I've actually gotten to the point where I feel like people are trying to make me have some pavlovian reaction to Christmas; that it's always too early anymore.  
 
I guess I would pick more traditional stuff, like Silent Night, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, Carol of the Bells, Good King Wenceslaus, O Christmas Tree (reminds me of a Charlie Brown Christmas), classical stuff too, anything by Vince Guaraldi (Charlie Brown again), Feliz Navidad (one of the few pop Christmas songs that doesn't make me cringe.  Muchas gracias,  José Feliciano), I'll Be Home for Christmas, those older traditional songs we don't usually hear...
 
Can't stand Little Drummer Boy, though.  Don't know why.  I guess I like things a bit more abstract, usually.

None, not a single christmas song is worth listening too anymore. 
I normally like listening to the radio but when all radio stations plays the saaame 3 fucking christmas songs over and over again, they get annoying and I wish they would burn all copies of the songs 
But that's just me, everything else about Christmas is nice though =D

The Pogues featuring Kirsty Macoll - Fairytale of New York. This wins because it is the least Christmassy song about Christmas ever, which is why I never tire of hearing it.

@durog: Good call on the Wham! Whatever happened to Andrew Ridgeley anyway?

The Pogues as a song I'd love to listen to. 
 
But as a pure Christmas song I gotta go with Slade.

Other than classic Christmas songs, Wizards in Winter is pretty fun to listen to.

Mine would have to be "Satan Claus is Coming to Town." What, you've never heard it? I'll post the lyrics for you:
 
You better watch out
You'll probably die
Better not shout
I'm telling you why
Satan Claus is coming to town
He's making a list
And checking it twice;
Doesn't care who's naughty or nice
Satan Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He's gonna send you straight to Hell
So shut up for goodness sake!
O! You better watch out!
You'll probably die
Better not shout
I'm telling you why
Satan Claus is coming to town
Satan Claus is coming to town

I'm impartial to "The Christmas Song" by The Raveonettes, because it's the only song that's indie enough to be considered "cool" by a hipster like me.
 
Oh, and this gem:

I'd bang them all.
 
 
 It's a good song too. Maybe not this version though...

Andy Williams's "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" is the best Christmas song of all time ever.

Pretty much any of the old stuff: Nat King Cole, Perry Como, Burl Ives, Frank Sinatra, etc. Also some of the more upbeat old ones like Jingle Bell Rock and Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree.
 
Honestly can't stand pretty much all of the new stuff.

Ding ding ding, winner!
 
Though if I'm in a particularly cheesy mood, I enjoy "Last Christmas" by George Michael.

Ohh I hadn't heard this version before. Very nice!
 
(I can't stand Carol of the Bells when it's sung, but when it's instrumental it's amazing)
