God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen is my fav for reasons i've never been sure, other than the Victoriana of it. My fav Christmas-themed album is Jethro Tull's Christmas Album where the current lineup of the band (along with a few past members like Dave Pegg) rerecord the many Christmas-themed songs the band has done in the last (almost) 40 years.
My fav Christmas movie of all time is "An American Christmas Carol" where Henry Winkler as "Benedict Slade" relives the Christmas Carol evening of ghosts in depression-era Massachusetts.
but i can also never tire of 24 hours of Jean Shepard's Christmas Story on TNT. :)
i can say i normally hate most of the P.A. music in shopping malls, mostly because they play nothing else and the sacharin saturation of it makes me sick. i believe christmas should be part of our lives, not replace our normal lives (or music) for 4 weeks and then be forgotten.
