13 songs to love/hate this Christmas

U2, The Killers and Twisted Sister get festive

Lita Ford - not the real Santa

12. The Hives and Cyndi Lauper
A Christmas Duel

Shades of The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl's Fairytale Of New York plus more Phil Spector production in this foolishly festive punch-up. A good 'un.
MusicRadar verdict: Play loud on Boxing Day.

13. The Feeling
Feels Like Christmas
The UK pop robots have been "saving" this one for a couple of years, says frontman Dan Gillespie Sells. "Is it Christmas or am I going insane?" he asks. Erm, can we get back to you on that one?
MusicRadar verdict: We're not 'feeling' this one at all.

And this list doesn't even include the potential horrors of releases by politics broadcaster/dance show contestant John Sergeant, or comedian Peter Kay collaborating with Take That's Gary Barlow.

If Christmas is a season of goodwill, it's not exactly kind on people's ears is it?
