Good Christmas Songs? Rock Versions, Alternatives, etc.

[SheSaidSheSaid]

I tell you a Christmas song I got a kick out of, because I heard it at work:

Simple Plan - Christmas List

Am I giving Simple Plan too much credit, or is that a pretty scathing critique of the consumerist nature of Christmas? (making it a funny song to play in a department store)

[jibjqrkl]

Accept - Winter Dreams although not technically about christmas but just winter in general, it still sounds a bit christmassy

[dragoninforcer]

I heard this was a good Christmas song.

[MagicMurderBag7]

I heard this was a good Christmas song.

You heard wrong!





It's a great Christmas song!

Yea it seems hard to find Christmas remixed stuff. Only ones I mainly know of are from Theocracy and August Burns Red. And the August Burns Red stuff doesn't have vocals, but the instrumentals are pretty dope.

Some don't show up in the related, so I'll just link em up, just in case.

From Theocracy

I heard this one on the radio today and I really liked it

Dropkick Murphys - The Season's Upon Us

[SirDavidTLynch]

The Chipmunk song at its proper speed.

[darkwinterbeast8]

Accept - Winter Dreams although not technically about christmas but just winter in general, it still sounds a bit christmassy

Wait, wintery songs that have nothing to do with Christmas count? In that case, then every song that Immortal has made ever counts. Like this one for example.

The Chipmunk song at its proper speed.

That reminds me, here's Tegan and Sara singing The Chipmunk Song.
