Lighthouse Posted 11 December, 2014 Share Posted 11 December, 2014 I quite like The Darkness and Bo Selecta x-mas records but I find all of the Band Aid singles to be preachy bullsh*t. Maria Carey can p*ss off too. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cat Posted 11 December, 2014 Share Posted 11 December, 2014 Sufjan Stevens has done a ridiculous amount of Xmas songs. Here's one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat Posted 11 December, 2014 Share Posted 11 December, 2014 A classic, despite it's current use on a sodding Argos advert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifeintheslowlane Posted 11 December, 2014 Share Posted 11 December, 2014 Sufjan Stevens has done a ridiculous amount of Xmas songs. I have both boxed sets...it's all you need for the Alternative Christmas...wonderfully inventive original along with great interpretations of old traditionals...

Halo Stickman Posted 13 December, 2014 Share Posted 13 December, 2014 A group ahead of its time. These guys were making Christmas hits – not to mention, saving the planet – years before the likes of Geldof and Bono (although I do credit the latter with making the best-ever New Year’s Day record). https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=DzAL9ELsFRw.

Lighthouse Posted 13 December, 2014 Author Share Posted 13 December, 2014 Don't like the Wombles one. All they've done is stick the word 'wombling' into an otherwise dull X-mas waffle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
