Christmas Is About Music... What's Your Favorite Christmas Song?

The Christmas Season Is About Music... 

 

What would the Christmas holiday season be without music? Christmas music is a big part of the holidays and it's the only holiday with such a wide range of music so integral to its celebration. I look forward to the music very year and during the month of December my car radio is always set to the station(s) that play "all Christmas music all the time."  I'm certain we all have our favorite Christmas songs. I freely admit a preference for traditional songs like Silent Night, O' Holy Night, Joy To The World,  Hark The Herald Angels Sing, etc. And even my phone ring tone is Joy To The World during December. Although, I suspect I'm a bit "out of style" in my Christmas music preferences.

 

My favorite Christmas song is O' Holy Night. What's your favorite Christmas song?

 

 

 

#1 Christmas Holiday Song In 2019

 

"All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Maria Carey is the most streamed song according to Billboard with 35+ million weekly streams in the USA this year so far. This song has also been tops on Spotify and Youtube. This song turns 25 years old this Christmas season and also topped the charts in first place in 2018. Did you know that "All I Want For Christmas Is You"  has enjoyed global sales of over 16 million copies and  remains Maria Carey's biggest international success? It's also the 12th best-selling single of all time, the best selling Christmas single by a female artist overall, the song is also the best-selling holiday digital single ever, and has earned over $60 million in royalties.

To bring peace to men on earth.”

Hi Nina Hollander 

I am not sure how I missed this because I follow you. I happened to see Roy Kelley's reblog so here I am.  

I was humming "All I Want For Christmas Is You!" as I clicked on the blog and there it is!  Featured by you!  I fell in love with this because I love the movie "Love Actually".  I personally think the rendition which is sung by Olivia Olson from Love Actually is absolutely my favorite.  Thank you so much for brightening up my day!

Hi Nina Hollander 

There are so many wonderful Christmas songs and I'm very happy to report I'm hearing Christmas music all over, everywhere I go, even the Post Office!!! It really is music to my ears and calming too. I absolutely love John Groban. He went to the same Summer Camp where my son went. Today I heard "Oh Christmas Tree"... the funny thing is, each time I hear a Christmas song this season for the first time in a long time, I keep sayinng, "this is one of my favorite songs!"

Nina- thank goodness Roy Kelley reblogged this or I would have missed it. I have to say that I love any Christmas song sung by Josh Groban or Johnny Mathis!!! I like Jingle Bell Rock. I'm also with Sheri Sperry - MCNE® in that I do love the version of "All I Want for Christmas is You" from Love Actually.

Kathy Streib hi Kathy... I love Josh Groban, myself. And I admit to a weakness for Dean Martin. (I guess that totally ages me!)

Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP hi Patricia... there's something about Christmas music that puts a bit of spring in one's step and lifts one's mood. I also love Josh Groban. As for "Oh Christmas Tree," as a child I learned all the words to this song both in English and German. It's a very popular carol in Germany.

Hi Nina Hollander!  I loved your post when I saw the Roy Kelley reblog.  I have directed a number of children and adult choirs through the years; as a result I have a number of favorites.  However, I always look forward to the following two:              ['Twas} The Birthday of a King,  and a very old Polish carol:

                      Dzisiaj Betlejem    -   Today in Bethlehem.


Have a beautiful and holy Christmas.
