[RichardCranium]

Seem to have misplaced my Christmas CD, shall download songs off itunes instead of searching for another one.

Mind has gone blank.

List your favourite song for me!

Thanking you.

band aid
fairytale of ny
bloody mariah - can't stand much else she sings but that is a great tune
santa claus is comin' to town - springsteen

nothing original there then

I remember seeing one like this last year and making a great christmas playlist on itunes that i bored everyone to death with

Happy Christmas War is Over, John Lennon

here

Fairytale of New York
Gaudette by Steeleye Span

Thank you EverythingCounts - funny, I was wondering what the Waitresses song was that everyone was talking about. Turns out it's one of my favourites .

Stop the Cavalry by Jonah Lewis and in the bleak mid winter with all the solo parts and twiddly bits. You can't beat the kids Christmas eve service for a bit of eye watering festive magic. Its what its all about after.

Oh, oh, yes! The entire Phil SPector album.

The Waitrresses one.

Although, when I am feeling very tasteful, I am fond of the sufyan stevens ones

AWAY IN A MANGER my total favourite of all time. My DD1 went to a non church shcool so i missed out on this for DD1, its DD2s nativity and she is at a catholic school - although she has some rather contemporary songs sung to the tune of nursery rhymes on friday, i shall be devestated if there is no Away in a manger, in fact, i think i might complain!!!

oh and for grown ups, fairy tale of NY, i love it - it has sooo many memories for me (mostly drunken ones [bluish]) I will sing at top of my voice in shops to this one!!

i like the jonah lewis one as well. did you know it wasnt originally a christmas song? they added bits.

mariah carey - all i want for xmas
pup in a christmas shop
mistletoe and wine - cliff

This is brilliant - going to download my ass oops, my, er head off.

Was nearly norty there. No more cussin'.

Fairytale of NY

and do they know its christmas

and space man came travelling

Low - Just Like Christmas

Or for when I'm feeling less upbeat, their cover of Blue Christmas is fab.

(hatebeak - yay for someone else who loves the Low Christmas album!)

Baby it's cold outside.

When a child is born by Johnny Mathis; reminds me of my mum

Although I have never really liked [ U2]] I do like their version of I believe in Father Christmas

"I'm falling the throught the air...
I wonder where I'm going to land,
He nicked my irn bru,
and let got of my hand...."

**through

**go

I saw Mummy killing Santa Claus...

another vote for low - just like christmas

also fairytale of new york, 2,000 miles, the phil spector lp and

big star jesus christ

also love sufjan stevens doing o come o come emmanuel

oo oo and i always put the edwin hawkin singers o happy day on my christmas cds.

and i do love johnny mathis - when a child is born too.
