    None of them. Christmas songs suck.

    I do not enjoy Christmas music in general.
    I like ‘Adeste Fidelis.’
    I like ‘God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen’ and ‘We Three Kings’ because they e got a strange, modal thing going on.

    The rest is pap

    Mine is the one after "Wonderful Christmas Time."

    Also like "Last Christmas"

    Seconded.

    Place would go to "Go Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" by Barenaked Ladies

    Show to "2000 Miles" by the Pretenders, although that might fall in the Is DieHard a Christmas movie category.

    Most obscure favorite is probably "Frosty the Snowman" by Siouxsie and the Banshees

    Die Hard IS a Christmas movie!

    Song-wise, Springsteen w/Merry Christmas Baby and Santa Claus is coming to town

    And...the Bing Crosby/David Bowie Little Drummer Boy....you couldn't redo that moment.....or could you?

    Another vote for Chrissie Hynde.

    In the traditional category, "We Three Kings" and "I Saw Three Ships."

    I'll nominate "Christmas Song" by Jethro Tull and "Mary Did You Know" by Pentatonix in the modern category.

    With you, except I prefer the Johnny Mathis version. But for this topic, outside religious songs, I'm going with Nat King Cole's Christmas Song.
