SLIDESHOW: Top 10 Holiday Songs: What's Your Fave?

1 of 10

"O Holy Night" - Josh Groban

It's hard to beat the sound of Josh Groban, no matter how cheezy you may think he is, during the holidays. This gives us the chills everytime.

  2. "Hanukkah Song" - Adam Sandler

    "Hanukkah Song" - Adam Sandler

    This is a crowd favorite at our annual friend's caroling party. "Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights!" Yes, please!

  3. "Where Are You Christmas?" - Faith Hill

    "Where Are You Christmas?" - Faith Hill

    As first heard in the latest version of "The Grinch," Faith Hill's "Where Are You Christmas?" is touching even to a miserly old Grinch.

  4. "All I Want for Christmas" - Mariah Carey

    "All I Want for Christmas" - Mariah Carey

    What Christmas season would be complete without a little Mariah? She can belt her way into any holiday party. And we're sure it's the most-requested karaoke tune this month, too!

  5. "White Christmas" - Bing Crosby

    "White Christmas" - Bing Crosby

    Nobody does it better than the original, Bing Crosby. He can sing to us anytime... That voice. Mmm.

  6. "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" - Judy Garland

    "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" - Judy Garland

    Sticking to the old classics, Judy Garland's famous song from "Meet Me in St. Louis" is a surefire favorite on our Christmas song list. (scroll to 1:49 for the song)

  7. "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" - Brenda Lee

    "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" - Brenda Lee

    This song was recorded back in 1958 but it still manages to capture the fun spirit of Christmas, so much that it was used in the 1990 kids' film "Home Alone."

  8. "Silent Night" - Mannheim Steamroller

    "Silent Night" - Mannheim Steamroller

    Some people love 'em, some people hate 'em. But we actually like Mannheim's instrumental version of "Silent Night." There are too many versions to pick a good "original." Stille nacht, anyone?

  9. "Feliz Navidad" - Jose Feliciano

    "Feliz Navidad" - Jose Feliciano

    Habla espanol? Us neither. Well, pocito. But this doesn't stop us from loving this festive Christmas song written by Puerto Rico's Jose Feliciano in 1970. Me gusta mucho!

  10. "12 Days of Christmas" - John Denver and the Muppets

    "12 Days of Christmas" - John Denver and the Muppets

    What is a partridge anyway? No matter, we love us some Muppets. And of course, the late John Denver. So put them together and you get a wonderful Christmas tune. Now where are those five gold rings?

Today marks day three of our 12 days of Christmas countdown. Check out days one and two.

"Deck the halls with...

five gooooooooold rings...

fa la la la la... la la la la...

away in a manger...

the stars are brightly shining...

fa la la la la... la la la la...

Jack Frost nipping on your nose...

fa la la... la la la... la la la..."

No matter your religion, we're sure you've heard of most of these lyrics at some point during the holiday season. And though caroling may not be on your to-do list, it's hard not to catch some of these songs whether you're radio-hopping stuck in Los Angeles traffic or schlepping gifts through the Mall of America.

    I actually greatly object to the infantile political Incorrectness of using the term "holiday" when what true honesty meant to ask us was concerning our Favourite Christmas song!!!! :(

    There is nothing like a Pure rendition of this song where the song itself and its holiness is put before the performer :)

    At least you were honest enough to use the word "Christmas", rather than the weakly non-effort, "holiday"!! ;)
