ThaiPauly Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I would agree that 4 of your top 5 would be in mine. The one missing would be Chris Deburgh, replaced by Paul McCartney's "Simply Having a wonderful Christmas time" Slade would be number one, and Wizard would be number 6 Happy Christmas WOT no Cliff Richard classic "Mistletoe and Wine"????

Tywais Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 (edited) There's one song that keeps going through my mind each year but don't know who it is. "Oh, the weather outside is frightful" "and I just tore off a bitefull" "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow" Had my first Chang in a year, my coherency is lapsing.

The_Moog Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 At Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun There's a world outside your container And it's a world of dread and fear Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears And the Christmas bells that ring there Are the clanging chimes of doom Well tonight thank God it's Scamp instead of me And there won't be snow in Pattaya this Christmas time The greatest gift he'll get this year is life (Oooh) Where nothing ever grows No rain nor rivers flow Do they know it's Christmas time at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

on-on Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Robert Earl Keen's "Merry Christmas From the Family" which was sadly butchered by some pop country chick band. Still my favorite Christmas song ever. Lyrics here: Lyrics - Merry Christmas From the Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
