Santa Claus is coming to Town
- the Springsteen version has, perhaps, the most Christmastide joy.

All Quiet on the Western Front
- this Elton John song (Bernie Taupin lyric) is truly remarkable, almost tear-jerking, if not quite full of ye olde xmas spirit. Worth four minutes of anybody’s life.

Kevin Wilson! That takes me back more than 30 years. One of my customers gave me a tape of his when I was a pub landlord. For obvious reasons I couldn't play it in the pub until shut-in time. Years later, when I went to Tasmania to work, the friends I met were amazed that a non-aussie knew all the words to his songs.
My favourites... Living Next Door To A*** and It Was Over.
He was sexist, racist. everything-ist and the BBC would have banned him, and probably did...although they employed a certain other Aussie for many years whose interests were less acceptable than just tying kangaroos down.
I have tried to post this a couple of times but my use of the usual aussie term for myself as a British person is apparently unacceptable on this site. The one that begins with P and ends in M or MIE and has an O in it.

Ole at the wheel! number 1 christmas song this year

As to the OP, my vote goes to The Pogues for the reality of the song and then Wizzard for the feel-good factor. They reflect both sides of Christmas depending on your situation at the time.

Driving Home For Christmas was a great song but I don't think anybody would remember it if it had been sung by Cliff Richard or Kylie Minogue. Definitely a case of right singer - right song.

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas, a song that truly defined society at the time 👍

It would all depend on what Kylie was wearing when she sang it tbh.

As for the OP, Mariah Carey's Christmas song is the best one.
