Over the years, I've enjoyed listening to holiday music from both contemporary artists (i.e. Mariah Carey, Kelly Clarkson, and Michael Buble) and classic artists (i.e. Dean Martin, Jackson 5, and Brenda Lee). Now that I'm getting into the holiday spirit, I just thought it would be fun to create (and share with you all) My Top 5 Favorite Holiday Songs of the Season.
Speaking of Brenda Lee, she starts off the countdown at #5 with a classic that will always get me into the holiday spirit: Rocking Around the Christmas Tree.
#4 is another song to sing and dance to at your next holiday party: Jingle Bell Rock by Bobby Helms
At #3 is one of my favorite holiday songs of the 80's-Last Christmas by Wham!
At #2 comes from the Glee cast covering Band Aid's Do They Know it's Christmas? from my favorite season (Season 3) and one of my favorite scenes in this episode entitled "Extraordinary Merry Christmas."
Finally the #1 song that will really make you want to sing in the car is no other than Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas is You:
Now these are just a few of my favorite songs of the holidays so now I want to know what your favorite holiday songs are so please comment below and I look forward to reading your comments.
Solid list! I slightly disagree with your number one (Sleigh Ride or Carol of the Bells needs to be in there somewhere), but this is great! Thanks for including the videos!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I forgot how much I miss Glee! Thanks for that reminder!
For a person that cannot handle much Christmas music until the week of Christmas, I give you props. I could never listen to Christmas music for that long of a time period. The list is a pretty good one in my opinion. The videos were a nice add.
ReplyDeleteInteresting choice of songs! I like most of these too. My favorite of all is the Mariah Carey song, All I want for Christmas. It is pretty much everyone's favorite, but oh well. I am in the holiday spirit. I can't wait to be done with this semester and for Christmas day!
