"Winter Wonderland" - Eurythmics "Wonderful Christmastime" - Paul McCartney "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" - The Pretenders "Santa Baby" - Madonna "Christmas Wrapping" - The Waitresses "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town" - Bruce Springsteen "Merry Christmas Darling" - The Carpenters |

Christmas Eve/ Sarajevo - Trans Siberian Orchestra --seriously, this is the one you need.
Christmas Canon Rock - Trans Siberian Orchestra O Holy Night - Celine Dion -I'm not a fan of hers, but this is the best version, imo. Ava Maria - Andrea Bocelli Christmas Wrapping - Spice Girls Sleigh Ride - Spice Girls |
My Christmas library is RIDICULOUSS!!
Here are a few recommendations: Joy To The World - Whitney Houston Heart's entire Christmas album - A Lovemonger's Christmas Manheim Steamroller - Up above the Northern Lights Patty Loveless whole album - Bluegrass White Snow (it is amazing) Little Drummer Boy - Bob Seger Holly Jolly Christmas - Burl Ives I could go on and on..but these just stick out to me!! Of course, you must have Stevie's Silent Night!! |
Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy - Bing Crosby & David Bowie
Marshmallow World and Let it Snow - Dean Martin I'll Be Home for Christmas - Martina McBride O Holy Night - Josh Groban (though I can't stand him). Celine's version is great too. Carol of the Bells - John Williams Ave Maria - Jewel You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch ;) |
