Yeah, ok, so I didn't quite manage to write this post for Sunday or Monday as promised, but such is my flakyness. Regardless, it's here now, with your requests as well as my own favourites.
May @Problem Uterus suggested Bruce Springsteen's "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" and Barenaked Ladies' "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen":
I don't care what anyone says, Christmas isn't Christmas without a little Bing.
Little Drummer Boy (with David Bowie)
White Christmas
My new sister in Mid-Atlantic statedom, Cali, wanted Happy Christmas (War Is Over) by John Lennon (I'm assuming, rather than the Celine version) and "Christmas Time is Here" from A Charlie Brown Christmas:
Since we don't get that 1964 jem "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" in the UK, I must rely on YouTube for my annual fix. Hurray for "Holly Jolly Christmas" and "Silver and Gold":
Eliza's Mom, always the musical brainiac has suggested The Killers' "Don't Shoot Me Santa", and yes, EM, they are wearing some pretty vile/fabulous Christmas sweaters! Her other recommendation, because she pretty much rocks, is Porn Orchard's "Christmas Sucks":

catching up...LOVE these songs.
HOW many versions of Fairytale???
If I wanted to drive Mr Spouse out of the house this would be how! But I love them.
I have no idea why this didn't come up on my Bloglines until today, but thanks! I hadn't seen that version of Bruce singing Santa Claus is Coming to Town. Stevie's earmuffs nearly killed me!
