- Elvis Presley, ‘White Christmas’ (1957) Advertisement. Though Elvis is largely known for his hip-shakin’ rock’n’roll, his version of Irving Berlin’s ‘White Christmas’ is broadly faithful to the cockle-warming original – along with the rest of the covers The King recorded for his 1957 Christmas album.
- Jimmy Boyd, ‘I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus’ (1950) First performed by a 13-year-old Jimmy Boyd, this festive number unfurls like an chesnut-warming Disney classic – but don’t be fooled by its candy cane-sweet exterior.
- Perry Como and The Fontane Sisters, ‘It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas’ (1951) Advertisement. A bona-fide Christmas banger, ‘It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas’ has every single ingredient for success – from the old-timey jazz hands vocals to the raucous bursts of ”hahahah!”
- The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl, ‘Fairytale of New York’ (1988) An Irish folk ballad with a leg-kicking céilidh dance-off in the middle, ‘Fairytale of New York’ begins with a night in a jail cell, and rapidly sweeps from the sentimental (“We kissed on a corner, then danced through the night”) to the downright dark (“Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed”) – with a lot of insult-slinging along the way.

- Something Magical by Daði Freyr. This electro-pop offering from the Icelandic artist that should have won 2020’s cancelled Eurovision pretty much sounds like viral hit Think About Things but with festive lyrics, which is precisely why we love it.
- Unwrap Me by Pia Mia. Remember Pia Mia? Well, this year she’s taken a page out of Ariana Grande’s horny Christmas & Chill book with Unwrap Me, a song about getting down and dirty on Christmas Eve.
- I Dream of Christmas by Norah Jones. No stranger to a cosy jazz ballad, Norah Jones is back on the scene with this wistful ode to Christmas. Lyrically, it’s pretty simple, mainly consisting of “I dream of Christmas” and “fa la la las”.
