Well, not quite, but have succumbed and put the Christmas playlist onto the iPhone - get us in the mood for a visit to a Christmas market in Belgium tomorrow.

Just a small selection of 28 songs from the plethora of Christmas tracks hanging around my music library. Only a couple of your traditional well played tracks, and a few not so well played. Looking at the listing it got me to thinking about which was my favourite.....

Actually not that easy to choose, so I've gone for a top 5

Christmas Lights - Coldplay
Carol of the Bells - Celtic Woman
Shut up and let it snow - The Ting Tings
I believe in Father Christmas - Greg Lake
Twelve Days of Christmas - Felicity Lott

So what's your fav crimbo tune?

Fairytale of New York - The Pogues
Do they know its Christmas - Either version
Cant decide between these but am probably leaning towards Fairytale of New York!

 

[Iaing]

It's the 2nd of December. It is not Christmas.:angry:
Humbug.:angry::angry:

But I quite like Fairytale of New York.

Bah humbug Christmas this year means 6 months of no golf for me Right knee replacement on the 8th and left knee 3 months later - Last game on sunday will be a killer.

BTW its got to be the Pogues and Kirsty a timeless classic at no 1
Bings version of White Christmas at 2
Chris Rea at 3
Band aid at 4 but it has to be the original
and Solstice bells at 5 by Jethro Tull at 5

 

[robbest3offthetee]

Has to be Nat King Cole,, The christmas song," Chestnuts roasting on an open fire "

 

[MadAdey]

BAAAAHHHHH HUMBUG!!!!!!!!!!!

Still got 3 weeks to go. Avoiding Christmas songs at the minute cause any goods ones will get played to death over Christmas until you hate them. All that time off work.... but no golf for me cause of my broken shoulder. So when everyone is out on the 27th playing with their new stuff I will be at home wishing I was with them.

But Mariah Carey "all I want for Christmas is you" and she is more than welcome to have me...

Hate Christmas. Humbug.

Let it snow. Only decent tune out there.

 

[richart]

Xmas songs have to be naff and from your childhood, so I would go with Wizard. Bob and Smiffy probably favour Bing Crosby.:lol:

 

[Essex_Stu]

Would have to go with the Pogues, Band Aid then Wham!!!
