Christmas Music
I'm updating my Christmas playlist. I have all the old traditional carols by my favorite artists (ranging from Ella Fitzgerald to Pentatonix), but would love to add some contemporary tunes (by contemporary, I mean released in the last 10 years, lol). Religious or secular - what have you got?

Here are two Christmas albums that I really enjoy.
Wintersong by Sarah McLachlan https://itunes.apple.com/ca/album/wi...ng/id200717293 Barenaked Ladies Holiday (I'm going to hope they are known in your area -- but if not, rest assured they are not naked, nor in fact are they even ladies!) https://itunes.apple.com/ca/album/ba...ys/id693370852 |

Also, when my siblings and I were kids we listened to one CD at Christmas. Every Single Year. And we still listen to them as adults, and we make our kids listen to it too... It's the Do-Re-Mi Children's Choir. This is not modern, of course, but a great one for families

Kelly Clarkson Wrapped in Red (has classics and new originals). Christmas With Weezer (nothing original, but done in typical Weezer style). It Feels Like Christmas Time or Everything You Want for Christmas by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy (has classics and new originals). The best/funniest non-classic Christmas song, I feel, is by the Ramones (Merry Christmas I Don't Want to Fight Tonight).

I just checked my Christmas Music playlist, I have way too much! 191 songs! A lot of country, if you like Country and I hook you up.
Sister Hazel has a couple good ones I have too. |

Gorillaz had a free Christmas album, too. I'm not sure if it's still free (it's a couple years old), but it was good. They're one of my faves.

also, it may sound weird, but fisher price has a lullaby sort of christmas cd that we have and I looooove it. If you like Enya, you'll like this CD as the singer sounds similar to Enya.

I literally just shared this on FB. I found this group a couple of days ago and grabbed their album. It's so fun, and works awesome for me while I work since they are mostly instrumentals

Have you heard the Casting Crowns "I Heard the Bells" - my all-time favorite!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7670CXvPX0 (that's the live version, I like the recorded even better) Also, if you like instrumental, check out The Piano Guys. And something else a little different The Priests. I also LOVE Rascall Flatts "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen." Last edited by maryinaz; 12-02-2013 at 10:43 AM. |

Callie Moore and her sister, Colette Butler, did two great Christmas renditions I'm absolutely obsessed with-- Bring a Torch Jeanette Isabella and God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman... they top my playlist EVERY year (and yes, they're on Spotify)

I highly recommend Let it Snow Baby, Let it Reindeer by Relient K. Super fun and has some great original songs on it as well as some modern renditions of traditional stuff.
