What is Derbyshire’s favourite Christmas song?

A survey by a UK discount brand has found that Santa Claus is Coming to Town by the Jackson 5 is the top choice for the East Midlands as a whole, but we wanted to know, what is Derbyshire’s favourite Christmas song?

So, what are your favourite (and maybe least favourite) songs to hear at this time of year? Do you prefer Chris Rea or Cliff Richard? Do you like to hear Band Aid or Boney M the best?

To give you some ideas, the survey results are below, broken down by region, although notable by its absence is my favourite, Fairytale of New York by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl.

Please, let us know what you think either below or on our Facebook page.
