I always have trouble with this question--I love so many Christmas songs. Today I'll go with Hark, the Herald Angel Sings. But it might be different tomorrow!

12 Days of Christmas is a real favourite, lots of great memories of singing all the verses! But I think my absolute favourite would have to be Fairytale of New York by the Pogues and Kirsy McColl, I heard it on the radio just this week and totally got a lump in my throat :)
