BECAUSE YOU DON'T EVEN LIKE THE COCTEAUS.

Just heard it on youtube.

Off for my Christmas dinner now.

I actually feel a little bit of cheer about it.

I believe in Father Christmas - Greg Lake Fairy Tale of New York - Pogues Sleigh Ride - The Ronettes (ring a ling a ling ding dong ding!)

Mike Oldfield 'Dulce Et Dublio' (played air guitar to this when I worken in a shop as a youngster)

The Waitresses 'Christmas Wrapping' (think that's what it's called?)

Shaky 'Merry Christmas Everyone'. (I have a DJ mate who ends his set with this everytime he plays, regardless of the time of year)

i might swap mariah for darlene love - christmas (baby please come home). there are too many good ones. what about wham?

if this had been MY thread i might have made it top five.

I hate christmas songs. Especially "Last christmas" :barf:.

bah humbug! how can you say that? it's a masterpiece. and what a video...

however, i did not know this:

"Due to perceived similarities between "Last Christmas" and the song "Can't Smile Without You" as popularised by Barry Manilow, an out of court settlement was reached in which the first year's royalties were donated to the one-year-old "Band Aid" charity."

I heard it too often. I can't stand it anymore.

When we had CDs running at work (I'm working in a movie theatre) we had the x-mas CDs running until mid-January. And if you have to listen to X-mas songs for 2 months, repeating every hour you are going to hate them. Thankfully we now play music from a fully packed computer hard disc.

Christmas songs make me agressive since those days.

Fairy Tale of New York - Pogues and Kirsty McColl Last Christmas - Wham Christmas Wrapping - Waitresses (I'm not sure if it's called that either)

Oliver Cromwell had the right idea.

Have about 25 Christmas albums, hard to pick three outta them... top three albums though:

Carpenters Christmas Portrait Ray Connif Singers Merry Christmas Beach Boys Christmas Album

and all ya scrooges can just piss off!:D

Merry Christmas, I Don't Wanna Fight Tonight - The Ramones Christmas in Hollis - Run D.M.C. Last Christmas - Wham! (Could turn anyone gay for 4 minutes)

Never heard most of the song you lot mentioned

I like: Winter Wonderland White Christmas Blue Christmas

I'm with the Belgian Order on this one 100%

Except, Silent Night, it's a fabulously emotive piece of music.

DO love me Chrimbo though.

PS: Bog off Jarvis

Stick around, the HSE will finish what he started sooner or later.

Just read that Elton John and the Killers are teaming up to release an Xmas song

How quickly can a band lose all sense of credibility?

And why hasnt anyone mentioned 'Hey Santa Claus, you c___' by Kevin 'Bloody' Wilson?

i think mr neil tennant's in on the act too.

don't the killers have form when it comes to crimbo songs?
