Non Christmas songs that have become Christmas songs due to being in a film/advert/something else?

[mumofoneAloneandwell]

Mine is:

Bjork - Its oh so quiet

I think it was in a John Lewis ad years ago, but now its on my Christmas playlist 🥰

Pennies from Heaven thanks to Elf

Somewhere Only We Know - originally by Keane but covered for a JL ad by Lily Allen and now forever a Christmas song to me.

Havent heard this one will give it a listen

Can't wait for my yearly watch of Elf!

Yes definitely

Ive said this on another thread but Too Lost in You by the Sugababes thanks to Love Actually

God only knows by the beach boys

Love Actually?

Jump for my love as well for me 😄

Absolutely. Also as p.p said - beach boys 'God only knows' for same. A few more off that soundtrack but definitely not 'jump for my love' . Funny how we make these associations.
See my baby jive by Wizzard always to me sounds like it should be a Christmas song.

John Lennon - imagine and Woman always reminds me of Christmas just because it was in the charts in December 1980 after he was killed so that is quite hard wired into memory for me. Wouldn't put them on a christmas play list though.

’Only You’ by Kazoo - from The Office Christmas special. Still my favourite thing to watch in December!

That was number 1 at Christmas too!

What was the east 17 song? Was it Say another Day

frankie goes to Hollywood - The Power of Love

Well, the flying pickets version anyway.
Another for me- caravan of love- housemartins

Stay Another Day by East 17. Really not a Christmas song as the songwriter wrote it about his brother who died by suicide:(

Wasn’t originally a Christmas song but was in the carts for so long in the run up to Christmas, they added bells to it when they thought it might be Christmas nr 1

Out of Reach by Gabrielle from the first Bridget Jones film.

We have Earth Song on our Christmas playlist because it was a Christmas number one. Not christmassy at all otherwise 😂

Omg 🥺

😄 agree with this

Hallelujah by alexandra Burke for me

Yes definitely god only knows from the airport scene

I know, things just stick with you

Oh imagine by John lennon, yes

Although it wouldnt be on my playlist either

Another one if mine is

Piano Man by Billy joel

No idea why but its on the playlist

We have Tinsel and Glitter on our list too, just for the title (and because we like it), it's not remotely anything to do with Christmas and I don't care:

Dido

Here with me

😄😄 Just the entire love actually playlist really

Also, Fever covered by Beyonce - not sure if it was a xmas ad though

Forgot to attach photo of this guy yearning for keira knightly
