All time favourite Christmas song?

Mines got to be Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas by Frank Sinatra, but the modern versions (Buble, Sam Smith Et al) are also grand.

This song just instantly puts me in the Christmas mood. Hot chocolates, stockings hanging from the fireplace, cosy jumpers, frost on the windows, love and laughter Smile

The others I love are It's Beginning To Look a Lot Like Christmas, Merry Christmas Everyone. and Silent Night (ok that's a carol, but same thing).

"Oh What a Merry Christmas Day"

Yes, the one from Mickey's Christmas Carol.

I'll see myself out...

All I want for Christmas is youuuuuuu Mariah

All the classics. Gets me in the christmas spirit. Our local radio station will play 24/7 christmas songs from 1st til boxing day.

All the recent stuff is shit. Especially the covers. Just dont have the same ring to them.

Although I am loving The Prayer by Pentatonix. I love a few of their versions of Christmas songs.

Oooh so many! I've had to do a top ten, in no particular order:

Christmas in Hollis - Run DMC
Merry, Merry Christmas - NKOTB
Oh Holy Night - Il Divo
Happy Xmas War is over -John & Yoko
Silver Bells - Michael Bublé
Christmastime - Bryan Adams
The most wonderful time of the year - Andy Williams
2000 Miles - Pretenders
Happy New year - Abba
Last Christmas - Wham

My favourite Band Aid is actually Band Aid 2 of Stock, Aiken & Waterman fame. I can't find it on any streaming platform except YouTube, but Matt Goss and Jason Donovan absolutely nail 'Bono' s line'.

I have just realised I am a huge ball of cheese! Grin

yes! Band Aid 20! It is on Spotify, I have it in my xmas playlist and have done since 2014 Blush

Andy Williams 'The Most Wonderful Time of the Year'. I loved his Christmas specials as a kid.
Also think not much beats Mariah Carey's 'All I Want for Christmas'.

Not that one, I mean Band Aid 2!

I'm showing my age now, but it was around 1989 and featured, Kylie, Wet Wet Wet, Bananarama, Cliff Richard, Jimmy Somerville, Sonia, Jason Donovan, Bros.,and a whole host of others famous at the time.

It was one of those versions that most 'muso's' wouldn't even acknowledge as it was done by SAW, who were even at the time berated for their backing track music, and I'm not sure I liked it at the time when I was a young teenager but I love it now, and it brings back so many memories!

Highly worth a watch!

White Wine in the Sun by Tim Minchin.
Wonderful Christmastime by Paul McCartney.
Candy Cane Lane by Sia
The First Noel is my favourite carol.

I have a whole 7 hour Christmas playlist on Spotify and I have no shame. I will listen to it anytime of year.
