Sort of the song equivalent of "Is Diehard a Christmas movie?" - - is "Linus and Lucy" a Christmas song? It is on the A Charlie Brown Christmas album. I wouldn't play any of the other songs on the list from January 2nd to Thanksgiving - - but I'd play "Linus and Lucy" any time of the year. It doesn't feel particularly Christmas-y to me.

Catman agrees with Nalkarj's comments regarding "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." Most of the covers are terrible, but Bing Crosby's and Kelly Clarkson's rise to the top of the list of worst renditions.

It doesn't feel particularly Christmas-y to me. True, but those all have lyrics. Agree though. I never associated it with Christmas.

Greatest voice in the history of recorded sound? Probably.

So This is Christmas - John Lennon So cool that Lennon and McCartney each wrote a memorable Christmas song, and both seem to fit the personalities of the songwriter. John's is a slow-moving simple tune that is also a socially conscious plea for peace. Paul's is a bouncy sing-song fun kind of song which perfectly portrays the innocence of Christmas. Who's is better? Can't really say, but they both earned their place in the Christmas songbook.

Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas
(There's no place like) Home for the Holidays
I'll Be Home For Christmas
The entire Peanuts Christmas Album
Rockin Around The Christmas Tree
Jingle Bell Rock
White Christmas
Really, I dig most of the old stuff. Holiday Traditions on XM is easily the best Christmas channel. I'm not religious so I tend not to gravitate toward overly religious Christmas songs. The worst Christmas song is The Twelve Days of Christmas. It's just tedious. You may as well listen to someone sing 99 Bottles Of Beer On The Wall.
