dmccombe7 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) I love all the Xmas hits we've had over the years and wondered what everyone's favourite song was for Xmas. I'll start with mine. Just makes me feel good every time i hear it. Edited December 18, 2019 by dmccombe7 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 There’s not really any reggae Christmas songs I like, so my favourite would probably be this 🙂 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambient Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) This. I like the concept of anti-commercialism, and love the Prokofiev excerpt. Edited December 17, 2019 by ambient 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) Someone sent me this Xmas song. Not sure if will be allowed. Lyrics are a bit crude. Moderators discretion.

grandad Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) In the bleak mid-winter Frosty wind made moan Earth stood hard as iron Water like a stone Snow had fallen snow Snow snow on snow In the bleak mid-winter Long long ago etc. There, that's cheered everyone up!

KingPrawn Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Ignore the video. It’s not official. I do love the song though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Dare Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) dmmcombe. Spot on. The only Christmas song worth listening to. Good to hear from another KBW fan. Happy effing Christmas 😎.

Maude Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Another vote for Jona Lewie here. My daughter says she only has to hear the opening synth stabs of Wonderful Christmas Time and it instantly feels like Christmas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also anything off the Phil Spector Christmas album, and of course Bruce’s version of ‘Santa Claus is coming to town’ always makes me smile.

lowdown Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 (edited) There are a few of the classics I like but, the Nat King Cole, 1961 version of 'The Christmas Song', is top of my list. Although arranged and conducted by the great Ralph Carmichael, it is pretty much the (terrific) Nelson Riddle arrangement from the early 50's... As for Nat and his voice...Well, not much to say really... 🎅 Edited December 18, 2019 by lowdown 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never paid it much attention until the wife was watching Home Alone 2 a few years ago. I wasn’t really paying attention until I suddenly looked up and said “That’s Clarence playing sax!” I had no idea it was the E Street Band until then. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally like Phil Wickham’s stuff (but his up tempo stuff, TBF). That was all a bit too John Lewis Christmas ad for my liking. Some good songs suggested. Here are a few more of mine... Got this Scottish singer’s album to review and really enjoyed it... <iframe style="border: 0; width: 350px; height: 470px;" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3764515671/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/track=1179383947/transparent=true/" seamless><a href="http://yvonnelyon.bandcamp.com/album/i-believe-in-christmas">I Believe In Christmas by Yvonne Lyon</a></iframe> http://yvonnelyon.bandcamp.com/album/i-believe-in-christmas 50% Lizzy, 50% Pistols = 100% Merry What Crimble’s really like for many people...
