Christmas Songs that aren't about Christmas

    Just heard Annie Lennox and Al Green's "Put a Little Love" on the radio and thought to myself, other than being in the film Scrooged it's not really about Christmas.

    It got me thinking are there any other songs that get played every year at Christmas time that aren't about Christmas.

    The only other one I can think of is the East 17 song.

    Years ago the big Christmas song was Mulligan's Tyre.
