My Favourite track though is Aretha Franklin singing 'Sleigh Ride'

Fairytale of New York

I Believe in Father Christmas

Driving Home for Christmas

A Spaceman Came Travelling

...and not ashamed to admit it... Johnny Mathis' When A Child Is Born.

I love any of the Christmas songs by the Ronettes, from Sleigh Ride to Frosty The Snowman, but especially I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus.

Also loving the micky take ones by Bob Rivers, called Walking Round in Womens Underwear or White Trash Christmas!

And finally In The bleak Midwinter, more a hymn really, and still like East Seventeens Stay Another Day, pure cheese!

Go for it View - Elvis is the boy I'll tell ya

Fave Xmas song ... gawd what a question .. Chris de Burgh - A Spaceman Came Travelling .. the idea behind the song is great, and maybe closer to the truth than anyone realises.

Apart from that, all the 70's stuff Slade, Wizzard, you know the stuff I'm talking about lol then we have Bing Crosby and all the songs of that era and the Phil Spector stuff and the Motown Christmas offerings - brilliant

Oh and Laurel and Hardy movies on the tv - I know it isn't exactly music, but nevertheless funny and part of Xmas

Ohhh don't forget Clive Dunn 'Grandad' that was a Christmassy kind of song, but not St Winifreds School Choir singing 'Grandma your lovely' Bleugggggh

The Mail on Sunday are giving away Elvis singing all Christmas songs..

I am tempted to buy it..

then again, may google and see if I can buy the album for 10 times the price.

Standards must never slip
