A few other seasonal favorites that I always spin this time of the year:
Winter Symphony - Beach Boys
The Winter Song - Angel
Ring Out Solstice Bells - Jethro Tull
River - Joni Mitchell
Just saw this thread. I'll play along (late I know). I'll ignore the classics and go with modern music. (Burl Ives' "Holly Jolly Christmas" is my all time favorite Christmas song).
In alphabetical order:
1) Cheap Trick - "Merry Christmas Darlings"
2) Halford - "I Don't Care"
3) Heart - "Here Is Christmas"
4) Gary Hoey - "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch"
5) The Kinks - "Father Christmas"
6) The Kings of Christmas - "Christmas Passed"
7) Run - DMC - "Christmas in Hollis"
8) Twisted Sister - "Heavy Metal Christmas"
9) The Waitresses - "Christmas Wrapping"
10) The Wizards of Winter - "The Four Kings"
I was going to put "Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24)" by Savatage since TSO didn't record it, but I refrained.
