Fairytale of New York is a classic all right. Never gets old in my opinion. I also like Coil's reworking of the traditional song "Christmas is Drawing Near".

Fairytale of New York has it all - Christmas Cheer, Christmas drear, loneliness and the nagging thought that who would have thought than Shane Mc Gowan would outlive Kirsty Mc Coll....?

Slade - "So here it is, merry christmas..."
or

Wizzard - "Oh I wish it could be Christmas every day..."
