With the arrival of December, I've been listening to Classic FM non-stop; I've always enjoyed their Christmas coverage.

Personal favourites include: O Holy Night, Little Drummer Boy, Carol of the Bells, In the Bleak Midwinter, Coventry Carol.

But, there's dozens that I'm found of. What's yours?

O Come All Ye Faithful (1st)
In the Bleak Midwinter (2nd)

For some reason, I have a special hatred for modern carols, especially when they don't print the music and it's complete guesswork.

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, because Grouty likes it in that Porridge all-time-great Christmas Special. And I recall Winker Watson and the lads singing it as part of some crafty scheme in the Dandy back in the 1960s.

I Saw Three Ships is also good, because you can bash out an acceptable version with just three chords:

G         D          G       D
I saw three ships come sailing in,
   G                 D
on Christmas day, on Christmas day
  G         D          G       D
I saw three ships come sailing in,
   G         Em         D   G
on Christmas day in the morning.
