My favorites are:

If I Could Give You Anything For Christmas - The Greens

I Love To Spend Christmas At Calvary - Squire Parsons

Pretty Paper - Randy Travis

O Holy Night - The Judds

What Child Is This - The Judds

Beautiful Star of Bethlehem - The Judds

The Little Drummer Boy - Ricky Skaggs

Love Can Change Everything - Allison Pill & Naomi Judd (from the movie A Season for Love)

Five Little Fingers - Stephen Hill

I also like to hear Bing Crosby, Glenn Miller, Benny Goodmen, Dean Martin and all the old time country and Big Band singers from the 30's - 60's. I can not stand todays new music unless it is Southern Gospel.

We listen to a lot of classical (especially Baroque) music around the holidays as opposed to Christmas music; Mr. Ingy gets tired of Christmas music since you hear it in all the stores, etc. But for something lighter, I like the old pop Christmas songs sung by Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, etc. My current favorite is this one by Dean Martin. I also really like the Brian Setzer Orchestra's Christmas CDs when I'm in the mood for something really raucous.

I really love 'Baby it's Cold Outside'! The best version is the one sung in the movie 'Elf'!

As a city boy, my alltime favorite is Silver Bells.
