With the Christmas season coming in full effect this week and me being bored as fuck at school, What are your favorite Christmas songs?

Mine would have to be:

Dominick the Donkey by Lou Monte

and Oh Come, Oh Ye Faithful...

John MickClane Hall Of Famer

Back when I was in HS, I was in chorus, and we would auditition for Epcot Center's "Disney Candlelight", which would be a big show with the Voices of Liberty, an orchestra, and a celebrity guest narrator (eg Gary Sinse, Levar Burton, Uncle Freddie from 'Fresh Prince', James Earl Jones, The Black Guy from Miami Vice....)

And we would have a set, which was the following:

Shout for Joy

Oh Come, All Ye Faithful

Il Les Nest

Angels From The Realms of Glory

Oh Holy Night

Rejoiced with Exceeding Great Joy

What Child Is This?

Do you Hear what I hear?

Joy To The World

Hallelujah

Let There Be Peace On Earth*

Was added to the set in 2001 because of 9/11

But still, those songs bring back a lot of feelings about the holidays. I'd say that the bolded ones were favorites long before I was in HS, though.

Also, "Let It Snow" and "It's Begining To Look a Lot Like Christmas" are favorites. Because I'm a bass, I go around doing my best Sinatra impression at times....

Ah, memories....

Can't really say ALL of my favorites, as I love Christmas music, period. But I heard NAt King Cole on the radio the other day singing "O Holy Night" and it sent chills down my spine.

Of course, it WAS Nat King Cole, so that reaction shouldn't be TOO surprising.

Correct, the only christmas song that isn't a big ball of shite.

I'll third that as a great song, and i'm always partial to the "Fall on your knees......" part of O'Holy Night. I pretty much like them all though.

The Christmas song from Love Actually was stuck in my head for six months for some reason. I still have it on my computer somewhere. Other than that I'll go with Fairytale of New York.

Another vote on the Pogues. I'm also partial to the one with Cavalry in the title with the 'dubadubadumdum dubadubadum dubadumdumdadadumdadadadadum, i wish I was at home for Christmas' line. Thats ace.
