The Christmas Song (Chestnuts) -- Nat King Cole
And just about any version of Silent Night.

This

 

[lawcalcock]

“Do You Hear What I Hear”- Johnny Mathis
“Santa Claus is Coming to Town”- Jackson Five
“Somewhere in My Memory”- John Williams (Home Alone soundtrack)
“Señor Santa Claus”- Jim Reeves

Whitney Houston rendition of Do You Hear What I Hear is insanely good!

Nah I beat you to it... But I did spell her first name wrong. No doubt a special performance!

O Holy Night. By Celine Dion. Listen to it, and you’ll agree its the best recording of that song,
ever!!

I’m sitting here watching 92 year old Tony Bennett right now singing Christmas songs. Very impressive to be able to carry on for so many decades.

For some reason many of my favorites are from movies and the versions from the movies.

- Spirit of Christmas (Ray Charles) from Christmas Vacation

- Christmas Vacation (Title Song) ... wish I could find the actual version on iTunes or something

- Mele Kalikimaka (Bing Crosby) ... Christmas Vacation again

- Christmas in Dixie (Alabama)


My favorite Christ-centered Christmas songs are:

- O Come, O Come Emmanuel (Jeremy Camp)

- What Child is This? (Chris Tomlin ft. All Sons & Daughters)

- Oh Holy Night (Vienna Boys Choir) from Home Alone


What are your favorites?

I'd have to think about the old traditional ones. Their are so many to choose from. But as far as the newer generation songs, and it's not that new. I've got to go with Christmas in Hollis by Run-D.M.C.
