um, the only rendition worth listening to... bing crosby.

i'm partial to "but why's it so cold"... check it here: http://www.dicamillosisters.com/ or the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad5tHt1R9VA

also, these rock me as well:

hall & oates - jingle bell rock: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4l284gV6V4
crosby & bowie - little drummer boy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-OTQmVOqJU
lennon - so this is christmas: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dDWUVizCDk
elvis - santa claus is coming tonight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woPv6YuM0s0

that's "happy xmas ..."

but i'll be sure to check out the other ones. (i assume i'll recognize the bing crosby white christmas song when i hear it, but it's not coming to me right now..)

flaming lips - a change at christmas

i love that song.

Dead Christmas by Monster Magnet is pretty great.

but in general I hate Christmas music, save for Jingle Bell Rock.
