Advantages: A good mix of modern Xmas songs and cover versions
Disadvantages: None

...on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, yuletide carols being sung by a choir'. The song starts of quite slowly but the pace picks up towards the end. Xtina's Xmas - I have no idea what this is actually about, it's not a proper song - it's more of an interlude lasting only 1:30 minutes.

Advantages: Great lyrics | Very funny | Very original
Disadvantages: Some weak tracks | Will offend | Hard to find

Still keeping the same tune as O Holy Night it has the significant authentic Christmas feel to it, even if it isn’t innocent as it was. 4. Dead, Dead, Dead | Juan Schwartz & South Park Choir (2.13) ‘And so on Christmas morning let good tidings... Read review
