I quite like Christmas songs but at this time of year I do get fed up with hearing the same ones over and over again.

I too love Wham. The Springsteen version of Santa Claus is coming to town is one I like too along with Fairytale of New York.

My parents loved Jim Reeves and we always had his Christmas Album playing at Christmas in our house. Even now it doesn't really feel like Christmas for me until I have heard the album.

Ah ok Joe, not sure what one that is then. We need JulesYog back here as she was the expert on all things George Michael

December Song (I dreamed of Christmas)

Fairytale of New York is my favourite as well, Veggie.  When you listen to the words it's not exactly full of peace and goodwill, though,  is it?

Mine too

And ... that Bubbles man's new CD is jolly nice - I listened to it twice through whilst putting the tree up yesterday 

Sinead O'Connor's version of Silent Night gives me goosebumps 

Oooo Pengy! that does that to me too. Haunting isn't it? 

Okay I am going to be controversial now.

Fairy tale of New York is not ( IMO) the greatest Christmas song ever.

IN fact  it has probably been played to death.

I am actually bored with it now.

So there

it sure is Sprout 

do I admit to also liking Gaudete   

I love Gaudete. Was the female singer called Maddy Prior? What a voice

it was Veggie 

On the 'Silent Night' front, this is rather nice

It was Veggie?

Well who would have guessed

That's a good version too Avalon 

I also like Gaudete as well. *Goes to play and remind self*

this reminded me that used to love Steeleye Span (I've still got Now We Are Six on vinyl somewhere)... I went googling and found they were still touring this year.. and saw this...

For Steeleye's Spring 2011 tour, the first half set consisted of them playing the album in its entirety, some 37 years after it was first released.     

*spanks Eileen*

Bloomin eck Kaffy! 37 years! 

I like that one too Avalon

I'm quite happy to open myself up to derision and ridicule simply because .......................I just love this one

Can't stand the blooming Carey woman...or any crimbo songs mullered by Westlife/Britney/other rubbish peeps!

LURVE Jim Reeves singing Silver Bells, When a Child Is Born by Johnny Mathis always gets me too. Also love the crimbo stuff by Enya. In Dolci Jubilo by Mike Oldfield is another fave along with the afore mentioned Gaudette. In fact, there are few I can't stand!!! 

To get me in the mood.....

As any credibility I ever had has gone down the pan - I'll post this one!

Another fave tune!!

Ooo Mrs B  you've made me think again of one by Paul McCartney I played earlier that I also love as well as the one you've posted 

Love, love love that one ^^^^^^^

Joe, Radio 2 at the minute seems like every band and their Mother and brothers have brought out a Christmas song. *wrinkles nose smiley*

I love singing this one.....even though I can't sing it 

Don't we all? I'm singing it right now ............sounds fab - to me 

Wham  ahh thems were the days.

I think thats my favourite Christmas song, along with the Paul McArtney one

Love this song & the video.
