Look I like Setzer but his Christmas stuff is pretty boring but if people enjoy it more than I do great! I find his Big Band stuff commendable and enjoyable enough... it’s just missing any creativity.. it was done decades ago.. by better singers, with better musicians, better arrangers etc

Hopefully some people that like it will explore the real shit but not banking on it

Two more additions

Kacey Musgraves - A Very Kacey Christmas

lots of the redone classics, but a couple of originals including "A Willie Nice Christmas"

Emmy The Great + Tim Wheeler -  This is Christmas

few more originals on this ones including the classic Zombie Christmas and Christmas Day (I wish I was surfing)  and strangely only the singles from this are on the streaming services and not the whole album.
T.Rex

I like this version of 'Fairytale'

Chris Thile even looks a little bit like John Stirratt.

So this song (which I've credited to Wings in the past) is 100% paul
is really a crime against humanity....but what makes it worse is
it was estimated  that McCartney makes $500,000 a year from this song, which puts its cumulative earnings at over $20 million


He should really have all royalties go to charity...

I'm assuming from the context clues that godawful Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time song.

This thread makes me miss Mankie....here are some my faves.


Gaz Coombes & Adam Buxton - I believe in Father Christmas

Slade - Merry Xmas Everybody

Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday

Elton John - Step Into Xmas

Jona Lewie - Stop the Cavalry

The Vandals - Oi to the World

Chris Rea - Driving Home for Christmas

Cliff Richard - Mistletoe and Wine

Robbie Williams - Bad Sharon ft. Tyson Fury  (Snowflakes is also brilliant)

I concur with Kosmo, and would add anything off of Bad Religions Xmas album, She and Him's album and if you want to some compilations The OC Christmukkah album, The Edge of Christmas, Holidays Rule, etc....

Fairytale of New York is by far the best.
 
 The Vandals "Oi to the World" is #2.
 
 Travis - River has grown on me this year.
 
 Raveonettes - Christmas Song is my favorite new Xmas song.
 
 David Bowie and Bing Crosby - Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy
 
 Ramones - Merry Xmas (I don't want to fight tonight
 
 Dave Matthews - Christmas Song
 
 Badly Drawn Boy - Donna and Blitzen
 
 John Lennon - Happy Xmas
 
 Run DMC - Xmas in Hollis
 
 And U2 - Christmas - Baby Please come home
