    Not a Christmas song as such but a fave of mine is The Power of Love by Frankie Goes To Hollywood.

    One of my all time favourites. The recent version (on the advert) is pretty good too.

    Is it really, I don't follow the charts at all so didn't know that. I just think it is a beautiful tune, the instrumental background on this new version is lovely. What's not to like? Each to their own I suppose. DO you like the original?

    Hi Any song which incorporates the phase Bell's End (The Darkness) and not banned by the BBC gets my vote. However, I should say Happy Xmas War Is Over (John Lennon: I know time passes quickly but is it really 32 years ago since his murder).

    Call me sad, but I just love christmas songs in general:

    Fairytales of new york, the Pogues
    Christmas time, the Darkness
    Stop the Cavalry, Jonah Lewie
    Let it snow, any version really
    I believe in father christmas, Greg Lake

    are my personal favourites
