What's your favorite holiday song(s)?

Just about anything by Andy Williams. Great voice. I've also got a pretty good selection of blues christmas albums. And another I like is Dwight Yoakam's christmas record. particularly "Silver Bells".

 
Varies from year to year. The last few Christmases I have been wearing out my She and Him CDs (absolutely love me some Zooey). This year, this song has been at the top of my playlist.

 
I’ve always liked Baby it’s Cold Outside, with Dean Martin crooning...then I realized it’s a little “rapey.”

Any of the Burl Ives songs are terrific

It is not close to being rapey. What is wrong with people now days.

Nole Lizards beat me too it, there is a great back story to the Bowie/Crosby collaboration that required an entire rewrite an hour or two before the recording. Total mismatch of styles but it simply worked and has aged very well...still in rotation on radio more than almost any holiday song. I’ll always stop and listen when it comes on...timeless.
