Mary Did You Know? because it's really pretty, and hey, that's how Christmas started. :mrgreen:

Then I like Last Christmas by Wham!, because I am really weird and I just love Wham! :D

Grown Up Christmas List is good, too. Well, really, there are just too many. :lol:

i've always been partial to "O Holy Night". It just reminds me of Christmas when I was a kid. Coming home from school and the night sky getting darker. The house would be warm and inviting after walking in the cold. Mom would be making supper and have Christmas music on.

Another favorite that I like to hear is the Charlie Brown Christmas theme. I watch that and the Christmas story every year.

Contemporary: "All I Want for Christmas is You" by Mariah Carey, "Do They Know it's Christmas?" by Band-Aid, "Last Christmas" by George Michael and/or Wham, and finally "So this is Christmas?" by John Lennon
Movie Score:"Kidnap the Sandy Claws" and "What is this?" by Danny Elfman (TNBC)

For the contempary: Mary Did You Know (I like the Kenny Rogers/Winonna Judd version and the Michael English version but my fav is by the Gaither Vocal Band an original member wrote it) also New Shoes is very good.

Traditional: I love Silent Night and Oh Come All Ye Faithful

-I love Christmas music in general.

I adore Christmas carols...my favourite are the following:

Traditional: The twelve days of Christmas, because it's sweet to know it was written to teach Catholic children the meaning of Christmas when their religion was forbidden.

Modern: Winter Wonderland because I just love the tune and keep singing it throughout the year!!!

Contemporary: All I want for Christmas is you, because it's such a pleasure to sing it out loud while dancing through the house on Christmas morning!!! :mrgreen:

I love Jingle Bells, because I can play it on the clarinet and the piano (gee what an achievement)

I can't choose out of the few hundred (not kidding) modern christmas songs my mum plays on iTunes in december.
