Written By: whistledog on 12/14/05 at 9:17 pm

I didn't do this as a poll, for fear of leaving some good ones out.  What are your favouite Christmas songs of the 70's?

I like these ...

Wonderful Christmastime - Paul McCartney
I Believe in Father Christmas - Greg Lake
I Wish it Could Be Christmas Everyday - Wizzard
Merry Xmas Everybody - Slade
Christmas Rappin' - Kurtis Blow

The '70s was probably the last decade with any decent Christmas songs.

This is all I like and could think of for now

Merry Christmas, Darling -- The Carpenters
This Christmas -- Donny Hathaway (I think this one is really from 1968, but may have been first released in 1970)
A Wonderful Christmas Time -- Paul McCartney & Wings (Christmas, 1979)

:)

Being an ELP fan I have to say "I Believe In Father Christmas"
but I also am quite fond of "Father Christmas" by The Kinks

As a rule, I hate Christmas songs, but I'll make four exceptions: one from the 60s, two from the 70s, and one from the 80s.

60s: Beach Boys, Little Saint Nick

70s: Elton John, Step Into Christmas and Ho Ho Ho (Who'd be a turkey at Christmas)

80s: Band Aid, Do they know it's Christmas. The 2004 remake wasn't a patch on the original.
