What's your favorite holiday song(s)?

This is one of the more remarkable Christmas songs because: a) it's sung by Celine Dion; and b) it was written by Dee Snider. Who would've put those two together?
Come on. He won't let her leave and then slips something into her drink. For years I've called it the date rape song.
Sure he will let her leave. That is why they are having an open and honest conversation about her staying. I get it's repetitive but this is a song with a catchy chorus. She is saying, "what's in my drink", as in she is questioning herself if it is the alcohol that is making her consider staying over vs all the negative perceptions she may receive for spending the night. This song is not about Cosby lmao. After the song ends she says, I will stay for another drink and decides to stay and the hell what everyone else may perceive. All natural and all good with a little help from booze. It's how many of us were conceived.

It's the cuffs thing.....
I really can't stay (but baby, it's cold outside)
I've got to go away (but baby, it's cold outside)
This evening has been (been hoping that you'd drop in)
So very nice (i'll hold your hands, they're just like ice)
My mother will start to worry (beautiful what's your hurry?)
My father will be pacing the floor (listen to the fireplace roar)
So really I'd better scurry (beautiful please don't hurry)
But maybe just a half a drink more (put some records on while I pour)
The neighbors might think (baby, it's bad out there)
Say what's in this drink? (put these cuffs on dear)
I wish I knew how (your eyes are like starlight now)
To break this spell (I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell)
I ought to say, no, no, no sir (mind if I move in closer?)
At least…

Put on cuffs as in Bartender's cuffs (sleeve garter). He is telling her to make herself a drink and stay not put on handcuffs.
@SoddyNole why bother? They hear what they want to hear and it's not just Christmas music.
My list:
1. Anything by Bing Crosby, especially White Christmas
2. Nat King Cole - The Christmas Song
3. Dominic the Donkey - Lou Monte
4. Christmas Eve/Sarajevo - Trans Siberian Orchestra

Other than the donkey, everyone of those would be on my list as well.
