You've already said it yourselves.
It's NOT A CHRISTMAS SONG!
So why put it in a Christmas song list!!!???

Oh Jesus! I'm wondering what drugs these people were using when they chose these songs!

Hey, Spinner staff.......when you make your list of "Spinner's Worst Lists", this list should top it! You're breadth of musical knowledge is as great as this list. Any guy on the street could do better.

maybe instead of putting a non-Christmas song, you could have popped in the Pogues' Fairytale of New York, which would be #1 on my list.

Robert Downey, Jr. sings an awesome version of this song. Yes, you read correctly. Robert Downey, Jr.

As much as I love this song, it does not belong on this list, whether or not it's a Christmas song.

I really, really love this song...but it does NOT get even me in the Christmas spirit! Okay, they should have renamed this list "Best Christmas Songs in POP Music," because we all have noted that NONE of these are traditional Christmas carols. And I agree, "White Christmas," which can be considered a pop Christmas tune, MUST be on this list (tell me it is coming up???) There IS some good secular Christmas music and these are not some of them. I still go for the songs about Jesus as my favorites though.
