Happy Xmas War is Over
Any John Lennon song sounds great when covered
and Jimmy did a great job with this one
Let's all sing it this year!

A Sailor's Christmas.
Because for several years AS A SAILOR, I didn't have a Christmas.

Merry Christmas Alabama - I just feel like there's a lot of meaning behind this song for Jimmy.

I've always loved Happy XMas..... John Lennon/Yoko Ono version started the love of that song.

"Christmas Island!" My mom and I used to sing this song together when I was little, and I knew every word! I was so surprised and happy when I heard Buffett sing it the first time...brought back many nice memories of Christmas while I was growing up. Getting nostalgic now...

Christmas Island. Tough choice over A Sailor's Christmas. I actually even love his take on Jingle Bells. The jerked chicken reference Buffettises the song well.
