I think my favorite secular Christmas song is this one by Tom Leher:

Christmastime is here by golly

Disapproval would be folly

Deck the Halls with hunks of holly

Fill the cups and don't say "When."

Kill the turkeys, ducks and chickens

Mix the punch and drag out the Dickens

Even though the prospect sickens

Brother, here we go again.

On Christmas Day you can't get sore

Your fellow man you must adore

There's time to rob him all the more

The other three hundred sixty-four.

Relations bearing no expensil

Send some useless old utensil

Or a matching pen and pencil

"Just the thing I needed, how nice..."

It doesn't matter how sincere it is

Or how heart-felt the spirit

Sentiment will not endear it

What's important is...the price!

Hark the Herald Tribune sings

Advertising wondrous things!

God rest ye merry merchants

May ye make the Yuletide pay.

Angels we have heard on high

Tell us to go out and buy.

So when you hear those rackous sleigh bells jingle

Hail our dear old friend Kris Kringle

Driving his reindeer across the sky

DON'T STAND UNDERNEATH!

As they fly by.

Dunno the difference between "carol" and "song." I said "other" for both.

Carol of the Bells

Christmas at Ground Zero

I listen to these no matter what the season---neither me nor the bf do xmas.

While I like all of them (mostly) the 2 that always get my toes a' tapping are Sleigh Ride and What Christmas Means to Me ~ Stevie Wonder. One of my faves from childhood is Roger Millers Old Toy Trains.

I was going through my cds the other day and I found my Pretenders Greatest Hits -- this should be the VJ CHristmas song!

Hes gone 2000 miles

Its very far

The snow is falling down

Gets colder day by day

I miss you

The children will sing

Hell be back at christmastime

In these frozen and silent nights

Sometimes in a dream you appear

Outside under the purple sky

Diamonds in the snow sparkle

Our hearts were singing

It felt like christmastime

2000 miles

Is very far through the snow

Ill think of you

Wherever you go

Hes gone 2000 miles

Its very far

The snow is falling down

Gets colder day by day

I miss you

I can hear people singing

It must be christmastime

I hear people singing

It must be christmastime

I don't know the name of it... but it goes something like this (at least part of it):

"Fall on your knees,

Oh hear the angels voices,

Oh night divine...."

Anyone know the name?
