Favourite Christmas song.

[Mark Bolam]

It’s been a bit doom and gloom in here recently.

Let’s have a happy thread.

 

What’s your favourite Christmas song?

Whys and back-stories will all add to the mulled wine flavour.

Also, why have there been no Christmas classics for about the last 20 years?

 

Christmas haters - I don’t want to hear it, find another thread.

Thanks.

 

I’ll kick off by cheating with two.

Fairytale of New York followed very closely by Driving Home for Christmas.

Within reason I like all of them. Once December comes it's nice to hear them again, I'll choose 'christmas wrapping' by the waitresses (I think that's right) and for a newer one 'Christmas time' by the darkness.
