    The Pogues and Kirsty McCall - Fairytale of New York

    The Ramones - Merry Christmas (I Don't Want To Fight Tonight)

    Darlene Love - Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)

    Mariah Carey - All I Want for Christmas. Literally the only Mariah Carey song I will ever vote for!

    The Pogues and Kirsty McCall - Fairytale of New York VS Dean Martin - Winter Wonderland - Sacrilege, I know, but I am just fed up of FNY, and Dean is easy on the ear!

    Chris Rea - Driving Home for Christmas VS The Ramones - Merry Christmas (I Don't Want To Fight Tonight) - I like both but I prefer the first.

    Shakin Stevens - Merry Christmas Everyone VS Darlene Love - Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) - Can't go wrong with a backing band that includes some E Street Band members, plus I hate the other!

    Mariah Carey - All I Want for Christmas VS Elvis Presley - Lonely This Christmas - Not mad about either. The first is irritatingly catchy but overplayed, but the second is a bit sweeter.

    And that is the only Xmas related part of it. Even Shane said it wasn't a Christmas song.

    Sure what does he know? Bruce Willis tried to convince us that Die Hard isn't a Christmas movie, which is also clearly wrong, so I no longer believe a word that comes out of a celebrity's mouth.

    Songs that did not start as specifically Christmas songs:
    Fairy Tale of New York
    Stop The Cavalry
    The Power of Love (The Frankie Goes to Hollywood tune - there are a few songs around with that title)

    That's a thread for someone somewhere else.

    Wham - Last Christmas vs Gemma Hayes & Richard Egan - The Christmas song - Interesting quirky tune plus I'm fed up of the other.

    Bing Crosby - It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas vs Meaghan Trainor - I'll be Home - Easy on the ear and, having had a quick listen to the other, there is no contest there.

    Andy Williams - It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year vs The Eagles - Please Come Home for Christmas - Nice vocal from Don Henley.

    Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas vs Frankie Goes To Hollywood - The Power of Love - An all-time classic, and the best of the various Band Aids.
