Your FAVE Christmas song!

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

C’mon it’s as good as Christmas already!

I know you all love it, so let’s hear it.. tell us your fave Christmas choon, Fabsters!

Maybe it’s modern, maybe it’s traditional, maybe it’s a carol or something a little offbeat?

Me? Well from a traditional perspective I like Carol of the Bells, but for a pop-tastic festive song you can’t beat a bit of Shaky and Merry Christmas Everyone!

Carol of the Bells is so good! It's the perfect Gothic, dark Christmas sort of music.

I do have a soft spot for a rather problematic song. And Fairytale of New York.

I wonder how many of you know this wonderful song "Nothing but a Child" by Steve Earle - with gorgeous harmonies provided by Maria McKee. You may thank me later.

Wrapped in red - Kelly Clarkson is a cracking tune.

And It came upon a midnight clear is a great sing, plus it has the best descant

I liked him with Queen, but other than that I hate everything from him.

It doesn't make him less talented though.

I would rather have a pine tree or a cactus in my arse, than listen to Last Christmas one more time.

Ok, it's a half decent tune - but how is it a Xmas song?? No reference to Xmas or even winter in the lyrics - its basically another love song.....

Well it was released around Xmas and has jingly Christmassy bells ringing in it ergo it must be festive

(No, I don’t understand why either, but it keeps their royalties flooding in every November and December so I doubt they’re complaining!)
