They are all shit, although that Greg Lake one, whatever it’s called, is possibly slightly less shit than all the others

If you can't enjoy this then you have a lump of ice for a heart...

There's only one way to enjoy Christmas, and that's with the Ramones.

Hey Ho Ho Ho let's go.

Perfect selection to follow The Ronettes there Kayak.

How about something from the Godfather?

Best for me is 'Killing in the Name Of', it really was a Xmas Miracle and before anyone complains it's "not really a Xmas song" well neither are 'The power of Love' 'stop the cavalry' or 'Baby it's cold outside', but if I was going to bend to convention, I'd say '2000 miles' by the Pretenders (which isn't a Xmas song either).

Worst - Last Christmas. I love a bit of George Michael, less so Wham, but it's toss.

There's some good out there, in amongst all the rubbish. Hip hop, for a start:

Or the very traditional:

Not really a Christmas song but had Christmas in the title so it totally counts:

And because I'm a redneck:

Stop spouting guff and just pick a bloody Christmas song.

Sheesh.

This little ditty could almost pass for a Paul McCartney number, in fact, I thought it was hearing it as a 15-year old back in Dec 1988!

I hate December these days, because I'm an SAD sufferer and the impossible workload of being a postie killed off any Xmas joy I had for the past 10 years... Bah humbug!:(

Nothing wrong with the Greg Lake song, I like the cynical nature of the lyrics.
I like Jona Lewie’s Stop The Cavalry and Gaudete, plus this:

And these:

Not heard that in ages..... Very good.
Def sounds like McCartney!

Music? All Christmas songs are, at best, rubbish

Isn’t a more pertinent question, when are you watching Elf?

Popped in to add the song that Lister posted the YouTube link for. (It's not a RickRoll). Memories of Christmas post working returned.

I ****ing hate that stop the cavalry one.

I quite like the waitresses one, Christmas rapping or something. It's still shit but there's something about it that makes it less shit. Probably because it's basically about boning...

This has got the word Christmas in the title and is utterly gorgeous, but I don’t know if it qualifies as a Christmas song as it isn’t shit

Stop the Cavalry is my winner...I taught my daughter how to wash in the shower and get her hair all clean with that tune!
