Is the Fairytale of New York the BEST Xmas Song?

It's my favourite, closely followed by Happy Christmas, War is Over, by John Lennon, and I believe in Father Christmas, by Greg Lake

I personally like spaceman came travelling and winters tale but fairytale of new york seems to be the most popular

Its my favourite along with stop the cavalry. I also really enjoy driving home for Christmas. Tho rocking around the Christmas tree has good memories for me. It was my mams favourite & she always sang/danced to it.

Yes

I do like it but I don’t think it’s the best for me. I like others more.

Probably, I usually find Christmas tracks too schmaltzy or quirky, but I do like Fairytale of New York. Although, I dislike the censored version they usually play on the radio.

I find Christmas songs annoying same stuff every year, I actually thought Shane died a few years ago

Thanks for all your replies

Driving home for Christmas makes Xmas eve exciting and last Christmas is tops. Stop the Calvary also

It is the worst Christmas song in my opinion, can't stand it.

It’s my favourite also. So catchy, I listen to it when it’s not Christmas. I hope it’s number 1

Not too keen on the song to be honest at Christmas, I think of Christmas songs as child friendly and with warm sentiments. The sort of songs that put you in a Christmas mood. I quite like the song but not really at Christmas.
