    Let Me Sleep
    I could’ve easily gone with “Drifting” or “Strangest Tribe” but had to go with the original that I’ve literally listened to every year at Christmas time since its release.

    Someday at Christmas (Stevie Wonder cover)
    Someday at Christmas is their best straight ahead Christmas song. But Strangest Tribe will always remind me of the best Christmas/holiday break.

    :lol: In all seriousness though, I think it's a quite unique and festive rendition:

    Someday at Christmas (Stevie Wonder cover)
    Let Me Sleep is too bleak for me at Christmas. Someday at Christmas takes on serious issues but it is more hopeful, and although it’s a cover, it feels like a song PJ could have written.

    Pearl Jam's 1999 holiday single, "Strangest Tribe", is named for the biblical Three Wise Men, who are described in the song as the "strangest tribe" following the star to Bethlehem. Written by Stone Gossard, the song incorporates lyrical references to the nativity story, such as "Follow the angled light" (the star) and the "angels try". The single also includes the song "Drifting" and was released during the World Trade Organisations protests in Seattle. That version of Drifting finishes with Eddie wishing "Merry Christmas". Also the poll question is about the ultimate PJ Christmas song.
