From Kanye West’s epic debut single Through The Wire
Unbreakable, what you thought, they'd call me Mr. Glass? Look back on my life like the Ghost of Christmas Past Toys "R" Us where I used to spend that Christmas cash

From the wonderful Jackie by either Scott Walker or Marc Almond, depending on your preference:
I’d have to get drunk every night And talk about virility With some old grandmother That might be decked out like a Christmas tree

^^ revives a topic just to duplicate an answer I gave 6 years ago.
Presumably vasta's post is "Rock N Roll Winter" by Wizzard.

In 1992 Cliff Richard had a top ten hit with I Still Believe In You which included the lyric, “And I believed in Superman In Santa Claus the world of Oz”.

I was listening to 'Wise men' by James Blunt the other day, and thinking it would be an interesting one to put on a Christmas playlist.

My 1992 playlist is in March (and what a great bunch of songs there are in there, albeit loads of terrible stuff too). In any case the Beautiful South: We Are Each Other has these lyrics at the start
There's no more little secrets we haven't yet disclosed We bore the living daylights of anyone too close And all our cards at Christmas are written to us both Count them up who's got the most?

Nobody yet mentioned it, surprisingly.
The Smiths - Frankly Mr Shankly (sometimes I feel more fulfilled making Christmas cards with the mentally ill)
