Favorite Holiday Music

You should be able to vote for more than one choice, if I set this poll up correctly.
 
I love the traditional Christmas carols.  I love to sing them and hear them.  I sing in a choir, so Christmas music is very special to me.
 
I also like "The Christmas Song" aka "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire" and "Jingle Bells."
 
My favorite instrumental holiday song is "Sleigh Ride" by Leroy Anderson.

Nope, not at all.  In fact, I had you in mind, Sonic, when I worded the options on this poll.  Notice that I said "holiday" music.  Do Jewish people not sing "Jingle Bells" or "Winter Wonderland?"  Those songs have no mention of the birth of Christ in them.  They are songs about the winter season.
 
Surely there are songs affiliated with Hannukah?  I'll put "other" as an option.

Can you give me a reasonable reason why you don't stop  Cry and start a Hannukah thread?

My very favorite is one written by Vince Vance, "All I Want For Christmas Is You"
There is another popular song with the same title that is good also!

I'm not familiar with that song, Luci, but it hints of romanticism.  Tongue

In no order...
 
"Sleigh Ride" - it's lively, can't help clapping my hands with the song
 
"Christmas Song" - the one that starts with "Chestnuts roasting..." I like the slow version, made by Nat King Cole I think. When this song plays, and I'm not doing anything, my mind flies...
 
Classic songs - Silent Night, Hark! The Herald Angel Sing, Oh Holy Night (is this classic?), The First Noel, etc.
 
"Christmas in our hearts" - Pau and sweetmisery should know this. This is a local song that has become a favorite every Christmas. Very good song. Another favorite.

I love Christmas music, many types. I never can remember the names of them tho.  Grin  
 
I love "Carol of the Bells" (?) and the Chestnuts Roasting song.
I also love Ringo Starr's "I Wanna Be Santa Claus" and John Lennon's "And So This is Christmas". And I KNOW that's not the real name of it LOL.

I can't think of too many that I donb't enjoy, some more than others, of course Cool
 
"Silver Bells" & "Winter Wonderland"  are also favorites.
