Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I'm afraid I'm still a bit of a sucker for Slade and Wizard (showing my age ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I'm afraid I'm still a bit of a sucker for Slade and Wizard (showing my age ). I think mine has to be Slade too. It's just such a happy upbeat song Gets my toes tapping everytime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedusA Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 My faves are The Pogues' "Fairytale of New York" (special to OH and myself) and Greg Lake's "I believe in Father Christmas" because I love the crescendo of the last verse. That said I am a sucker for most Christmas songs and play them regularly throughout December. Own up. Who watched the TOTP2 Christmas special last night?

Snowy Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I think Greg Lake has to be my favourite - I love the line "with eyes full of tinsel and fire". Followed closely by "Fairy tale of New York". But I also love the whole of Phil Spectre's christmas album and would have that playing almost constantly over the next few days if I could get away with it!

Mrs Webmuppet Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 It has to be Gaudete by Steeleye Span or Soltice Bells by Jethro Tull (and I have both on CD in my car). And the Darkness Christmas video always makes me smile.............it's just soooo silly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 We always listen to Gaudete, Fairytale of New York, Ring Solstice Bells, I believe in Father Christmas, A Spaceman Came Travelling and Walking in The Air. So a few favourites! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I like the ones with the Phil Spector touch, but also another sucker for Slade and Wizard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazygal Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I like John and Yoko's "Happy Xmas) War is over, and also "a Fairytale of New York"- who doesn't?! I also like the oldies like WHite Christmas- Bing Crosby. I also love The Twelve Days of Christmas by the Spinners!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Now I'm not keen on anything by John Lennon (except Beatles stuff). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Mele Kalikimaka http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zM5iiuQOMyg That's the Bill Crosby and the Andrew Sisters version but I prefer the KT Tunstall. My favourite song, it's the Hawaiian one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Fairytale of New York is the ultimate. I also love Proper Crimbo, Mary's Boy Child by Boney M and Stop the Cavalry. The TOTP2 special last night was fab. I'll be watching TOTP tomorrow as well. Ooooh and The Power of Love by Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

ruth1 Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I like the Oldies Let it snow,let it snow, let it snow by Dean Martin in particular Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Let it Snow is OH's favourite. I like the Sleighbell Ride oldie song and for modern Shakin' Stevens. Can't bear to listen to the Gary Glitter song anymore - makes me shudder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
