Favourite Christmas Tunes

[ReservoirAngel]

Since that special time of peace and togetherness and all that jazz is upon us, I figure I should make this thread.

A large part of Christmas, for me, is the music. Might be just a hangover effect from listening to my mum blasting out her Christmas albums around this time of the year for my entire life, but I LOVE Christmas songs.

So I thought I'd ask people on here what their favourite Christmas song is.

For mine, see the spoiler:

It's not TECHNICALLY about Christmas, but it's associated with Christmas so much that I think it qualifies.

My other runners-up are:

Fairy Tale of New York comes first for me, always.

It's one of the few Irish things I'm proud of.

Love the arrangement. This, however, is not the original version by Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band.

I HATE Christmas music, but I love the holiday. I blame it on this one local station that plays nothing but Christmas music 24/7 from before Thanksgiving to around New Years that a co-worker of mine kept on the radio the whole time. The worst part? They only play like 10 different Christmas songs. Just because someone else is singing the Little Drummer Boy that does NOT make it a new song. The icing on the cake? They keep a contest going the whole time where they give people money if they call in after the station plays Jingle Bell Rock TWICE in a row. I seriously HATE Christmas music at this point. I hate going into stores, because they all play it around this time of year.

But I actually like this song.​

I wonder why...​
