Between these two? Last Christmas. It's not even close either.


The best Christmas song ever is Hey Santa Claus, by Kevin Bloody Wilson. If you've never heard it, check it out. You won't regret it.

100% Mariah. Never a fan of the Wham song even when I was a kid. Its even more annoying now.

Wham came out first, So I'll pick it. Mariah is over played. Both are good though.

George passed on Christmas day.

"...then U died on the 25th of December, ohh, baby..."

I read it was supposed to be "Last Easter"?

The George Michael Estate released him singing "Last Christmas" from the last full on tour he did in 2006.


Just love it. He wins forever because of this video.

Great performance. He never lost that amazing voice. I saw a video of him a few years ago performing with Queen at what I think was the Freddie Mercury tribute concert and he fucking blew me away.

WHAM!

It's warmly heartfelt, and there is so much Xmas spirit in it.

Basically, anyone can sing along with the lyrics all over the orld, that's how much it's embraced as a true Xmas song.

-

Mariah Carey's song has little to no Xmas spririt, not musically, and not much in her lyrics.

She wants 'him' as a present. That's it.

It's an egocentric rockabilly girly pop lighthearted cold tune, miles away from WHAM!'s warm classic.

-

Actually comparing these songs is stupid, and you have made me guilty of it. wink
