Wintersong - Sarah McLachlan for something really mellow and different
Christmas with the Rat Pack - Dean Martin
Christmas Greetings - Kenny Rogers
Merry Christmas with Love - Clay Aiken (not much of a fan of his, but this is a very nice, classic CD)
I like the Tran-Siberian Orchestra, but no one else in my family does, so I never get to listen to it. My son says it's just noise, which makes me laugh coming from a 3 yo.
Celine Dion (could listen to this year round!)
TransSiberian Orchestra (Misty: you can come listen at my house...LOL!)
Amy Grant
Josh Groban
Vince Gill
My favorite, though, is Collin Raye's!! It doesn't sound like country music at all...it is just good Christmas music!
Mariah Carey's is what I think is a new classic...and I really like the new one from Kristen Chenoweth (she's from Pushing Daisies, and was in Wicked).
I love me some Bing too.
But my all time favorite is Perry Como.
And Diamond Rio has amazing harmony and is a little spiritual, if you're into that sort of thing.
Oh how I love Christmas music! In my stash I have:
Harry for the Holidays ~Harry Connick Jr.
When My Heart Finds Christmas ~Harry Connick Jr.
Christmas Interpretations ~Boyz II Men
Noel ~Josh Groban
Christmas ~Manheim Steamroller
Christmas with Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby
A Jolly Christmas from Frank Sinatra (it has the best version of Jingle Bells)
Chipmunks Greatest Christmas Hits
I love anything by Manneheim Steamroller and I have an older one from Point of Grace (a female Christian group) that has a bunch of traditional Christmas songs that is awesome. And Martina McBride's Christmas album gets played a lot around here too. :thumbup:
Love TSO & Sarah McLaughlan. Definitely going to have to check out the Kristen Chenoweth album. Kurt Bestor has some really nice Christmas CDs that my family listens to a ton.
My most favorite is one called "Seasons Greetings" and it was put out by a company called Kelloggs (not the cereal) when my DH worked for a farm and ranch store many, many eons ago...
However, I do love my Kenny Chesney, TSO, and of course the classics of Bing Crosby, Perry Como, Doris Day and Mel Torme (3 cd set bought at WM called "Christmas Favorites").
