Top Five Christmas Songs
In no particular order
The Christmas Song
O Holy Night
Silent Night
Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)
White Christmas
O Holy Night- Perry Como is the sentimental favorite. The Carpenters have an excellent version sans lyrics.
Silent Night- Much to my shock, Jewel does a great rendition
What Child Is This- Equally surprising, Carrie Underwood's version is probably my favorite
Carol of the Bells- Not a lot of good takes out there with the lyrics. Give it to Andy Williams for vocals, George Winston for instrumental.
The Christmas Song- Nat King Cole, obviously.
O Little Town of Bethlehem- Again has to be Nat, although Jewel's is also great
O Come All Ye Faithful- Celine Dion takes it
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas- Perry Como again
No Place Like Home for the Holidays- Have to go with the Carpenters since I'm already so heavy on Perry Como
The First Noel- Bing Crosby by a mile
It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year- Andy Williams owns it
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing- John Davidson by far
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen- Bing again
Do You Hear What I Hear- Mr. Como, why don't you make yourself comfortable?
A Holly Jolly Christmas- Burl Ives, there can be no other
The Chipmunk Song- Alvin and the Chipmunks (and Dave)
The Holly and the Ivy- George Winston on piano
It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas- Bing
White Christmas- Bing owns it, but the Drifters are also fantastic
Happy Xmas- John
Wonderful Christmastime- Paul
It Came Upon a Midnight Clear- Frank Sinatra
Old Toy Trains- Glenn Campbell
Silver Bells- Johnny Mathis
The Little Drummer Boy- Johnny Cash
