There are so many Christmas songs I love and my favourite depends on the moment. It wouldn't be Christmas without Bing, Mariah and Michael Bublé.

That said, at the end of the late night carol concert we go to each year, the lights are turned out, individual candles are lit and everyone sings O Holy Night. I bawl every time!

All I want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey. They love to play this song in every store in New York City up until Christmas – however I'm not sick of it yet. Mariah has a voice of an angel!

Every year I say I go back to the same one by Mariah Carey (All I Want For Christmas Is You). I probably play it 500 times in December, I somehow don't get sick of it... but my husband definitely does.

Paul Kelly, How to Make Gravy. In fact, when Lizzy and I prepare Christmas lunch we play Paul Kelly's greatest hits from go to woe. It feels so Australian.

I was just discussing this with my daughter and have decided that my long running favourite Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano has been overtaken by Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas Is You. Oh, I'm also partial to I'm A Little Christmas Cracker by Diana Decker.

The Pogues' Fairytale of New York is right up there. But the best is Bruce Springsteen's version of Santa Claus is Coming to Town!

White Wine in the Sun by Tim Minchin. Very clever lyrics, which sum up the season for any Aussies who are not religious but still like Christmas! How to Make Gravy by Paul Kelly is a close second.
