John Lennon - War is Over?
Elton - Step into Christmas?
One Christmas Catalogue - Captain Sensible?
Fairytale Of New York - The Pogues & Kirsty MacColl?
Run Rudolph Run - Chuck Berry?
Slade - Merry Xmas...?
Wizard..?
etc
(these just of the top of my head)
You gotta have one right?
Gotta be Christmas themed...
I don't ever wanna hear any of these post xmas.
Mine would be War is Over but, man I can't tolerate Yoko's whining which seems to get louder and louder towards the end of the song!!!
So Slade all the way for me, love the verses but yes the chorus gets annoying!
Choices please... |

"Thank God It's Not Christmas" (Sparks)
What do I hear, what do I hear?
Chit-chat, and clinking glass
Cheap talk, a lady's laugh
After hour
What do I see, what do I see?
Some sunken hideaway
Where people go to play
After hour
There I'll spend the night
Meeting fancy thins
At bistros and old haunts
Trying very hard to sin
Then it is day end in a way
The pattern's much the same
In-spots, a matinee
Every day
Blend with the crowd, blend with the loud
Hypnotic ebb and flow
Until the day goes slowly
Into night
See the same old crowd
At bistros and old haunts
'Til the lights grow dim,
The not-so-subtle hint to be gone
Chorus:
Thank God it's not Christmas
When there is only you
And nothing else to do
Thank God it's not Christmas
Where there's just you to do
The rest is closed to public view
Caroling kids, caroling kids
A trifle premature, in tones so rich and pure and crystaline
Call for the day, the popular day
It's fast approaching now
But will the mood allow
One dissent
If this were the Seine
We'd be very suave
But it's just the rain
Washing down the boulevard
(Chorus)
Popular days, the popular ways
Are for the chosen few
Not meant for me and you
Obviously
Popular nights, poplar rites
Great things to say and do
Aren't said or done by you
Obviously
If this were Seine
We'd be very suave
But it's just the rain
Washing down the boulevard |

Father Christmas by The Kinks:
When I was small I believed in Santa Claus
Though I knew it was my dad
And I would hang up my stocking at Christmas
Open my presents and I'd be glad
But the last time I played Father Christmas
I stood outside a department store
A gang of kids came over and mugged me
And knocked my reindeer to the floor
They said:
Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys.
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys to the little rich boys
Don't give my brother a Steve Austin outfit
Don't give my sister a cuddly toy
We don't want a jigsaw or monopoly money
We only want the real McCoy
Father Christmas, give us some money
We'll beat you up if you make us annoyed
Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys
But give my daddy a job 'cause he needs one
He's got lots of mouths to feed
But if you've got one, I'll have a machine gun
So I can scare all the kids down the street
Father Christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys to the little rich boys
Have yourself a merry merry Christmas
Have yourself a good time
But remember the kids who got nothin'
While you're drinkin' down your wine
Father Christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
Father Christmas, please hand it over
We'll beat you up, so don't make us annoyed
Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread, so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys to the little rich boys |

Well, not that it's my cup of tea, but I don't think all traditions should be abandoned lightly. I'd like to believe that Stones fans are more perceptive than most. But I guess the jury is still out. |

its the classics for me - rock and roll is too agressive, and i don't like the vibe of modern-day christmas muzak shit.
its all about nat king coe's christmas song, any charlie brown music, gene autry, judy garland's have yourself a merry little christmas, and andy williams and perry como specials - damn, i swear id watch those again....
only springsteen makes me feel all warm and fuzzy like those old guys on santa claus is coming to town....

Most of the greats have been mentioned, but one that was missed is Otis Redding's version of "Merry Christmas, Baby." |

Willie Nelson did that one "Grandma got run over by a reindeer." or something like that.
Come to think of it I've got a Dolly Parton Christmas cassette tape someplace. Time to dig it out I guess. |
