The Christmas track is not available for download... It was created specifically for the 2007 Target Holiday campaign... From Advertising Age: http://adage.com/songsforsoap/article?article_id=121779&search_phrase=target+christmas "Here in New York, it's 50 degrees, sopping wet and half the leaves are still clinging to their branches. So you know what that means ... it's Christmas jingle time! And Target is here to sate the desire for cheer none of us knew we had with a holiday spot featuring the English lo-fi pop musician Jim Noir.
In perhaps an unwitting nod to "Christmas Is All Around" from "Love Actually," Noir has taken his quirky, almost-antagonistic single "My Patch" and sprinkled it with plenty of holly and snow. What was once "If you ever step on my patch / I'll bring you down / I'll bring you down" is now hilariously "Holidays are times of magic / We're counting down / We're counting down."
And Noir gets away with it too, because his blend of Brian Wilson bedroom-pop is so infectious and unpredictably arranged that one can't help but think that it would make for a killer Christmas album. The plunking strings and (now added) bells feel right at home, and Noir's raspy voice sounds just as sincere on his album as it does in service to rather early holiday shopping. "

Mrs Claus ain't got nothin' on me by Little Jackie. You might be happy to know that you can download it for free along with 13 other Christmas songs on the Target website!
Although both holidays have become very commercialized, I believe Christmas is more commercial. Mostly because retailers begin advertising Christmas earlier every year and target gift giving.
The song is Tiny Tree Christmas by Guster.

Yes, Target recognizes Christmas as a holiday.
Target.com is the holiday drop shop. When I feel the need to get my white supremacy on I go to target to find these Christmas decorations. I never go anywhere else.
Can't say for sure, but it sounds like Guster Actually, one of the songs is Guster, Tiny Tree Christmas!
For general information on Christmas decorations, see the Wikipedia article on the topic. For listings of such items, see websites of companies that offer them, like Target and Walmart.

I wish I had an answer to your question regarding Aretha's Christmas Commercial. It was called "Target is Bringin' Christmas Home." I wrote the music for it, and actually got to produce the track in San Diego, where I'm from. Then, the ad agency flew me into Detroit to work produce her. She was, and remains, the consumate pro in the studio. It was a career highlight for me, and a huge beginning of "star-power" ads for Target. I cannot even remember the ad agency. Not much help, but a bit of trivia. Anybody out there got a copy?
If you're talking about the Santa Target commercial, I thought it might be the Westminster, but I'm not sure. I'd like to have a definitive answer, too!Carol of the Bells [MP3 Download]From the album A Festival Of CarolsBy: Robert Shaw ChoraleSold By: SONY Music Entertainment Downloads LLC.
