Christmas songs

Oh I also like "Somewhere in my memory", which is the song John Williams wrote for "Home Alone".

Nat King Cole - The Christmas Song (Chestnuts roasting on an open fire) always does it for me.

And here's another one who loathes Fairy Tale of New York!

E17. 'Stay another Day' I don't know what it has to do with Christmas but I find the video mesmerising. DH laughs at their clothes and haircuts. We look forward to it every year ????

One does not think it's trendy to like like the Fairy Tale of NY one just likes it.....and one's husband likes it too!

Just another winters tale, David Essex , gets me every time ?

As this post is about Christmas songs as opposed to Christmas hymns my favourite would be "Mary's Boy Child" - Harry Belafonte.

We used to sing the Latin version at school and I've never forgotten it. I taught it to my step-daughter and she happily sings it too.

Adeste Fideles leiti triumphantes----O Come All Ye Faithful.

Silent night is my favourite Lemongrove.

Played carols cd this morning whilst wrapping presents, a bit early but was very nice.
I love
The holly and the ivy
Hark the herald angels sing
Silent night

Have Yourself A Merry little Christmas

But like Oldandverygrey, I prefer carols, too.
Can we have 25 of those?

In the Bleak Midwinter
The Coventry Carol
The Three Kings (my favourite)

Baby Its Cold Outside - particularly the Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews version.

Eartha Kitt - Santa Baby

Harry Belafonte - Scarlet Ribbons

And, of course The Pogues

Rockin' around the Christmas Tree

Oh Holy Night - I like the Andy Williams version

It was on a Starry Night - sang by children is just beautiful

Last Christmas, by Wham

Lonely this Christmas, by Mud

Darlene Love. All Alone at Christmas

I hate the Fairy Tale of NY as well.

I think it just became trendy to say one liked it

I like Darlene Lewis Christmas song. No idea what it's called

Do They Know It's Christmas - Band Aid

“I Believe In Father Christmas”-Greg Lake
‘Stay Another Day”-East 17.

White Christmas - Bing Crosby.

What about the Robbie Williams song Angels ( sort of Christmassy)

EV I really like the Jonah Lewie / Lewis?song, Stop The Cavalry, but you don’t hear it much now.
( it will be an ear worm all night now.)

Thanks threexnanny that’s the one!

Dean Martin
“Let it snow”
