It can't really be Christmas without the Kinks, can it? "Father Christmas" is one of the most poignant, subversive holiday songs ever written, and puts to shame all those self-important, ham-fisted trainwrecks such as "Christmas Shoes" to shame. Almost brings a tear to my eye.
"Have yourself a very merry Christmas, have yourself a good time, But remember the kids who got nothing, as you're drinking down your wine."
