I just wish I had better answers. I can't quite getcha a full-on alternative list (it's been a long but productive day, so I'm dragging), but Tori Amos' "Winter" at least evokes winter and childhood. As far as actual Christmas, though, I suppose one could raid the "Very Special Christmas" series and make a mixed tape (I miss those). I'd put these together: Gabriel's Message - Sting I Believe In You - Sinead O' Connor Oiche Chiun (Silent Night) - Enya Children Go Where I Send Thee - Natalie Merchant I Saw Three Ships - Sting The Christmas Song - Hootie & The Blowfish Christmas Song - Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus - John Cougar Mellencamp Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas -The Pretenders We Three Kings - Patti Smith Winter Wonderland - Eurythmics The Coventry Carol - Alison Moyet O Holy Night - Tracy Chapman Out of the above, I'm particularly fond of Enya's Gaelic "Silent Night," Sting's "Gabriel's Message," and Tracy Chapman's "O Holy Night." smiles I love this question!

As far as actual Christmas, though, I suppose one could raid the “Very Special Christmas” series and make a mixed tape (I miss those). I’d put these together:

Gabriel’s Message - Sting
I Believe In You - Sinead O’ Connor
Oiche Chiun (Silent Night) - Enya
Children Go Where I Send Thee - Natalie Merchant
I Saw Three Ships - Sting
The Christmas Song - Hootie & The Blowfish
Christmas Song - Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds
I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus - John Cougar Mellencamp
Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas -The Pretenders
We Three Kings - Patti Smith
Winter Wonderland - Eurythmics
The Coventry Carol - Alison Moyet
O Holy Night - Tracy Chapman

Out of the above, I’m particularly fond of Enya’s Gaelic “Silent Night,” Sting’s “Gabriel’s Message,” and Tracy Chapman’s “O Holy Night.”
