The older the better for the most part, imo.

Agreed, I'm a pretty big Bing/Andy Williams/Dean Martin/Nat King Cole sort of guy

Not even that super religious anymore but many church songs, when done well are also really nice, like Come All Ye Faithful, Joy to the World, Silent Night, etc (also many sung by the aforementioned Nat King Cole)

Fairytale of New York by The Pogues is the one and only Christmas song that matters.  The rest is garbage in comparison.



it's incredible and I'm just going to say it...the best pogues song ever

Agreed and it's not even close IMO.

I'm a traditionalist, so it's Bing Crosby for me.

I don't know if I've said it before but Kacey Musgraves has the best modern Christmas album imo. But will check out this n*sync thing



I'm not joking that this is a pure holiday vibe

For the love of Christ, stop playing that damn Harry Connick Jr!
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Idk man, upbeat pop Christmas songs are my jam. I can think of loads post-dating NSYNC.




(got several songs like this where only the chorus is in English for some reason)


(love this one because it is basically exactly his biggest hit but subbing in the word christmas)

I usually never listen to Christmas music but I found some EDM mixes on Spotify that I've been listening to and enjoy.  :Jammin':

I've really been enjoying Josh Groban's christmas album this year.  I don't know why anyone else bothers to sing O Holy Night anymore.  He already did it best, imo.
