Lets have a tune for crimbo...and why not start with the best of them all....

It was christmas eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me
"Won't see another one"
And then he sang a song
The rare old mountain dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So happy christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

They've got cars big as bars
They've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It's no place for the old
When you first took my hand
On a cold christmas eve
You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome
You were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing Galway Bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day

You're a bum
You're a punk
You're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy christmas your arse
I pray god it's our last

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing Galway Bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day

I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing Galway Bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day

    ...a musical Interlude :D:D:D ...my alltime favourite Christmas song. Heavymental you have cheered me up...here's my offering, a little known one from Mr Dylan...

    Three Angels

    Three angels up above the street,
    Each one playing a horn,
    Dressed in green robes with wings that stick out,
    They've been there since Christmas morn.
    The wildest cat from Montana passes by in a flash,
    Then a lady in a bright orange dress,
    One U-Haul trailer, a truck with no wheels,
    The Tenth Avenue bus going west.
    The dogs and pigeons fly up and they flutter around,
    A man with a badge skips by,
    Three fellas crawlin' on their way back to work,
    Nobody stops to ask why.
    The bakery truck stops outside of that fence
    Where the angels stand high on their poles,
    The driver peeks out, trying to find one face
    In this concrete world full of souls.
    The angels play on their horns all day,
    The whole earth in progression seems to pass by.
    But does anyone hear the music they play,
    Does anyone even try?
    ...all the way...'til the wheels fall off and burn...

    Cheese fest alert.........cue the sleigh bells

    I don't want a lot for Christmas
    There's just one thing I need
    I don't care about the presents
    Underneath the Christmas tree
    I just want you for my own
    More than you could ever know
    Make my wish come true
    All I want for Christmas is...
    You

    I don't want a lot for Christmas
    There's just one thing I need
    I don't care about the presents
    Underneath the Christmas tree
    I don't need to hang my stocking
    There upon the fireplace
    Santa Claus won't make me happy
    With a toy on Christmas day
    I just want you for my own
    More than you could ever know
    Make my wish come true
    All I want for Christmas is you
    You baby

    I won't ask for much this Christmas
    I don't even wish for snow
    I'm just gonna keep on waiting
    Underneath the mistletoe
    I won't make a list and send it
    To the North Pole for Saint Nick
    I won't even stay awake to
    Hear those magic reindeers click
    'Cause I just want you here tonight
    Holding on to me so tight
    What more can I do
    Baby all I want for Christmas is you
    Ooh baby
    All the lights are shining
    So brightly everywhere
    And the sound of children's
    Laughter fills the air
    And everyone is singing
    I hear those sleigh bells ringing
    Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
    Won't you please bring my baby to me...

    Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
    This is all I'm asking for
    I just want to see my baby
    Standing right outside my door
    Oh I just want you for my own
    More than you could ever know
    Make my wish come true
    Baby all I want for Christmas is...
    You

    All I want for Christmas is you... baby

    This is one of my faves I think. Always gets me in the mood. I'll be driving back to my folks on Friday and praying this one comes on the radio! Cue Chris Rea and that jaunty tune! :D:D

    I'm driving home for Christmas
    I can't wait to see those faces
    I'm driving home for Christmas
    Yea I'm moving down that line
    And it's been so long
    But I will be there
    To sing this song
    To pass the time away
    Driving in my car
    Christmas
    Gonna take some time
    Top to toe in tailbacks
    Got red lights all around
    But soon there'll be a freeway
    My feet on holy ground
    So I sing for you
    Though you can't hear me
    When I get through
    And feel you near me
    Driving in my car
    Driving home for Christmas
    With a thousand memories
    I take look at the driver next to me
    He's just the same
    Just the same
    Top to toe in tailbacks
    Got red lights all around
    Driving home for Christmas, yea
    Get my feet on holy ground
    So I sing for you
    Though you can't hear me
    When I get through
    And feel you near me
    Driving in my car
    Christmas
    Driving in my car
    Driving home for Christmas
    Driving home for Christmas
    I'm driving home for Christmas
    Oh, I can't wait to see those faces
    I'm driving home for Christmas, yea
    Well I'm moving down that line
    And it's been so long
    But I will be there
    I sing this song
    To pass the time away
    Driving in my car
    Driving home for Christmas
    It's gonna take some time
    But I'll get there
    Top to toe in tailbacks
    Oh, I got red lights on the run
    But soon there'll be a freeway
    Get my feet on holy ground
    So I sing for you
    Though you can't hear me
    When I get through
    And feel you near me
    I am driving home for Christmas
    Driving home for Christmas
    With a thousand memories
    I take look at the driver next to me
    He's just the same
    Just the same
    Top to toe in tailbacks
    Oh, I got red lights on the run
    I'm driving home for Christmas, yea
    Get my feet on holy ground
    So I sing for you
    Though you can't hear me

    And feel you near me
    Driving in my car

    Driving home for Christmas
    With a thousand memories

    ...another old favourite...

    They said therell be snow at christmas
    They said therell be peace on earth
    But instead it just kept on raining
    A veil of tears for the virgins birth
    I remember one christmas morning
    A winters light and a distant choir
    And the peal of a bell and that christmas tree smell
    And their eyes full of tinsel and fire

    They sold me a dream of christmas
    They sold me a silent night
    And they told me a fairy story
    till I believed in the israelite
    And I believed in father christmas
    And I looked at the sky with excited eyes
    till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn
    And I saw him and through his disguise

    I wish you a hopeful christmas
    I wish you a brave new year
    All anguish pain and sadness
    Leave your heart and let your road be clear
    They said therell be snow at christmas
    They said therell be peace on earth
    Hallelujah noel be it heaven or hell
    The christmas you get you deserve
    ...all the way...'til the wheels fall off and burn...

    Hey! Chingedy ching,
    (hee-haw, hee-haw)
    It's Dominick the donkey.
    Chingedy ching,
    (hee-haw, hee-haw)
    The Italian Christmas donkey.
    (la la la-la la-la la la la la)
    (la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)

    Santa's got a little friend,
    His name is Dominick.
    The cutest little donkey,
    You never see him kick.
    When Santa visits his paisons,
    With Dominick he'll be.
    Because the reindeer cannot,
    Climb the hills of Italy.

    Hey! Chingedy ching,
    (hee-haw, hee-haw)
    It's Dominick the donkey.
    Chingedy ching,
    (hee-haw, hee-haw)
    The Italian Christmas donkey.
    (la la la-la la-la la la la la)
    (la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)

    Jingle bells around his feet,
    And presents on the sled.
    Hey! Look at the mayor's derby,
    On top of Dominick's head.
    A pair of shoes for Louie,
    And a dress for Josephine.
    The labels on the inside says,
    They're made in Brooklyn.

    Hey! Chingedy ching,
    (hee-haw, hee-haw)
    It's Dominick the donkey.
    Chingedy ching,
    (hee-haw, hee-haw)
    The Italian Christmas donkey.
    (la la la-la la-la la la la la)
    (la la la-la la-la la-ee-oh-da)

    Children sing, and clap their hands,
    And Dominick starts to dance.
    They talk Italian to him,
    And he even understands.

    Cumpare sing,
    Cumpare su,
    And dance 'sta tarantel.
    When jusamagora comes to town,
    And brings du ciuccianello.

    Hey! Chingedy ching,

    Tedious cut and paste. Why on earth would anyone scroll down and read this shite?

    Go and buy a CD player. Then you can actually listen to them.

    Or at least just be tedious to your family, if you still have one.

    Here you go - and it's one of my favourite Christmas tunes. Though I do also like the Bruce Springsteen version of 'Santa Claus is coming to Town'....

    "Jingle Bell Rock"

    Jingle bell, jingle bell
    Jingle bell rock
    Jingle bell swing
    And jingle bells ring
    Snowin' and blowin'
    Up bushels of fun
    Now the jingle hop has begun

    Jingle bell, jingle bell
    Jingle bell rock
    Jingle bells chime in
    Jingle bell time
    Dancin' and prancin'
    In jingle bell square
    In the frosty air

    What a bright time
    It's the right time
    To rock the night away
    Jingle bell, time
    Is a swell time
    To go glidin' in a
    one horse sleigh

    Giddy-up, jingle horse
    Pick up your feet
    Jingle around the clock
    Mix and mingle
    In a jinglin' beat
    That's the jingle bell rock

  • My turn. Bit of an alternative one and by no means my favourite but pogues and kevin bloody wilson had already been done. So I give to you Blink 182 - i won't be home for Christmas

    "I Won't Be Home For Christmas"

    (Deck the halls with boughs of holly fa la la la la la la la la)
    (Tis the season to be jolly fa la la la la la la la la)

    Outside the carolers start to sing
    I can't describe the joy they bring
    Cause joy is something they don't bring me

    My girlfriend is by my side
    From the roof are hanging sickles of ice
    Their whiny voices get irritating
    It's Christmas time again

    So I stand with a dead smile on my face
    Wondering how much of my time they'll waste
    Oh god I hate these Satan's helpers

    And then I guess I must've snaped
    Because I grabbed a baseball bat
    And made them all run for shelter

    It's Christmas time again
    It's time to be nice to the people you can't stand all year
    I'm growing tired of all this Christmas cheer
    You people scare me
    Please stay away from my home
    If you don't wanna get beat down
    Just leave the presents and then leave me alone.

    Well I guess it's not cool to freak on Christmas Eve
    Cause the cops came and arrested me
    They had an unfair advantage

    And even though the jail didn't have a tree
    Christmas came a night early
    Causes a guy named Bubba unwrapped my package (hot damn)

    It's Christmas time again
    It's time to be nice to the people you can't stand all year
    I'm growing tired of all this Christmas cheer
    You people scare me
    Please stay away from my home
    If you don't wanna get beat down
    Just leave the presents and then leave me alone.

    I won't be home
    I won't be home for Christmas
    I won't be home
    I won't be home for Christmas (please post my bail)
    I won't be home
    I won't be home for Christmas (please post my bail)
    I won't be home
    I won't be home for Christmas (please post my bail)
    I won't be home
    I won't be home for Christmas (please post my bail)
    I won't be home
    I won't be home for Christmas
