  • Modern/Non-Traditional Christmas songs

What are some more modern/non-traditional Christmas songs? I am building a playlist of modern takes on Christmas songs (and keeping in my favorite classics as well), but finding decent new Christmas music has been a bit of a challenge. Here are a few I found that are along the lines of what I’m looking for (kinda broad in genre, but basically not the traditional ones). Can anyone help me out with some more to keep my spirits up while I celebrate Christmas on my own this year? 🙂

I don’t, Kels.

But would love to see the reaction if Ed posted this. It would be carnage.

Sasha’s xpander was a big fav at the proud boys Xmas do.

    Makes sense coming from you given Xpander is well known to be racist. You cop loving bootlicker.

      jonattonyeah

      Have you not watched zack’s Xmas do bants video from the top table at it last week? Looked sick!

        Former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke in Charlottesville, 2017. As if we needed more proof.

        Sorry Kels. This has already gone off the rails.

        EDIT: props to Si for getting Sasha sorted in just 3 posts. God, we’re losers.

          jonattonyeah Hahaha….you jerks….already? 😛

          It’s fine….I’ve been browsing Spotify and found a few more. Still interested if this gets back on topic though lol

          The Blossoms have released a new Christmas song Kel.

          Not sure if its any good though

          ^

          This was played on radio one this morning, my 9 year old is now an R1 fan so thats on the radio during the school run. It’s a new xmas song and isn’t the worst one i’ve heard, expecially considering my opinion that anything that isn’t on Now That’s What I Call Christmas is shite!

          XTC in disguise, classic

          Modern twist on a classic \m/
          Should be on all Christmas playlists imo 😉

            LOL @ Back Door Santa

            That’s what Millsy shouts when he’s forcefully lobbing one up a reluctant bird’s arse

            Dan always reminds me of that windowlicker outside the hospital waiting for news of the Royal baby. His version was better.

            …my favourite ‘modern’ Christmas song, really rate Tom Chaplin’s voice

            Sad lyrics, but turned into a modern day Christmas classic anyhow.

            Pretty certain the video inspired many on here’s fashion sense to boot!

              Didn’t say I liked it, but like most other crap Christmas songs, they get hammered this time of year and become classics.

              Plus, I thought you’d be digging the trabs…

                If you think I would like those trabs Scott, I really do despair

                ScottBailey Hahaha….maybe I would have liked this back in high school, during my goth phase, but at this point in my life, I just worry about this dude’s vocal chords lol

                I am not sure how Christmassy it is but it’s the double a side of Last Christmas. Everything she wants is brilliant

                These are great guys…thanks! 🙂

                Here are some others I found (in case anyone else is interested):

                honestly forgot about this one until it popped up yesterday:

                Has anyone ever thought Bono’s line in the Live Aid song - “Well tonight thank God its them, instead of yooouuuuuu” - was a veiled hint at the deep seated racism hidden in this song?

                  LT42 I honestly hadn’t thought that deeply about it, but it’s certainly plausible!

                  Another song conspiracy:

                  LT42 I have always seen it as a reflection of Geldof’s anger at the establishment turning a blind eye to famine. Given his continuing efforts re Africa and debt relief since, it would make sense
