Cheers and happy holidays!
Well, not really about the holidays but it is a holiday every time I hear this:
Pearls Before Swine & Tom Rapp - The Wizard Of Is 2004 (Rarities and Demos)

Thea Gilmore -- Strange Communion
The best secular Holiday album for me...

I think the most appropriate song for Christmas 2020 (and one of my favourite Christmas songs anyway) is Mud's "Lonely This Christmas", the sentiments of which will apply to millions staying alone at home this year. The late Les Gray is not perhaps taking it as seriously as he might in this recording:

Or for a less commercial sound, but again apposite for our current situation, there's the sublime Emily Smith and "Find Hope" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSCEk9vdZzU
