Shamefully, I have to give it to "Proper Crimbo - Bo Selecta"

If it were a serious answer I'd probably give it to The Pogues also, great song. Bob says:

There are so many its hard to choose. I like lots of the more recent songs including the 3 mentioned already however a favourite has got to be one from many years ago. It is "Mary's Boy Child" sung by Harry Belafonte and it always makes me think of my Mum.

I've only listened to the Boney M version before today, but I like the version sung by Harry Belafonte.

At the risk of sounding like Scrooge, I really can't abide Christmas music any more.
I worked in pubs and clubs for years where it was played non-stop so I've heard them all too many times.

I do have a couple of nice Christmas music memories though - going to see Slade one December where (of course) they did Merry Christmas Everybody, then Wings a few years later, who performed Wonderful Christmas Time.

For me, it has to be this bueatiful song. O Helga Natt, performed by Sissel.

Another is Dansaðu Vindur

Same for me, really. I haven't worked (much) in a pub or club, but just every Christmas season everywhere you go it's the same songs played on repeat endlessly until the first or second week of January...

Right now, the "big box" stores are running their Christmas ads on TV and they're supposed to be clever parodies of the classic songs, all designed to endorse their product.

Christmas has been shanghai'd by the retail industry. :@
