There was a time when I was almost a snot about White Christmas, the ONLY version I wanted to hear was Bing's. It's still probably my favorite version, but I do listen to others sing it, too. :o

it's weird how many people seem to like white christmas, as i can't stand any version!! least of all the elvis one. *shudders* Any ways, my faves:

anything by josh groban, faith hill, and martina mcbride

all i want for christmas is you, mariah carey version and the girl from love actually version

happy christmas, war is over (say what you want, i find it funny.)

the christmas shoes (i like sad songs because they remind us that christmas isn't all happy and stuff for everyone.)

i love lots of others, but i can't remember them as of this moment:jumping:

All the old classics are my favorites - modern Christmas Songs just don't have the same feel. The only Christmas Album I own is Josh Groban's - and I love it, except that it's missing my favorite Josh Groban Christmas Song - O Holy Night! :(

I like Josh gorban too, he really touches my heart with his songs..
But definitely, old classic Christmas songs are the best ever (at least for me)!! Sometimes I just wish I lived those years.. I love the atmoshpere of those days, the music, the movies, everything was so unique.. :santa:

Check out New Orleans jazz singer Linnzi Zaorski's new Christmas CD "It's A Wonderful Record" sure to be a new classic! It's on iTunes and her website.

Another great new holiday release out of New Orleans is Kermit Ruffins "Have A Crazy Cool Christmas".

As for past albums, you gotta love the Christmas albums of Richard Cheese and Squirrel Nut Zippers.

Ho Ho Ho!!!

My two none traditional favorites are "Little Drummer Boy" Bing Crosby and David Bowie and "Fairy tale of New York" The Pogues

But really, I like all Christmas music. Sinatra and Crosby, in my opinion, do it the best however.

There are some artists that I think are the voices of Christmas -- like the Carpenters and Johnny Mathis. When you hear the first notes of "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas" by Johnny Mathis, my Christmas spirit can't be contained...it just makes me light up.
