It's almost here ! What is your favourite carol or song which epitomised Christmas for you as a child. The joyful, merry, decorative, family, traditional and dare I say it holy spirit of Christmas.
Here's mine......

For me the only Christmas song with any meaning is "Christmas Time in Washington" by Steve Earle, but I am a grizzled old heathen.

Interestingly the 1987 'Fairytale of New York' by the Pogues is at number 15 in the current music chart. That screaming load of nonsense (personal taste) 'All I want for Christmas' by Mariah Carey is at number 12. My ol' favourite was 'So here it is Merry Christmas' by Slade.

"Adeste Fideles" ( Come all ye faithful).
And then watch Bing Crosby in 'The Bells of St. Mary's" !!!
