Top Ten Christmas Songs

In the spirit of Christmas, I want to do a Top Ten series. I'd like to feature songs, movies, traditions, ornaments and memories. We'll see how diligent I am about posting all of this in the midst of the season! These songs are in no particular order because I have TOO many I love!

Top Ten Christmas Songs:

10: Silent Night
9: Merry Christmas Darling (by the Carpenters -if you know me, you know my obsession)
8: Away in a Manger
7: Joy to the World
6: All is Well
5: Mary Did You Know?
4: All is Well
3: Home for the Holidays
2: Hark the Herald Angels Sing
1: O Holy Night (I particularly like Martina McBride's rendition)

I LOVE listening to Christmas music and have to purposely hold myself back from getting it out until November 1. If I must confess, I usually still have a Christmas cd in the car year round! Some of my favorites to listen to are: the Carpenters Christmas albums, Point of Grace, the Katinas, Avalon, Martina McBride, Amy Grant, James Taylor, and Stephen Curtis Chapman.

What is your favorite Christmas song? Are there songs that instantly transport you to a specific memory? Share them here!

  1. I love Christmas music too!!! Shane & Shane and Josh Groban Christmas are awesome! Don't know why but I love O Come O come Emmanuel!

  2. I like that song too. It always seems a little dark. I forgot to put "Sweet Little Jesus Boy" on my list. Maybe I should have made a Christian Christmas songs list and a Secular Christmas songs list. I still like the songs like "Frosty", "Jingle Bells" and "Rudolph".

  3. I love Hark the Herald Angels Sing, O Come, O Come Emmanuel, Joy to the World, O Little Town of Bethlehem, Christmas in Dixie, A Tender TN Christmas, Hard Candy Christmas (Dolly), Christmas in Kentucky (Kenny Rogers), Martina's O Holy Night, a couple of Sugarland's songs, any Point of Grace or Josh Groban. Even with that massive list it was hard to end there! Emily
