Favourite Christmas song and Christmas movie?

[PeppermintLatte]

What's yours?

Mine is Fairytale of New York, and favourite movie is Love Actually. I also love those cheesy made for tv Christmas movies

Song: there's only one.
The Pogues version of "FairyTale of New York" (not the Ronan Keating one. I hear the first couple of notes, my hope rises.Then I realise I've been conned and I feel stabby)

Film: "Love Actually"

Film - Elf

Song - Walking in a winter wonderland, (or Santa Baby.)

I keep thinking I should make my own Christmas music compilation with the original versions of almost everything and that way I can avoid all the remixed tutty rubbish.

Film: Santa Claus the Movie (Childhood favourite, exactly how I imagine Santa and his workshop!)
Song: can't decide - it's a toss up between Fairytale of New York (I find the musical parts so wistful and romantic) or I believe in Father Christmas by Greg Lake (Reminds me of my childhood and my dad singing it on his guitar) again, love the musical parts.
Also all I want for Christmas by Maria is guaranteed to get me in the Christmas party spirit!
Oooh I love christmas! Yay!

I love Mickey Rooney in 'Home For Christmas'.
Also 'Christmas With The Kranks' and Danny De Vito in 'Deck The Halls'

Alongside the more well known films 'Miracle on 34th St', 'Its A Wonderful Life', 'Santa Claus 1,2 and 3'.....

oh and 'The Grinch'.

Song? The Eagles version of 'Please Come Home For Christmas'

Another one here for Fairytale of New York. I also really like the Doris Day Christmas album and her version of walking in a winter wonderland although we sing walking round in women's underwear...

Film has got to be The Snowman.

The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey (makes me cry)
Polar Express (makes me cry)
Elf (makes me laugh)

Song - has to be that old chestnut... The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole, sat infront of an open fire, glass in hand...... can't wait...... roll on Christmas.

i dont think i can choose. i love everything about christmas (except the cost) and love almost all songs and films about it. best films probably miracle on 34th street or christmas with the kranks, song maybe all i want for christmas or santa baby. not sure though

Judy Garland singing "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas."

Film...hmmm! I love so many! Arthur Christmas was so lovely, also love Love Actually. And I always watch Little Women while wrapping presents.

But I think it's got to be the 1994 Miracle on 34th Street.

I've never heard Fairytale of New York before! I love it. :)

Favourite song is Just Like Christmas by Low.

Film - It's a wonderful life.

My favourite song has to be Celine Dion's version of war is over
Favourite film is either muppets xmas or Elf.

O holy night and favourite film is The Polar Express

Song-toss up between mariah's all I want for Christmas is you and wizard I wish it could be christmas everyday
Film-muppet Christmas carol or home alone 1&2
Haven't seen nativity but hoping it will be on telly this xmas as lots of people have said it's a good film.

Song: Fairytale of New York. It's not Christmas till I've heard that
Film: It's a wonderful life. Although no one else likes it so I ed up watching on ny own

Santa Claus the movie, wham last Christmas. Can't wait for Christmas this year!

So here it is Merry Christmas,everybody's having fun.....(don't know what it's actually called)

and

The Poseidon Adventure. Love it.

Mary's Boy Child by Boney M
In Dulce Jubilo by Mike Oldfield
Little Drummer Boy by David Bowie and Bing Crosby

DH loves Fairytale of New York, I can't stand it, makes my teeth go on edge (and I'm talking about the Pogues/McColl version, didn't know there was any other)

Film - haven't seen most of those listed (not a big film watcher) but I do like Love Actually.

I love 'When a Child is Born'- Johhny Mathis, I always get a lump in my throat when I hear it since becoming a mum
And I do love 'Miracle on 34th Street' -might have to buy that to watch with dd(3) this year!

This thread has made me feel proper warm and Christmassy!

I fancy a Snowball now and some cheeselets
