Away in a manger
No crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus sat up and he said...

Last Christmas - Wham
Driving Home For Christmas - Chris Rea
Perfect Christmas - S Club 7
Santa Baby - Kylie
All I Want For Christmas - Mariah Carey


I like most of them actually, the only one that really annoys me is that Pogues Fairytale Of New York one. It's so depressing. The Ronan Keating & Maria Brennan version is slightly better, but not much.

 

[Jam The Man]

There are actually loads of decent Christmas tracks, but people don't like to admit it!

 

[sonicyouth]

that cavalry one.

 

[rexwedge]

Step into Christmas by the fat bloke with the wig.

 

[B.M.F]

pipes of peace is a quality tune as is just about everything by the trans siberian orchestra

 

[Frutos]

The Ronan Keating & Maria Brennan version is slightly better, but not much.

You have GOT to be kidding me. Keating does to this exactly what he does to any song he covers - turned it into dull, emotionless, syrupy ballad dross.

That version of the song falls into the Daniel O'Donnell category of "safe, harmless music for the nearly dead", and is certainly not a patch on the original IMO

 

[Djmiles]

Chris Rea - Driving home for Christmas
Shakin Stevens - Merry Christmas Everyone

 

[Muhammed - I’m hard - Bruce Lee]

frosty the snowman

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I'm getting the feeling you don't like it then Frutos ?
