I think mine is We Three Kings, but O Holy Night comes in a close second.

The Sound of Silence.

God rest ye merry gentlemen

Sleigh ride

All Christmas music is overplayed to the point of annoyance. Therefore, my favorite goes like this:



(That last part's really good. )

Mary Did You Know?

Here's a good acapella rendition of it:

My 19 month old's favorite is Chuck Berry's Run Rudolph Run, we play it about 20 times at lunch alone!!

Hard Candy Christmas - Dolly Parton.

Or Christmas Wrappings - The Waitresses.

Does the Hershey's kiss commercial count!
The promo has aired every holiday season for 28 years.

And that reminds me. I haven't seen the Norelco christmas commercial in a long time, do they still run any?

I'm a Christian so I like REAL Christmas music, not just winter weather music. Holy Night is mine.

This isn't here nor there, but I like Little Drummer Boy even though it isn't an historical account of the Christmas story. Even so, I just LOVE the idea of the baby Jesus being happily entertained by a poor child's gift of his drumming by smiling at the child performing for him.

I know the majority don't see Christmas as a celebration that the Lord Jesus has come into the world, but I do. I'm wasn't above perpetuating the myth of Santa to the little ones and singing all of the winter weather songs in my earlier life, but I try to move away from all of that as I mature as a Christian.

I can hardly tolerate most "Christmas music" but this one strikes me as pretty bueno:

O Come O Come Emmanuel. I love the ancient melody.

It is technically an Advent hymn, but I won't split hairs.

I also like "I Saw Three Ships." And "Silent Night," but in German.

Dominick, the donkey

I definitely prefer religious-themed Christmas music, though I do like many of the standards.

My favorite Carol... I think Silent Night is pretty perfect, lyrically, but I love the melodies of O Come, O Come Emmanuel and What Child is This.

The best to belt out when caroling would be Good King Wenceslas and I Saw Three Ships

In church, Hark! the Herald Angels Sing and Stille Nacht, of which the latter I can still here my long dead grandparents singing.

One of my favorites too. I especially enjoy the Jars of Clay rendition.

My top three also.

The version of Silent Night sung by Michelle Moyer. Very moving.
