Still hard to beat David Bowie and Bing Crosby

Gotta look on the other side of the picture too, what do you consider the WORST Christmas song ever written? Sadly, I have to go with Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmas Time". I find it so cringeworthy every time I hear it. It's still hard to wrap my head around the fact that the man who wrote "Maybe I'm Amazed", which in my opinion is the best love song ever written, is also responsible for this atrocity......

Great song from a
great Christmas movie.

The Odds have a few good ones too - I like to include "We Three Kings" on any Christmas playlist.

Just listened to the Blue Rodeo Christmas album, and was very pleasantly surprised at their cover of Paul Simon's Getting Ready For Christmas Day (not sure if it beats the original though...).
