   I have my personal favourites that range from John Lennon and Yoko Ono's War Is Over If You Want It through to I Wish It Could Be Xmas Everyday by Roy Wood and Wizard, not forgetting Fairytale of New York by The Pogues and featuring Kirsty MacColl.
   
   OK, so what are your favourite Christmas songs?

   Definitely Fairytale of New York
   
   I also love I Believe in Father Christmas by Greg Lake

   I also really like classic carols such as O Holy Night and The carol of the Bells.

   Fairytale of New York is a fantastic christmas song for getting you into the spirit! I haven't felt 'christmasy' at all up till now but a combination of listening to that, doing some christmas hubs and a bit of snow has helped hugely!

    It's a very old traditional carol.  You might find someone singing it on youtube.

    Jesus, Light of the World by Third Day is probably my favorite.  Hard to choose only one.

       That's a good one for me too.
       
       I like Wynonna Judd's "Why Don't We Call Him Lord" about naming the Child, but canlt find it anywhere. Maybe wrong title.
