O Holy Night is lovely.
I think my favourite in-the-mood Christmas song though is probably The Christmas Song by Cliff Richard. I think that's what it's called - everybody sway with me: "Christmas time.... Mistletoe and wine...". I dunno why I like it so much, especially since I wasn't brought up with all the traditions he mentions and I don't usually like his music (too old!!). But I do have a special place for that one.sv -------------  |

Fairytale of New York is my absolute favourite.
I think, mainly, because it has bad words in it, and I could sing them when I was younger and Mum couldn't get mad 'cos I was quoting

I love this song too. Judy Garland has so much depth (so much sadness) in her voice when she sings. -------------

What's that other song that came out (not a Christmas one) after the Twin Towers collapsed, where the kid talks through the song about how much he misses his parent...? ------------- |

hehe perhaps for some this one is more appropriate
..... Bah Hum.. No thats too strong! Cause it's my favorite holiday But all this years been a busy blur Don't think I have the energy to add to my already mad rush just because it is the season the perfect gift for me would be completions and connections left from last year world tour, aeroplanes and babies. Met some guys but never the time most of 98 was along those lines. so deck the halls and trim those trees raise up the cups of Christmas cheer I just need to catch my breath Christmas with my mates this year Calendar picture Frozen landscape chill this room for twenty four days evergreens, sparkling snow, get this winter over with flash back to spring time, sunny again would have been good to go for lunch couldn't agree when we were both free we tried, we said we'd keep in touch, we didn't of course till the summer time, out to the beach to his boat could have joined him no this time, it was me, sunburn in the third degree now the calendars just one page and of course I am excited tonight's the night but I've set my mind not to do too much about it. Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year Hardly dashing through the snow cause I bundled up too tight last minutes have-to-dos a few cards, a few calls because it's R S V P no thanks, no party lads it's christmas eve, gonna relax turn down all of my invites last fall I had a night to myself some guy called halloween party waited all night for him to show this time his car wouldn't go forget it, it's cold, it's getting late trudge on home to celebrate in a quite way I unwind, doing christmas right this time Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think i'll miss this one this year Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think i'll miss this one this year Tesco has provided me with the world's smallest turkey all ready in the oven, nice and hot oh damn, guess what I forgot so it's on with the boots back out in the snow to the army all night garage but when to my wondering eyes should appear in the line that guy i've been chasing all year spending this one alone he said give me a break this years been crazy I said me too, but why are you... you mean you forgot the papers too then suddenly we laughed and laughed caught on to what was happening Christmas magic's brought this down to a very happy en-ending. Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year Merry Christmas Merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year -------------

pah, christmas shoes isnt a Christmas in the park type one , its the same guy who sings Butterfly kisses....its more about a mum dying than christmas really ...actually , come to think of it , the only reason its a christmas song , is because they put in the word christmas infront of shoes ...sneaky !
I also like Christmas Is all around me , by Billy Mack in Love Actually ... -------------
