I love The Waitresses - Christmas Wrapping and Fairytale of New York (pettyprudence - are you me? Grin)

Carols I love Hark the Herald Angels Sing, The Holly and the Ivy....

Actually I love most Christmas songs but those are probably my favourites.

My all time is the Pogues one

Like the Phil Spector album and some of the Motown tracks - Jackson 5 & Stevie Wonder. Havent heard the Otis one will have to check that out.

Hate the traditional ones shops inflict on us Angry try to avoid shopping because of it.

Last Christmas I bought the 'Funny Looking Angels' album by Smith and Burrows and played it non-stop on the drive from Oxford to Edinburgh. It's a mix of original songs and covers. I think it's my favourite Christmas album now.

When the Thames froze -
As the Snowflakes Fall -
Wonderful Life -
Their cover of 'Only You' -

Otis Redding's version of White Christmas - completely different from the Bing Crosby version but so heartfelt and emotional

It has to be Fairytale of New York, because Shane Macgowan is a genius songwriter. Plus I have a crush on him :$
