What are your favorite Christmas songs?

[krisy]

Mine are "Sleigh Ride", Jingle Bell Rock",that Charlie Brown piano song?, "SIlent Night",and " Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"-although that one chokes me up for some reason.

Louis Armstrong ~ What a Wonderful World. Not necessarily a Christmas song, but this is when I hear it the most.
I used to manage a Christmas store and everytime I worked, this CD played continuously!!

"Oh, Holy Night" seems to impart the deepest spiritual feelings of Christmas for me.

 

[Mr. P]

Call me Scrooge....Happy New Year!

 

[Shattered]

Hmm...

Bob Rivers - Wreck The Malls, We Wish You Weren't Living With Us...

 

[dilloduck]

"Grandma got run over by a reindeer" is always a tear jerker too! :

 

[MtnBiker]

Silent Night

Bob and Doug Mackensy's 12 Days of Christmas is pretty good.

"Grandma got run over by a reindeer" is always a tear jerker too! :

My son laughs so hard he's in tears at that song!!!!! Good one!

 

[Zhukov]

Trans-Siberian Orchestra - Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24)

 

[no1tovote4]

It isn't exactly a song, but I have an old Red Skelton record on which he tells a Christmas story called "The Little Christmas Tree". I never fail to tear slightly up when I hear it.

The old storytellers like that guy could really make a story.

 

[Jackass]

The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole is my all time favorite.

 

[JOKER96BRAVO]

The title song for Halo.
(I know it's not a Christmas song...but it's cool)

 

[Jimmyeatworld]

Generally speaking I don't like Christmas music, but for some reason I've always liked Winter Wonderland. I don't know if it's one of those subliminal things from my childhood or what.

 

[5stringJeff]

O Holy Night and Hark the Herald Angels Sing are my favorites, though I'll listen to just about any classical/symphony Christmas arrangements.

 

[Adam's Apple]

I like them all--great songs--every one, even the kids' songs such as "Up on the Rooftop". I love to go to kids' Christmas programs at schools just for the music. I especially like Bing Crosby's renditions of the "Little Drummer Boy" and "Do You Hear What I Hear?", Nat King Cole's "The Christmas Song", and Karen Carpenter's "I'll Be Home for Christmas."

I like the ones that Bob Rivers sings. Weird Al's "The Night Santa Went Crazy" is great too.

Santa Claus is Wielding a Gun
(to the tune of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town")

Oh, you better watch out
You better not pry
You better stay back
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is wielding a gun

He's making a list
And checking it twice
Gonna find out who
He's gonna ice
Santa Claus is wielding a gun

Don't give him any trouble
He'll blow you right away
Don't give him any cause to shoot
Or you'll make his Christmas Day

Oh, you better believe
He's packing a rod
No coal in your stocking
Just lead in your bod
Santa Claus is wielding a gun

He doesn't want cookies
Or none of that crud
He doesn't want milk
What he wants is your blood
Santa Claus is wielding a gun

(Music Bridge, with machine gun fire)

He doesn't trust nobody
Shot all his reindeer dead
Thought Dancer was a sissy
And thought Rudolph was a red

So, you better watch out
You better not pry
You better stay back
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is wielding a gun

----this is my personal favorite \/

Wreck the Malls
(to the tune of "Deck the Halls")
by Bob Rivers

Wreck the Malls this Christmas Seasons
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la;
Blow your cash for no good reason
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la;
Push your charge card to the limit;
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la;
Your checkbook now has nothing in it.
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Wreck the Malls with my friend Charlie;
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la;
Drive to K-Mart on his Harley;
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la;
Tamper with their Muzak System
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la;
Switch something for Twisted Sister
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

Wreck the Pet Store do some damage;
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la;
Send the beagles on a rampage;
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la;
Acting in an uncouth manner;
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Drop your drawers and moon that Santa.
Fa la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.

-- and this last one is what NakedEmperor sings every year

Walkin' Round in Women's Underwear
(to the tune of Winter Wonderland)

Lacy things - the wife is missin,
Didn't ask - her permission,
I'm wearin' her clothes,
Her silk pantyhose,
Walkin' round in women's underwear.

In the store - there's a teddy,
Little straps - like spaghetti,
It holds me so tight,
Like handcuffs at night,
Walkin' round in women's underwear.

In the office there's a guy named Marvin,
He pretends that I am Murphy Brown.
He'll say, "Are you ready?" I'll say, "Whoa, Man!"
"Let's wait until our wives are out of town!"

Later on, if you wanna,
We can dress - like Madonna,
Put on some eyeshade,
And join the parade,
Walkin' round in women's underwear!

The name of that one is "Merry Christmas, To You". At least I believe it is.

I like the way Silent Night translates to every language so well. It is one fantastic Christmas song.

Bing Crosby has the best Christmas music! We have a couple of his cds.

I forgot a couple too-"It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas" and " Little Drummer Boy".
