Second best Christmas song?

It's that time of the year when the air is filled with the sounds of the festive classics. So my question to my fellow gaffers is as the title suggests:
What christmas song comes in second behind this Masterpiece.


I really like that song, but certainly not one I can listen to on repeat leading up to the day. It's just too depressing for me, fantastic song though.

I think my favourite has always got to be Frank Sinatra. It's not Christmas for me unless I listen to Sinatra, something about the smoothness of his voice just really gets me in the spirit.

I think you accidentally posted the wrong link, this is clearly the best Christmas song. For second best you could just hit yourself in the head and listen to it again while suffering from a concussion.

It's things like this that make me wonder if covid was sent by god to wipe us out...

lol

More info than you're looking for but...

It's actually a song with an empathetic message about socioeconomic diversion come Christmas time. They're calling Santa a "fat bitch" because he doesn't deliver toys to poor kids in the ghetto. It's a metaphor.

Most people aren't aware, but Insane Clown Posse are very charity-driven. They regularly do charity shows locally here in Michigan, and hold canned food and toy drives around the holidays.

They've been doing it since the 90s (timestamped below)



Even on Covid this year they donated plenty of material to create masks locally for those in need:

I stick up for ICP. They're good people.

Jimmy Savile was also known for his charity work.

Edit: in not lumping icp in with Savile, was more of a charity doesn't forgive the sins committed against ear drums.

I wanted to make a thread about lesser known XMas songs, or songs that represented the holidays.

I have a couple that aren’t traditional but we play every year.

So second is


I think Black Mirror ruined this song for me. There is a Christmas episode with Jon Hamm where the main character is stuck in repeat with this song just playing over and over again, and whilst I love the song I realised how that would drive me insane.
