Well I have wanted to put on my top ten favorite Christmas songs but there are just way too many to only list ten, and I can't put them in order because I could never pick the best. I like all of these songs for different reasons. I included some of my favorite memories with each song title. I also have made links so you can look at the lyrics just in case one or two of these get in your head. Enjoy!
Angels We Have Heard On High This song is probably the reason I wanted to play the French Horn. I also remember loving playing the French horn to this during midnight mass.
Auld Lang Syne Just love the tune, have no idea what it means, but Bob thinks it is the worse song to sing about forgetting old acquaintances.
Last Christmas –Wham I believe we had a keyboard that had this song as a pre-set. It drove my mom crazy.
Deck The Halls This song makes me laugh because during A Christmas Story the Asian men sing farahrahrah.
Feliz Navidad Love it only for Taco John’s Nacho Navidads.
Frosty The Snow Man Comes from my favorite Christmas cartoon. I love Frosty.
It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year Because Christmas is really the most wonderful time of the year.
Jingle Bell Rock
Rocking Around The Christmas Tree Both of these songs were ones that I did baton recitals for at the nursing home when I was little. I still remember my x-large t-shirt with a stenciled Christmas tree on it, white itchy tights, and tinsel as my costume. Thanks Mollie's Twirlers.
Carol Of The Bells I love it from Home Alone, it is just a beautiful song.
O Come, All Ye Faithful I tortured my college friends with this tune because I had my own version of lyrics in made up Latin. Est to mey nee pahh too…..Christe atoo.
Over The River And Through The Woods This reminds me of 4th grade music class with Mrs. Glade, I believe I may have sang this for a concert.
Sleigh Ride The ultimate song to play in S-O High School Band. Love it love it love it.
White Christmas Bing Crosby, Christmas classic and you have to think of Kevin in Home Alone putting on the after shave. Ahhhhh.
Winter Wonderland I had to add this one because the lyrics are really odd, who is Parson Brown and why are we calling our snowman that? Also who just gets married when we go to town?Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer Always thought this song was funny and thought of my Grandma Judy getting run over after our Christmas Eve.
Happy Christmas (War is Over)- John Lennon Just a good song, nice calm lyrics, this had to be on the list.
Song For A Winter's Night -Sarah Mclachlan I ran across this song and I fell in love with it, makes me want to curl up next to a fire with some hot chocolate and think of the good times.
Let It Snow Because it needs to snow for it to feel like Christmas
Mele Kalikmaka This song makes me want to go to Hawaii, Merry Christmas to you!
The Chanukah Song- Adam Sandler For all of the Jewish people that read my blog…favorite lyrics are, "O.J. Simpson, not a Jew But guess who is? Hall of famer Rod Carew- he converted"
Little Saint Nick-Beach Boys The old Coca Cola commercial with the polar bears, makes me want to get up and dance.
All I Want for Christmas (Is You) - Mariah Carey This song is God awful. It haunted me one Christmas, I heard it at least 4 times a day. Hate it. But now you can have it in your head.
Baby It’s Cold Outside I love this song when it is in the movie Elf. Kind of a naughty song, but a fun little duet.
Christmas -Blues Traveler I could rock out to this song all year round, so many vocal parts and a fun message about what Christmas has become.
I'd love to hear what some of your favorite Christmas songs are...please?

That list was classic!
I wish I still had that keyboard that played LAST CHRISTMAS! but none of my christmas classic made the list! me and the chipmonks worked hard on that shit! NACHA BRAVA!
What a fun post! I giggled through the whole thing. I think you pretty much got all my favorites, but there are a couple that I thought of that aren't on your list. I really like that Christmas Shoes song. Not sure who sings it, but I love the message. The other song I thought of is Santa Baby - honestly, half the time I like this song and half the time I think it's really annoying. I guess it just depends on my mood. Ooo, just thought of 3 more. I also like the chipmunk Christmas song, rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, and santa claus is coming to town. I love pretty much ALL christmas music! I could listen to it all year round!!
