Over at all things fadra, Fadra has a post that got me thinking about Christmas songs. Off the top of my head I could only think of two that were really favorites but while looking for those songs I found many more that I love!
Here are a few of my favorites (click the singers name to take you to a YouTube video of the song):
1. Do you hear what I hear - Bing, Johnny Mathis, Andy Williams and Carrie Underwood
2. Oh Holy Night - Martina McBride
3. Blue Christmas - Elvis
4. Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer - Gene Autry
I had this record when I was young. It was a 78 and was very
scratchy but I loved listening to it!
5. Here Comes Santa Claus - Gene Autry
6. Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree - Brenda Lee
7. It's Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas - Bing
8. Silver Bells - Johnny Mathis
9. Holly Jolly Christmas - Burl Ives
10. Sleigh Ride - Johnny Mathis and The Boston Pops w/John Williams
11. The Christmas Song - Nat King Cole
12. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas - Frank
13. Christmas Eve/Sarajevo - TRO
14. Mary did you know - Mark Lowery, CeeLo Green
15. I heard the bells on Christmas Day - The Carpenters
16. Silent Night - Johnny Mathis
17. White Christmas - Bing and Johnny Mathis
18. The Lords Prayer - Johnny Mathis
19. How Great Thou Art - Carrie Underwood & Vince Gill
There are really more that I love, but for me I need to hear the songs above at least once every season to get me in the Christmas spirit. I want to thank Fadra (Thanks!) for her post because I had a really good time today looking for and listening to these songs.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks for sharing! i love listening to Christmas songs, too, especially the older ones - really puts me in the mood :)
ReplyDeleteAw, I love that I inspired you to create your own list! And I see you are into a lot of old school Christmas music. I, too, had the Gene Autry Rudolph record but mine was a 33 1/3 :)
ReplyDeleteNeed to check out the Cee Lo Green song!
