What Christmas songs should I get?

[Sivsyboi]

I'm planning on doing a quick sweep of Amazon and buying loads of Albums and singles. I was thinking about what Christmas songs specifically get. I've got all the classics but was looking for something more...rocky (Couldn't think of the word). What do you guys reccomend?

The three I've already got are:

Christmas time (Don't let the bells end) by the Darkness

A Fairytale of New York by No Use for a Name

Christmas in Hollywood by Hollywood Undead

Those are the sort of things I'm looking for. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
