– Baby It’s Cold Outside – but specifically the Leon Redbone/Zooey Deschenal version (Zooey is from the movie Elf)
– Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) – U2
– Christmas Mean to Me – Hanson – the best version of this
– Happy Christmas (War is Over) – what you called So this is Christmas – I actually never used to like this song, but I love the Roch Voisine version – I love Roch Voisine actually, I’m a dork lol
– Happy Holidays by Andy Williams – just because it’s so silly
– Holly Jolly Christmas – Burl Ives – a classic
– I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas – the same version you put on there – I love Home Alone!
– Merry Christmas Baby – Eric Clapton & Sheryl Crowe
– Merry Christmas St. Nick – Beach Boys
– Please Come Home for Christmas – Jon Bon Jovi – how can you not love a Bon Jovi Christmas song??
– Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree – Home Alone again!
– Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer – the Jack Johnson version is fantastic (that’s why Rudolf is spelled different, his version spells it this way in itunes)
– Run Rudolph Run – used to like the Chuck Berry version, but the Los Lonely Boys version is my new favorite (the whole Los Lonely Boys Christmas CD is awesome)
– Seven Joys of Mary – Great Big Sea – I’m from the East Coast, I have to love GBS – plus the sixth joy makes me laugh every time!
– Sleigh Ride – the Ronettes – ding a ling a ling a ding dong ding
– What are You Doing New Year’s Eve – Harry Connick Jr. – makes me thing of old cartoons for some reason
– What Child is This – California Guitar Trio – really nice, relaxing, instrumental version of this song
And for anyone else from the East Coast, of course… Sobey’s Festive Touch! When I was a kid, this commercial starting was what started off the Christmas season. Here’s a link:
