12 Best Christmas Songs: No 7

'Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)'
--U2 (1987)

It's been covered by Cher, Hanson, Death Cab and Jon Bon Jovi, all of which makes sense: the song manages to be sassy, juvenile, shut-in and Jerseyish at once. A standout by Darlene Love on 'A Christmas Gift for You, From Phil Spector,' U2's bighearted version trumps the original, not least because it features Love on backing vocals.

Charles Brown, Darlene Love & The Eagles are much better versions than U2.
