Whats the best Christmas Song??

Victor_Meldrew

As far as I'm concerned, it's not Christmas 'til I've heard Fairytale of New York. Although, I do like a bit of Drivin' home for Christmas too, I must admit.

Sherifu

Wham - Last Christmas

Christmas purity.

What a song.

Mew - She Came Home For Christmas

I think's it's been re-released every Christmas for the past two or three years. Never seems to make it big though.

can't believe nobody mentioned John Lennon's - Happy Christmas (War is Over).

U2's New Year's Day on Jan 1st is also good.
