BTW, this list is in no particular order:
The Pogues with Kristy McColl--Fairytale of New York
While the vulgarity of the song is blatant and subtle, it does have a very charming melodic tune.
Wizzard- I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday
I picked up this gem while I was stationed in England. Definitely the best of the Glam Rock Christmas Era.
Wham!--Last Christmas

Say what you will, but every year people break up around Christmas. This song gives the perfect blend of heartache and Christmas cheer.
The Darkness--Christmas Time
This is what it would be like if Def Leppard made a Christmas Album.
Dr. Elmo--Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer
As a child you loved and laughed at it. Now as an adult you laugh at the blatant massacre of a family member and how your kids are laughing at it.
Dr. Seuss/Thurl Ravenscroft--You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch
Now, who did not enjoy this song?
Tom Jones & Cerys Matthews--Baby It's Cold Outside
Ah, nothing like pleading with a woman on a winter's night to stay at your home. In hopes you could get her drunk enough to have sex with you.
Josh Groban-- O Holy Night
I know the list has been pretty secular to this point, but I can not help but thoroughly enjoy this song.
Garth Brooks--Belleau Wood
This song touches on the Christmas Truce of 1914. Though, the song is a little inaccurate, it still gives me goosebumps. PS, I will write a blog about this in the near future.
Nat King Cole--The Christmas Song
I know it has Natalie Cole in it, but I could not find a video of just Nat's voice. And to me that is the only version I really want to listen to.

Well, I hope you enjoyed the list. Feel free to add some of your own. Please check back this month as I plan on showing you some more of my holiday cheer. Oh, and for anyone who is Jewish, I did not forget you. So here you go:
