    Seriously, that thing U2 did for Red last year(?) was pretty good.

    Or Slade / Wizzard.


    Father Christmas, great song and cover indeed
  3. Winter Wonderland has to be No.1 with Last Christmas by Wham! coming as a close second. Love Do They Know It's Christmas, too.
  4. That Bruce video is just magnificent. And I love U2's Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)...
  5. Can't believe I forgot 2000 Miles by The Pretenders. And what about Angel of Harlem ? Feels christmas-y to me.
  6. Great song by Mecca:


    And not forget U2 at their peak:

  7. Hands down for Jussi Bjorling's interpretation of O Holy Night.

    Just listen to this:


  8. 1. The Pogues- Fairytale of New York
    2. Band Aid- Do They Know its Christmas? (80's version)
    3. Wizzard- I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday
    4. John Lennon- War is Over
    5. Jona Lewie- Stop the Calvary
    6. Slade- Merry Christmas Everyone
    7. The Pretenders- 2000 Miles
    8. David Essex- A Winters Tale
    9. Frank Sinatra- Merry Little Christmas
    10. U2- I Believe in Father Christmas


  9. Am I missing something with this song? Everyone goes mad about it but it just bores me to tears and the guy cannot sing for toffee. He sounds as he likely was, pissed as a fart...
  10. ^ I love that song, but Shane MacGowan ruins it with his tone deaf drunken slurring.

    but it does give it some character, I suppose.
  11. Not really fond on Christmas songs, but I like Paul McCarney's little christmas tune the most....
  12. Last year I kept on listening to "I Believe In Father Christmas"... and this year it is just the same ! What a beautiful cover, I love Bono's voice on it!
