Your favourite Christmas songs

[tintinthegingertomcat]

As Christmas is just around the corner and the radio stations and shopping centres are now playing christmassy songs...what are your favourite?

1. Hey Mr Christmas - showaddywaddy (my fav group of all time)

2. All I want for Christmas - Mariah Carey

3. I wish it could be Christmas everyday - Wizzard

4. Another rock and roll Christmas - Shakin Stephens

5. Fairy Tale of New York - Pogues and Kirsty McColl

I also love to hear carols - especially when sung in Church and by the choir - can be quite haunting.

Over to you......................

Medieval Babes - Gaudete

Greg Lake - I Believe in Father Christmas

Loreena Mckennitt - Any of her Christmas/Winter songs in fact any of her songs she is awesome!  

Prokoviev - Sleigh ride or properly known as Troika.   A stunning piece of classical music. 

All of the above give me Christmas goose bumps!
