What’s your favourite Christmas song ( not carol )

FoghornLeghorn

Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer. 😂

I think I mentioned that earlier in the thread but it didn’t get any takers😂

"Mary did you know" sung by Celo Green is a beautiful song.

White Wine In The Sun by Tim Minchin. It sums up perfectly what a lot of people feel about Christmas.

Fairytale of New York by the Pogues and Blue Christmas by Elvis.

Same my grandson loves that song.

Oh, Foghorn, how my GC enjoy that song!

Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer. 😂

I like lots of Christmas songs but the two main ones that stick out from my teenage years are ....

Slade Merry Xmas Everybody &
Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday

Grandma70s

I don’t know many of the songs mentioned, but I do like Walking in the Air, if that counts,

I think it counts. I like it too. I mentioned it as one of my favourites way back on page 2.

anything but the pogues fairytale of new york, i turn the radio down if it comes on. Do like Frankie goes to Hollywoods power of Love

I don’t know many of the songs mentioned, but I do like Walking in the Air, if that counts,

It has to be Chris Rea and Driving Home Fot Christmas. I have always loved his music and this year it has a special poignancy.

Mine is Stop The Cavalry (Jonah Lewie?)
I know lots of people really dislike it but I find myself humming it when it’s played on the radio.

I like that too. My absolute favourite though i,s Santa's a Scotsman - only ever played by Ken Bruce when he was on radio 2 and now on Greatest Hits Radio. His fans are up in arms on FB if it's not played on 1st December!,

Wham's Last Christmas and The Pougues Fairly Tale of New York. Do not like Kylies Xmas, her nasal voice developed over the past few years is awful.

I love them all - the cheesier the better! But. Id hate to be working in a shop this time of year!

I love all the Phil Spector Christmas songs but when I hear “White Christmas “ by Bing Crosby I get a tear in my eye as it was my mum’s favourite Christmas song . I sing along to the 70s stuff by Slade, Wizzard, Shaking Stevens, Mud and even the Wombles!

Mary's Boy Child ...Boney M

I Believe in Father Christmas by Greg Lake is my favourite with the little bit of Prokoviev in the middle.

And David Essex A Winter's Tale I had forgotten, but will now Google it.

Happy Christmas everybody.

I absolutely love Scarlet Ribbons, it has all of the wonder, tells a story and has beautiful & simple melodies.

Slade. Happy Christmas Everybody!

Driving home for Christmas and sadly I’ve just heard that Chris rea has died

'The Mince Pie' song by Santa (always love to sing-a-long to it).

I like Let It Shine 😃

I Love - East 17 “Stay another Day” 😍

A Winter's Tale by David Essex.

Never heard of that one, must google it.
