I love most every Christmas carol and song. Even Mariah Carey's 'All I Want for Christmas is You' gets play over the festive season.

For mine it's Bing Crosby's 'The Christmas Song'. It's kind of obscure, but kicks off with the lines:

'Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your toes...'

Beautiful song.

Haha, I've got a video tape of my Year 2 class and I doing a dance to that back when I lived out in Tibooburra.

Run DMC - Christmas In Hollis. The illest Christmas song ever. Check these lyrics.

It was December 24th on Hollis Ave in the dark
When I see a man chilling with his dog in the park
I approached very slowly with my heart full of fear
Looked at his dog oh my God an ill reindeer
But then I was illin because the man had a beard
And a bag full of goodies 12 o'clock had neared
So I turned my head a second and the man had gone
But he left his driver's wallet smack dead on the lawn
I picket the wallet up then I took a pause
Took out the license and it cold said "Santa Claus"
A million dollars in it, cold hundreds of G's
Enough to buy a boat and matching car with ease
But I'd never steal from Santa, cause that ain't right
So I'm going home to mail it back to him that night
But when I got home I bugged, cause under the tree
Was a letter from Santa and all the dough was for me

Fairytale of New York by the Pogues (later covered by No Use For A Name)...not a carol but has X-mas connotations so that counts IMO!

I'll pay that, great song. "How to Make Gravy" by Paul Kelly comes close though.

Shit, I've been looking for 'How to Make Gravy' for years now. I remember it got heaps of play on JJJ in the leadup to Christmas in 1997, but I've never been able to find it anywhere.

It's on the 'Songs From The South' best-of album. You can usually find it for about $15.

Give my love to Angus......
