I'll have to go with Fairytale Of New York too! Other favorites are The Power Of Love by Frankie Goes To Hollywood and You Ain't Getting Shit For Christmas…don't remember who it's by though. Oh yeah, Stiff Little Fingers' version of White Christmas always puts me in the festive mood. ;)

Band I love: Bleached
Holiday Song: Jingle Bells
https://youtu.be/9evlQXXMcn8

Nice fun punked-up version and the kind of song you could almost see yourself screaming along to in a pit of sweaty people (oh shit, we don't do that anymore)

Don't have a link, but the best christmas song without a doubt is Fairytale of New york by Shane MacGowan & Kirsty MaColl.

I'll fight anyone who disagrees!  :mad: 

Second is jonah louie, Send in the cavalry.


My wife had said that Fairytale sucks, and that the Maria Carey and Gorge Michael Xmas songs are best.
I guess there's going to be a fight.

Agreed on both. The Pogues absolutely suck though, and Wham does not.

One of favorite holiday albums still remains Sharon Jones & The Dap-kings, it was a great holiday show as well.

Brian Setzers Big Band Christmas albums are all fun listens

and i've taken one for the team and the Jon Bon Jovi cover of Fairytale of Christmas is truly awful, couldn't even get half way through it…

even steve lillywhite CBE took  to twitter to say  "The worst ever version of this song . Sorry Jon … embarrassing and pointless"
