    Gemma Hayes & Richard Egan - The Christmas song. Didn't realise this was a proper song, I thought it was only for the Spar ad.
    Bing Crosby - It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas
    Andy Williams - It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year
    Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas. Only because, as much as I like it, The Power of Love is not a Christmas song. But somebody decided to give it a nativity based video and confused the hell out of people.

    I quite like it, and anything is better than that awful Wham song. Well except maybe that awful Chris Rea song.

    Godley and Creme were responsible for the video. Strictly speaking, there are two versions: one with FGTH looking down at the scene from the top of the screen, and one without!

    Had to vote against two of my own nominations there.

    Wham and Bing Crosby are classics though

    Is it too late for a late surge for Gemma Hayes and Richard Egan, and The Eagles? :(
