As Christmas is not good enough on its own, there are some songs that make the season so much more magical.
- “Mistletoe” by Justin Bieber
-
This might be controversial but every time my friends and I put on Christmas songs, “Mistletoe” is ALWAYS played. It might just be an our generation thing because Justin Bieber sings it, but it never fails to put a smile on my face.
- “All I Want for Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey
-
Of course, Mariah Carey has to be on this list. If you were to ask anyone about Christmas songs, they would know this song.
Fun fact, in high school I did a dance to this song in gym class.
- “Hallelujah” by Pentatonix
-
“Hallelujah” is a very traditional Christmas song and Pentatonix adds a new layer to the already iconic song. They have several other covers of Christmas songs but none of them stack up to this one in my opinion.
- “White Christmas” by Bing Crosby
-
This is another old traditional Christmas song. I think this song is so calming especially during the hectic holiday season and I like to listen to this when I need a second to think.
- “Santa Clause Is coming to town”
-
If I’m being honest, I have no idea who made this song first but it is a holiday classic. I feel like Michael Bublé is known for his Christmas songs/remakes.
When I was little I remember singing this song with my family on Christmas Eve.
This list could go on forever but as of this current moment, these are my top five favorite Christmas songs!
