Last year I aired my grievances against the worst Christmas songs that have been churned out but this year it's time for some positivity (something I rarely say).
1. "Fairytale of New York"--The Pogues
Nothing says Christmas like ending up in a drunk tank and calling each other nasty names.
2. "Merry Christmas (I Don't Want to Fight)"--The Ramones
Because, let's face it, no one wants an argumentative Christmas but everyone wants to spend it with The Ramones.
3. The entire "Three Ships" album--Jon Anderson
Masterpiece from start to finish.
4. "Riu Chiu"--The Monkees
I don't understand the words but it's divine nonetheless.
5. "The Christmas Song"--Weezer
Are they on this list because they're my favorite band? Yes. Does this song also kick Christmas ass? Heck yes.
