Adeste Fideles and then probably Jingle Bell Rock... and then Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas... and then White Christmas... and then probably Silent Night...
I love all christmas songs.. fave is possibly last christmas as they always used to play it in the canteen at school when we had xmas lunch!
Santa baby
i love HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS, and ITS BEGINING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS and this one is a little cheesy, but the song that Mariah Carey sings - ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU!
marys boy child
santa baby
Believe
Jingle Bell rock
O holy night
Frosty the snowman
Oh I love them all
Little Drummer Boy and Silent Night both always bring a lump to my throat...
I also love any carols sung by Bing Crosby or Dean Martin - their Velvet tones make any carol beautiful....
Great picks there, I also love Walking in a winter wonderland by Annie Lennox, even though we dont have snow on the central coast, lol..
Anybody like the chipmunks christmas songs?
Oh oh! How could I forget Trans Cyberian Orchestra.... Check them out on you tube :) They are awesome!
I also love The Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy :)
O Holy night.
Oooohhhh i love them all! But my favourite would have to be (i think it's called) It's Christmas(Baby please come home). Cant think of its name but i know that part in brackets is right. Does anyone know the name of it?
i love all christmas songs but im getting over jingle bells it has been Mr M's bed time song since last yr
I love them all too but my favourite is "A Spaceman Came Travelling" by Chris DeBurgh.
"Little Drummer Boy" - Michael Jacksons version
"White Christmas" - I don't think anyone can hear that without feeling happy!
"I wish it could be Christmas everyday" - Great song! "It's Chriiiiiiistmaaaaaas"
"Merry Christmas Everybody" - Slade, it's a classic!
"Fairytale of New York" by the Pogues really makes me laugh!
I just bought this really great, 3 disk CD called NOWXMAS and I reccomend it for all Xmas song lovers!!!
Oooh....I love them all!!
Away in a Manger
Silent Night
O Holy Night
I can never go past any version of O Holy night - it's so beautiful!
My fave from when I was little is Frosty the Snowman.
I love all Christmas songs. My current fave one is White Christmas
'O Holy Night' is my favourite, closely followed by 'The Little Drummer Boy'
Oh i cant wait for Carols by Candlelight on Christmas Eve!!!!
I love "Do they know it's Christmas" by Band Aid - the 1984 version (half of you young folk wouldn't have been born then, or only babies LOL!), but the one they did a few years back is pretty good too. And John Lennon's I love too. I must download them LOL. As for the Traditionals I love The Little Drummer Boy too.
I was just going to say "Do they know it's Christmas". LOVE that song (although very emotional). And I love John Lennon, and I love Rudolf, Little Drummer boy and Santa Claus is coming to town (particularly by Springstein)!! xo
I love O Holy Night as well, but I can't stand hearing Mariah Carey sing it. I much prefer it sung in a choral arrangement or as a duet.
I also love O Little Town of Bethlehem. My sister and I used to sing it as a duet every christmas when we were both living at home.
And there's a version of Away in a Manger that we used to sing in 4 parts a capella - really haunting and beautiful melody. Gives me shivers.
O Holy Night would have to be another favourite too....
I like Slient night
Little Drummer Boy
Frosty the Snowman
Santa Claus is coming to town
Jingle bells (DS is learning it & Santa Claus at preschool I think.. he keeps coming home singing them and getting them mixed up. "Jingle bells in the snow.. and Santa Claus is coming to tooowwnn!" So cute)
Um, for my silly Christmas songs, I like any Christmas song that is the Chipmunks' version.. And "The night Santa went crazy" by Weird Al :P (But I only listen to that when DS isn't around hehe)
:bump:
AUssie version of Jingle BElls....my DD#2 brought the words home from kindy last week - they are unreal....very aussie !!!!
MBear, you should look for the Bucko & Champs CDs, they are all Aussie Christmas Carols. My favourite is only about 15 seconds long but cracks me up....
:
We three kings of Bankstown Square,
Selling Grandpa's underwear,
So fantastic,
No elastic,
Twenty Cents a pair!
Its Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas - from Home Alone 2
All I Want FOr Christmas Is You - Mariah Carey
White Christmas - Bing Crosby
Silent Night / Stille Nacht
I love 1940s/50's Christmas songs:
Christmas Ain't Christmas (Without The One You Love)
I'll Be Home For Christmas
White Christmas - I love this version by the Drifters: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddVZOK_9UUI
The Christmas Song
Also, How to make gravy, Paul Kelly
One for the kids: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EMsTZKpEn0. Made me tear up. I am such a Christmas sook :)
I like how to make gravy by Paul kelly too and the aussie version of the twelve days of christmas. My favourite of all though is still Happy Xmas, war is over by John Lennon..
:bump:
My sister popped one of my christmas cd's into the car cd player yesterday... a bit early than I usually start listening to carols but fun none the less.
I don't really have a favourite... but there are a few songs I hold very dear to my heart
Happy Xmas (War is Over) always makes me cry, I love it!
My favourite "real" Xmas carol is Silent Night. It's just a lovely melody, nice to sing... Makes me shiver :)
Oh I love Christmas songs! Have already started listening to my xmas CD! My absolute fav is All I Want For Christmas.
I have to update mine to include Carols of the Bells. Love it.
:bump:
Compiling some tunes for Saturday......
All I want for Christmas is you ...... Any version :)
O Holy Night and Please Come Home For Christmas (Jon Bon Jovi version)
This is too much like "pick a favourite baby" for me. I love them all!
But will confess to my favourite carol being "God rest ye merry gentlemen".
Ohh I agree.:
I love 'Have yourself a merry little christmas' and yes 'Happy christmas war is over' is a favorite too.
Like most of you I think all Christmas songs are wonderful.
Fav carols are "What Child is This" and O Little Town of Bethlehem
I LOVE the Boyz II Men version of Silent Night
