Default Christmas songs

Come on then, what are your favourite Christmas songs or Xmas #1's?

They don't have to be songs about Xmas, they can just be hit songs that were around at Christmas time.

My favorite Christmas song is O Holy Night.

My least favorite is that arrogant, self-righteous, manipulative "Christmas Shoes."

I think it's by a group called New Song. The voice of the song is singing about last minute shopping and this kid coming into a shoe store to buy shoes for his dying mommy so she can be "beautiful" when she meets Jesus. And he doesn't have enough money, so the guy comes to the rescue and buys the shoes. It's like saying, "Am I great or what? I bought the kid the shoes! Yea me!"

Okay, this is supposed to be a Christian band--so why are they not telling the kid that Jesus is supposed to love everyone no matter what they look like; that theologically speaking, your clothes don't make it to heaven? Jesus isn't as shallow as the person who wrote that song.

I just got a cd called 'redneck christmas' or something to that effect and love the song '12 days to christmas' -- it's hilarious.


As real xmas songs, I can never get enough of Kenny G and Peanuts Christmas

I like the song U2 did.
I think Jon also covered it for one of the A very Special christmas concerts, but I don't remember the name of the song.

Christmas Baby (please come home) Not to be confused with Please come home for Christmas. Its a great tune I think the only version I have of it is a live performace by Jon a few years ago.

Fairytale of Newyork is my fave except it gets overplayed every year!!!

Thank God it's Christmas by Queen and Winter Wonderland, I also like that one by The Carpenters.. can't remember the name now.

My least favourite is that one by Paul McCartney.. that just gets on my nerves!
