Your Favourite Christmas Tune

OK - so to start with, enough of the politically correct Happy Holiday greeting - it's called Christmas folks - and frankly I don't know too many followers of other religions (or athestists by the way) who are offended by the celebration.


To date, I haven't seen the rush to politically cleanse Ramadan or refrain from wishing anyone a happy Hanukkah - so let's get off the bandwagon people.

Rant now officially over.

Now - back to Christmas.

After years of dredging out John Lennon's War is Over and Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas - seems radio stations are finally waking up to the fact there are more than just a couple of festive season favourites among the masses.

In fact, not only did one station dig deep into its archives to pull out a Sex Pistols version of Jingle Bells the other day which I had no idea existed but tempered it with a more traditional rendition from the master crooner himself Bing Crosby.

From dust covered classics by the Beatles through to the Beach Boys, through to Jose Feliciano, Madonna, Wham and Dido - do you have either a pop or traditional favourite?

What? No comments on this? Let's see, there are the old faithfuls of Oh Holy Night and Silent Night (in various versions, such as Jon Anderson's Oh Holy Night and John Wetton's Silent Night) or better yet, Greg Lake's I Believe in Father Christmas

I can't stand Mariah Carey's All I want for Christmas is You. Ick.
