1-We Wish You a Metal Xmas and Headbanging New Year (Jeff Scott Soto / Bruce Kulick / Bob Kulick / Chris Wyse / Ray Luzier)
It’s like a familiar “We Wish You A Merry Christmas”, but a little different. Many metal and rock stars got together in 2008 and released a Metal Xmas album. “We Wish You a Metal Xmas and Headbanging New Year” became popular and loved as the Xmas song of the metal and rock music world.
“We Wish You a Metal Xmas and a Headbanging New Year!”

And above all the bustle you hear”
3-Mistress for Christmas (AC/DC)
Mistress for Christmas is a track from AC / DC’s “The Razor Edge” album. It is a very famous album. It is the only album that AC / DC has recorded with drummer Chris Slade. The songs ‘Thunderstruck’ and ‘Moneytalks’ from the album have become hits. It is metal Christmas music that is at least as popular as ‘We Wish You A Metal Xmas”.

Silent Night, Holy night “

When I remember my childhood days and all those Christmas eves ”
