Default Good Christmas/Holiday Songs?

Know of any? I'm trying to think of mainstream-type music that has a Holiday theme. An example would be Yule Shoot Your Eye Out by Fall Out Boy. Mr. Garrison's Merry [censored] Christmas song is also a quality tune. Know of any more?

So I take it the David Bowie/Bing Crosby remake of the Little Drummer Boy is not what you are looking for?

My friends and I found a cassette single on the street during high school Spring Break. It was by an artist called The Boogerman. On side A was a song titled "The Boogerman." Side B featured the classic "Merry Christmas from The Boogerman." Just an ingenious track, but the tape was misplaced by someone soon thereafter. I've been searching for 12 years to no avail.

that version of Little Drummer Boy is great.

any of the TransSiberian Orchestra's Christmas stuff is really good - they have electric guitars, if that helps sway you!

Merry Christmas from the Family--Robert Earl Keen

Mom got drunk and Dad got drunk
At our Christmas party
We were drinkin' champagne punch
And homemade eggnog
Little sister brought her new boyfriend
He was a Mexican
We didn't know what to think of him
Til he sang Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad

Brother Ken brought his kids with him
The three from his first wife Lynn
And the two identical twins
From his second wife Mary Nell
Of course he brought his new wife Kaye
Who talks all about AA
Chain smokin' while the stereo plays
Noel, Noel, The first Noel

Carve the turkey turn the ball game on
Mix Margaritas when the eggnog's gone
Send somebody to the Quik-Pak store
We need some ice and an extension cord
A can of bean dip and some Diet Rite
A box of tampons, some Marlboro Lights
Hallelujah everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family

Fran and Rita drove from Harlingen
I can't remember how I'm kin to them
But when they tried to plug their motor home in
They blew our christmas lights
Cousin David knew just what went wrong
So we all waited on our front lawn
He threw the breaker and the lights came on
And we sang Silent Night
Oh Silent Night o' holy night

Carve the turkey turn the ballgame on
Mix Bloody Marys cause we all want one
Send somebody to the Stop 'n Go
We need some celery and a can of fake snow
A bag of lemons and some Diet Sprite
A box of tampons, some Salem Lights
Hallelujah everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family
