There's quite a bunch of movies and songs for me, I just can't think of all of them right now :biggrin2:

 

As for a movie: definitely 'Love Actually' in first place. And 'Nightmare before Christmas'

 

songs, there are waaay too many, but I love Allison Crowe's and Sarah McLachlan's interpretations.

 

Last Christmas by Wham, a must. :biggrin2:

I don't think I've seen many Christmas movies, but my joint favourite Christmas movies are...

 

 

 

... Die Hard and Love Actually.

No, seriously! :roftl:

(Well, Die Hard isn't really a Christmas movie as such, buuuuut...)

 

 

And various favourite Christmas songs of mine, in no particular order:

 

Wham! - Last Christmas (hell, that song is the fricken' definition of Christmas, hahahaha...)

Mike Oldfield - In Dulci Jubilo

Tomizawa Michie - Zutto Anata to Merry Christmas

Jona Lewie - Stop the Cavalry

Roy Orbison - Pretty Paper
