Same! I think they're both adorable and very talented.

Hands Down for me, Jimmy Eat World "Last Christmas"
just love their cover for that song. a little more upbeat than the original, but Jim Adkin's voice works magic.

Does this count?

^ Not exactly "Christmas", but still the appropriate time of season.

They also have a full Christmas album floating around, though it's relatively hard to find these days.

Also, the Sufjan Stevens Christmas album is awesome.

Bought the single at his gig, it came wrapped in Christmas paper and he wrote everyone a little note and signed it.
