What's your favourite Christmas song?!

leahyl · 05-10-2010 01:07PM #1

I have so many but i absolutely love O Holy Night - such a beautiful carol and i love being in a church and hearing that sung right! Also love Last Christmas, Merry Christmas (Everyone) by Shakin Stevens and of course Have yourself a merry little Christmas by Judy Garland! Oh and also The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole and White Christmas by Bing Crosby!:D

Oh i'm feeling all christmassy today!

The Bellamy Brothers have a great Christmas Album " Tropical Christmas"
You should listen to "We all get crazy at Christmas" and "Old Hippie Christmas"
Funny and Different

Its going to be 19' in Ireland this Sunday. I'm going to the beach in Whitegate, not Christmas shopping.

desolate sun · 05-10-2010 09:04PM

I wish I could stay my all time fave was Fairytale of my New York (which I do really like) but the Christmas song that I adore and turns me into a grinning eejit is Shakin Stevens Merry Christmas Everyone.

But I have a whole made-up CD of Christmas songs covering every era and style. Oldies and classics. Love old 50s Christmas songs and the Ronettes Sleigh Ride. Wham Last Christmas, Elton John Step into Christmas.
Also Christmas carols

Good for you enjoy! Although 19 degrees is hardly reason to go to the beach - by the time you get down there it'll be about 10 degrees cooler anyway - and you think we're out of our minds here!:D

Staph · 06-10-2010 07:42AM

Love this!! Not exactly a christmas song, more a winter song. Absolute magic with Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. :pac:

elvis jones · 14-10-2010 08:42AM

Gotta be Jingle Bell Rock. I work as a dj and its the one Christmas song i always have to play it ( if only for myself )

Uriel. · 14-10-2010 08:49AM

Oh Holy Night for me definitely. My favourite of all time. Was my Grandad's fave too. He died an hour or so before Christmas Eve last year and the hymn was played during his funeral mass on Stephens' Day.

It will always have great meaning for me and nothing will ever replace it as my favourite, despite its connection to sadness.

Noffles · 14-10-2010 08:55AM

Wizzard I wish it could be christmas everyday.... classic sing out loud track!

olaola · 18-10-2010 10:43AM

And I really adore Charlie Brown Christmas

I love loads, but this one never fails to get me more into the spirit

KungPao · 22-10-2010 12:09AM

Maybe not exactly a Christmas song, perhaps more of a seasonal song.

But I love it, makes me feel cold!

I'm cringing as I write this but Chris De Burgh's a Spaceman came Travelling is one of my favourites!

laurashambles · 01-11-2010 04:23PM

Yes esp when you are actually driving home for Christmas and it comes on the radio!:D

Kdylass · 04-11-2010 01:49PM

It has to be John Lennon - Happy Christmas (War is Over). Once I hear the opening line starting... 'And so this is Christmas and what have you done' I'm in a very happy place..:D

Miss Lockhart · 06-11-2010 10:14PM

Carol of the Bells or A Spaceman Came Travelling.

And I know it's not really a Christmas song, and it's probably all the ESB's fault, but I love to listen to Dusty Springfield's Goin' Back.

Radharc na Sleibhte · 07-11-2010 06:04PM

Anything with Frank Sinatra:
It Came Upon A Midnight Clear
I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day

What's your favourite Christmas song?!
