    Default Good non-traditional Christmas song

    So, x-mas time is near, and I'm busy building up my holiday playlist. I was wondering if peoples knew of non-traditional x-mas songs worth mentioning? We can honestly only here Deck the Halls so many times before we go insane...honestly...

    I'll start things off with Fairytale of New York by The Pogues.

    John Lennon's War Is Over, So This is Xmas, or whatever it is called. It is good.

    People make fun of me all the time for this, but I really think "Last Christmas" by Wham! is my favorite.

    I personally prefer the Jim Eat World version of "Last Christmas" over the Wham! version. "River" is a kinda Christmas song, though it is a little sad (Three versions I could find: Sarah McLachlan, Sara Barellis (my favorite), and the original by Joni Mitchell).

    David Bowie and Bing Crosby's "Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth" is interesting, but I'm more partial to the stuff by Vince Guaraldi done for the Charlie Brown Christmas special. That stuff is awesome.

    Was also going to cover this song on guitar (took me like a day or two to figure out by ear), but my webcam's mic fritzed at the last minute :/

    Still, it's an awesome rendition of Carol of the Bells and maybe I'll get my cam working again >.>

    "Christmas Wrapping" by the Waitresses is a personal favorite.
