My Favorite Christmas Songs

Actually, these are my top 10 Christmas songs.  If I were to actually list ALL of my favorites, you would be reading for days - LOL!

Now, some of these are traditional and some are not quite the traditional songs of Christmas.  However, these are the ones I look forward to hearing this time of year and make it seem like Christmas time. 

#1 - Little Drummer Boy - Bing Crosby and David Bowie

#2 - White Christmas - Bing Crosby

Yes, can you tell I love Bing?  His voice is just amazing!!

#3 - The Christmas Song - Nat King Cole

I love both versions of this song.  However, Nat King Cole beats out Mel Torme
just a little bit!

#4 - Wizards in Winter - TSO

I love everything from TSO!  I have seen them in concert several times
and they have never failed to impress!

#5 - The Twelve Pains of Christmas - Bob Rivers

Yes, not a "traditional" Christmas song.  But who can not relate to something in this song.
It makes me laugh!!

#6 - Merry Christmas from the Family - Robert Earl Keene

Again, not a traditional Christmas song.  However, every year JJ and I play this one
over and over again, singing at the top of our lungs.  Ah, family bonding moments!!
Side note - I like the Montgomery Gentry version also!

#7 - O Holy Night

O Holy Night is a song I learned early on in my youth.  I have even caught myself singing
this song in July.

#8 - The First Noel

Another one omy favorite "traditional" songs of the season.  I am also proud to say
I can play a little of this one on the piano.

#9 - The Christmas Music from "A Charlie Brown Christmas"

My favorite cartoon show of the season!  I love the meaning behind it and
I love the music from the show!

#10 - The Opening Song to National Lampoon's "Christmas Vacation"

I love this movie and I love the song at the opening.  Again, not a traditional song, but
still a very fun one!

So, there are my top 10 favorite Christmas songs.  Did one of your favorites make the list??

Okay, I have to add a bonus song!  I know people get annoyed with this song.  But it is
another that JJ and I like singing together! 

Love to you all!!
