ok, so my mates and I are having a x-mas houseparty tomorrow and I've been put in charge of music. Anyone have any recommendations for songs. :cool:
 
A few obvious songs for Christmas:
Slade - Merry Xmas Everybody
The Pogues And Kirsty McColl - Fairytale of New York
Wham - Last Christmas
Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday

There are more but I don't think you can have Christmas without all of those. :)

Start the evening off loud with

Rinocerose - Cubicle
Scissor Sisters - I Don't Feel Like Dancing
Snow Patrol - Headlights on Dark Roads

Slow it right down during the buffet, let the gateaux settle.

Stone Sour - Through Glass
Depeche Mode - Waiting For The Night
Donavon Frankenreiter - Lovely Day
Nick Drake - Things Behind The Sun

Then speed it up again to get people on their feet:

Coheed and Cambria - Favour House Atlantic
Junior Senior - Move Your Feet

The booze starts to take effect so you can get away with some less popular songs

Girls Aloud - Something Kinda Ooh
Orson - No Tomorrow
Stereogram - Walkie Talkie Man
Dashboard Confessional - Vindicated

Then as the ****ed up dancers embrace, break out the anthems to seal the night

DJ Sammy - Heaven
Europe - Final Countdown
Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars
Robbie Williams - Angels
Linkin Park - In The End
 
Has anyone mentioned

Phil Spector - A Christmas Gift fot you?

Common wisdom amongst most music people is that it is the best Christmas album ever made.



Or there is Reggae Christmas album - with track like - On the 12th day of Christmas Jah Jah gave to................

I'm being serious this actually exists

Add "Santa Claus Is Back In Town" by Elvis, and you're list will be complete.

It's a really blues-y number.
