It's that time of the year again where we're all forced to listen to Christmas music whether we like it or not. I was thinking today that this may be one of the only Christmas songs that I actually enjoy. What are your Christmas songs worth listening to?

This is my favorite. This version, specifically. I think the lyrics are very humbling (maybe it's a Catholic thing for me, I don't know), and her voice is so beautiful.

And this. Check out this video and those puffy ass sleeves.

And this, too. I will belt this one out loud, don't care who's around.

I also like the traditional carols, because we learned them in primary school and they were fun. I had to recite Hark! The Herald Angels Sing once at a Christmas festivity.

I like all the Christmas music, but that one is particularly nice.

I like this too, it is fun

...and... I am onto this now, which usually means I am stuck, for a while, at least...

This is the Christmas song of my childhood :

I actually taught it to my class of 2-3 year olds during my brief stint as a schoolteacher. A wonderful memory.

One of the first carols we learned in kindergarten. I still know the lyrics by heart.

This is my favourite Romanian carol. The lady sings it with a slight Moldavian accent and that is a folklore costume, but I'm not sure from what region of Romania.

At first, I thought this song was funny. Then it grew on me:

And I've been liking this one:

And anything by Trans Siberian Orchestra and Mannheim Steamroller.

I LOVE him! We watched one of his concerts on PBS last New Year's.

Thank you for this--I've played it quite a few times (jingle bells is pretty good too).
