The Ramones - Merry Christmas I Don't Want To Fight Tonight
Two great shouts by Neil McD, but Bing is Mr Christmas, and this is the classic one:
This is the best one:
And of course, there's this, mawkish, cheesy, and utterly gorgeous!
Another great source of Christmas tunage is the mighty Tull, such as A Christmas Song here, live by Ian Anderson and band. Original is here.
And Ring Out Solstice Bells
A Christmas album from ex-Grandaddy man Jason Lytle available on a free download from his website-

Stay Another Day is an excellent song...
Wedding Present - No Christmas (with a little 120minutes nostalgia thrown in)
Ooh, and The Crystals (or any of that album):
Something slightly different:
my favourite of the traditional christmas songs is Oh Holy Night. Gives me shivers up and down my spine.
Best 21st century xmas song. Beautiful
Oh yes;):
Bit of a sad Christmas one:
... I dunno. I prefer the simple honesty of the exercise on display here.Quote:

Wait, wait ...I'm still tuning up my banjo.

I'd like to nominate schmalzy Christmas Ballad:
"Killing in the Name" by Rage Against the Machine.
Any more to be added to this thread?
It’s Cliched to be Cynical at Christmas
Now how did I guess
You were going to express
Your disdain at the crane
With the bright fairy lights
And you moan at the snow
‘Cos your car wouldn’t go
Oh it’s cliched
To be cynical
At Christmas
You don’t have a tree
And your smile has a fee
All the same, here’s a card
For your boring facade
Jingle Bells, piney smells
All the boys and the girls
Say it’s cliched
To be cynical
At Christmas
Oh it’s cliched
To be cynical
At Christmas
See how we yawn
At your bile and your scorn
It’s a beautiful day
Peace on Earth has been played
Make a noise with your toys
And ignore the killjoys
‘Cos it’s cliched
To be cynical
At Christmas
Oh it’s cliched
To be cynical
At Christmas
I saw three ships
Come sailing in
Come sailing in
Come sailing in
I saw three ships
Come sailing in
On Christmas Day
In the morning
