Rage against the Machine- Killing in the name of....

NO I was not one of the sheep that brought it just to beat XF because I didn't actually buy it. I am a rock music fan so was generally happy after 4 years of awful RNB,Pop and Dance music clogging the top 10 it was a generally happy moment for me to see them be Xmas Number 1.

Probably Mad World. I love this version of the song. Tears For Fears version, although I like some of their stuff, is not as good.

I do like Killing In The Name Of, but that's more about it being a song heavily played when I used to go to rock clubs.

Out of that lame list it would have to be Girls Aloud even though the song isn't xmassy in the slightest.

The 90s had much better xmas #1s that actually felt xmassy

Bob The Builder, Gary Jules and Rage are the only decent ones there.

The rest are pretty much plastic playthings.
