No, no, no. Not possible to choose. So many contenders. I could not choose 1 from the following short list, they change daily at Christmas.

The Pogues - A Fairytale of New York.
Wizard - I wish it could be Christmas Everyday.
Mariah Carey - All I want for Christmas is you.
Chris Rea - Driving home for Christmas.

Worthy mentions go to:

Chris De Burgh - A spaceman came travelling
Slade - Merry Christmas Everybody
Shaking Stevens - Merry Christmas Everyone
Status Quo - It's Christmas Time

I doubt many people outside of the UK will be aware of this version of Wham's "Last Christmas" by James Dean Bradfield of the Manic Street Preachers. It was on TFI Friday many years ago, and is brilliant. Check it out.


How cosy is that? Filmed in a bar, Richard and Judy chillin with a beer in the crowd. TFI was awsome.

Depends on my mood...so very moody...like the other day Little Drummer Boy, or, one version of it came on the radio and there I was rum-bum-bumming along with it. I am a poor boy, too, a rump-a-bump-bum. And then I got to thinking well yeah right why not give the little Jesus your drum? Imagine the outcome of that? Ringo would be the greatest thing since...ummm...something...instead of just back there behind Paul and John. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is okay, too. White Christmas. Silent Night. Da Yoopers' Dashing Through the Snow (in my Rusty Chevrolet). I like Away in a Manger...especially when a bunch of little kids sing it...all self-conscious and shining in their best...some of them shy, some of them not shy at all.
Little Drummer Boy's my favorite by far. I like a lot of them…
