Well,for starters,because since leaving the Beatles McCartney's been nothing but a schlock artist.

I love that one. It's happy and cheerful and gives an image of being with family and friends. Happy Christmas, War Is Over is so sad and preachy. Even though it's a better song, it misses the mark when it comes to expressing the joy of Christmas. Give me Wonderful Christmas Time any day.

My favorite version of Oh Holy Night is done by Earl Wrightson and the Andre Kostelanetz Orchestra. It used to be my favorite Christmas song.

My favorite Christmas song is now He Shall Feed His Flock. Check out the Sir Thomas Beecham version. The Come Unto Him section at about 2:34 sounds as if it's being sung by an angel.
