I'd agree with you on this one.

I too like the Bing Crosby - David Bowie Little Drummer Boy
and the Carol Of The Bells, we performed it at a Christmas music program back in elementary school....way back when the schools still referred to it as a Christmas program.

Stephon The Alternative Lifestyle Reindeer - Mac McAnally
Grandma Got Run Over By A Redneck - Eric Stone (I think)

I saw them on a PBS special a few years ago. I had to turn it off after about 5 minutes, it was torture. They're unlistenable.

Did that post get deleted? I don't see it anywhere. If so, I'll understand.
apparently the moderators are still punishing me

Actually, I'm a BIG Anne Murray fan (I'm told my father's family in Truro, N.S. knows/knew her family), and her album "Best of the Season" is one of my all time favorites.

Silent Night
The Story of Christmas - Peter Mayer
Harmony - Peter Mayer
Merry Christmas, Alabama - JB/Matt Betton
Stephon The Alternative Lifestyle Reindeer - Mac McAnally

Cheech & Chong "Santa Clause and His Old Lady"

I like this song a lot, it just seems out of place on that CD

"Quiet Christmas Morning In The Colorado Snow" - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Most all songs from Mannheim Steamroller and Trans Siberian Orchestra.

O Holy night - just love the song
Same Old Lang Syne - Dan Folgeberg
Mr Heatmiser - Big Voodoo Daddy
Bare Naked for the Holidays- CD Bare Naked Ladies
Boogie Woogie Christmas - CD Brian Setzer Orchestra
Jimmy Buffett - I'll be home for Christmas

Anyone else remember the Andy Williams and Perry Como Christmas albums? I'll guess there was more than one, but it reminds me of great times at my Grandparents house.

Oh Holy Night
Hark The Hearald- Charlie Brown Version

My favorite winter song, though, is "Song for a Winter's Night" by Gordon Lightfoot (and the cover by Sarah McLachlan). *sigh*

I just downloaded this from iTunes and I can't stop listening to it.....Gordy's version has always been a fav of mine, too....but when I heard Sarah's version.....LOVE IT....almost haunting....

I love the Chipmunk Christmas song, "I just want a hula-hoop...."

Brenda Lee - Rockin Around the Christmas Tree

The Boss - Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Bing Crosby - White Christmas

The whole album is awesome, I can't stop listening to it.

Many of my faves have already been listed and I could probably fill up several pages with all mine, I love Christmas music. But one of my absolute faves is John Denver's "Alfie the Christmas Tree/It's In Every One of Us" on the JD and the Muppets album. Makes me cry every time.

I'll be back with my list when I've whittled it down.

It's not Christmas until I've heard Christmas In Hollis by RunDMC

"My name's DMC with the mic in my hand and I'm chillin' and coolin' just like a snowman"

The video is kinda cool too

I swear this is the truth, I almost listed that song. The first time I heard it was on A Very Special Christmas compilation and that song is great.

I can't believe this one hasn't been covered...

A Charlie Brown Christmas - Vince Guaraldi Trio ..it's gotta be the most HIP collection I've ever heard!

also...
Run, Run Rudolph - Keith Richards
Christmas (Baby, Please Come Home) - U2
Merry Christmas, Baby - Bruce Springsteen
