My favourite has to be O Holy Night,I first heard it about 20 years ago and have it on a couple of cd's.Last year I got the Aled Jones cd with it on,the best one I've heard yet. We start playing our Christmas music at the beginning of November to get us in the mood.I also like the Osmond's Christmas Album,has a lot of catchy tunes on. Wendy

I love the Kirsty McColl/Shane "pogue" fairytale of new york too - also love Step into Christmas by Elton John although I've never listened to any of his other stuff really. When I was little my favourite song at Christmas was We will rock you and Let all mortal flesh which is an old French carol. I love to hear my five year old singing any Christmas songs. L x

I believe in Father Christmas by Greg Lake is my fave to turn up loud in the car. Most moving is Feed the World - still gives me a shiver. Hubby loves Jingle Bell Rock and Driving Home for Christmas. I LOVE playing the Xmas tape/CD in the car at full blast with the kids clapping and singing in the back !! Maz. XX Still too early to think about it yet though!
