What's your favorite holiday song?

For me it's Christmas is Coming from Charlie Brown.

Sleigh Ride.

I've never heard a version that I didn't like.

Not trying to be too much of a downer here, but I despise Holiday music except for Little Drummer Boy. I kinda like that one.

I like the classical choral Christmas music more than Rudolph and drummer boys. My favorite choral Christmas song is a sacred (religious) Latin piece called Gaudete.

Because of a giant Christmas show thingy (TV broadcast, people singing, dancing, that kind of thing) I was in as a kid, I have a weird assortment of lesser known Christmas songs floating around in my head.

Currently, though, I'm feelin' "Carol of the Bells". It's just so good, no matter the arrangement.

It's my favorite song for Christmas too. For the heck of it I surfed YouTube for different versions. The first two are by Libera:

1. I just like it because it's primarily vocal. I tend to like acapella or instrumental for some reason. This particular one isn't great vid/aud quality, but I still like it. Might be a favorite.

2. This Libera version is more polished:

3. Muppets (first min is pretty funny)

If you have a favorite version, reply. There are a lot of audio versions I like, but haven't found a favorite video of it yet. Video? Not so much.

It has to be this, it's my favourite holiday song and the lyrics are just perfect.

Santa Clause is Coming to Town by Springsteen is pretty awesome. So is Train's Shake Up Christmas.

As for " traditional " holiday songs, I'd say Deck the Halls is my favorite.
