OMG I am feeling soooo Christmassy looking at all these song titles! Especially Frank Sinatra "Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas" - love that song, makes me feel so warm and cosy, can imagine myself in front of the fire with a glass of mulled wine and the snow falling outside:D:P

Ah Leahyl, that's my dream Christmas right there...... I love you George.

Technically not a Christmas song but it's the only time I hear it on the radio - even Pat Kenny plays it. I think anyone who has loved & lost can relate to this one....

Ah lovely song washiskin! I am familiar with the song -had heard it before but didn't know who sang it - tbh still don't have a clue who he is! And I didn't know the lyrics were Christmassy either, kind of just knew the tune!

Oh btw milli milli - there's no O Holy Night on your list :-O one of my all time favourite carols!!

Great list milli. I also start putting together my Christmas playlist in June!!

Here's some suggestions to add to an already great list: Little Drummer Boy – Bing Crosby and David Bowie, the instrumental for Walking in the Air from The Snowman is great too (you can get it on iTunes from the ‘Piano Music for Christmas’ compilation), Wonderful Christmas Time – Paul McCartney, Queen – Thank God it’s Christmas, Mariah Carey – All I want for Christmas is You, I Believe in Father Christmas – Greg Lake, Lonely This Christmas - Mud

This thread reminds me of a good Late Late Show thread we had last year, where we posted our favourite Christmas songs. Starts at about post 508

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions. Keep em coming!

I can't believe I've missed some obvious ones. And some songs I just wou;dnt even know or thought of, so thanks for that.

A really funny one I heard in some Christmas film was Feliz Navidad. I don't know why I think it's funny.
