This is one of the few contemporary Christmas classics that has what it takes to rank up there with "All I Want For Christmas Is You". It's not really festive by any means but it really sums it all up for anyone having a meloncholy Christmas season.

Another one that I was thinking of. Thanks for pointing this out.
OC, do you have either/both of the Now holiday albums? Those are the onluy ones of the Now series that I've invested in.

Great song, this one is. One of the best things about it is that, despite being Christmas-related, it doesn't sound awkward spinning it any time of year.

Neither the Glee Cast or Taylor Swift versions hold a candle to the original.

I love, love, love this song. I LOVE IT so much it's not even funny.
For years, I used to be "oh God...not this song again," due to it being so overplayed, but not anymore. Gorgeous melody and production. And I love that extra long version with the intro.

Regarding the overplay factor and being synonymous with Christmas season, this is the equivalent to "All I Want For Christmas Is You" where I live.

I actually really hate the song itself, but it is undeniably a classic and the original IS good, even if the song isn't my cup of tea.
