The New York Times had an editorial today that said that there are no Christmas songs for this generation (or any generation after the 1940's). Excuse me? There are so many that I love!! Here's a list of my favorite Christmas songs (post-Greatest Generation):
"Maybe this Christmas" by Ron Sexsmith
"Happy Christmas (War is Over)" by John Lennon and Yoko Ono
"Christmas Don't be Late" the Chipmunks
"Step into Christmas" by Elton John
"Do they know it's Christmastime?" by Band-aid
"Feliz Navidad" by Jose Feliciano
"Last Christmas" by Wham, rerecorded by Jimmy Eat World (which I like better)
"Donde esta Santa Claus" by Guster
"Just like Christmas" by Low
Add your favorite song to my list below, please, and I will recommend that you not receive coal (I have connections).
Now, my cousin Maria has something to add:

(Her message to you):
Dear friends,
I am Nicole's cousin. I am 5. My name is Maria. Merry Christmas!

I just thought of a few more:
"River" by Joni Mitchell
"Christmas is Going to the Dogs" by the Eels
"Tennessee Christmas" by Amy Grant
Two songs which will absolutely not be included in my list are...
"My wish" by Britney Spears
"All I want for Christmas is you" by Mariah Carey
Gag me with a candy cane.
I love "Do they know it's Christmas" by Band Aid ... but since that's already on your list, I'll have to go with a punk version of Little Drummer Boy I heard.
