So, which one of these seemingly evergreen Christmas classics would you prefer to see higher in the charts this year?

I love both and they're both deserving of classic status.

But I'm definitely Team The Pogues biggrin.gif wub.gif wub.gif

Fairytale of New York [ 6 ] ** [85.71%]
All I Want For Christmas Is You [ 1 ] ** [14.29%]

Says it all ~ Joseph alone.

(In all seriousness OBVIOUSLY The Pogues as one of my favourite songs of all time let alone Christmas songs. Mariah's song isn't as bad as my bantering makes it out to be, I can sort of enjoy it close to Christmas when festivities are high but it is one of my least favourite Xmas songs ~)

Both are great and classic worthy, but Mariah's is the one that never fails to put me in the festive mood. wub.gif

The Pogues' is one that's great to sing along to with a group of people though.

I feel streaming is going to benefit Mariah Carey hugely, so reckon it'll be her time to be the highest peaking in 2014 - which I'm fully supporting. Will be interesting to see what happens over the next few years though.

Realistically it's very unlikely The Pogues will ever beat Mariah again, sadly they just don't have the same streaming appeal (they still do WELL on streaming, #6 in last year's Christmas streaming chart, but they can't compete with Mariah). We can only hope they'll continue to be close / ahead on sales occasionally.
