The Ultimate List Of Christmas Songs

In This Article:

Christmas is right around the corner and a lot of people wait until after Thanksgiving to celebrate it.

However, Christmas music can be enjoyed all year round so I made the ultimate list of Christmas songs to listen to even when it's not ~officially~ Christmas time.

So, it's time to sit back and listen to some Christmas music to uplift our spirits while we wait for the snow to come.

All I want for Christmas is You — Mariah Carey

This song tops the charts every holiday season and is the ultimate Christmas bop.

White Christmas — Bing Crosby

A little slower compared to some of the newer pop Christmas songs, but still a classic.

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas — Frank Sinatra

This is another slow one but the message of the lyrics are still ever so sweet.

It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas — Michael Bublé

Honestly, I love Michael Bublé no matter what he sings but his soothing voice is perfect for Christmas carols.

Believe — Josh Groban

From one of the best Christmas movies, The Polar Express, which I personally watch every Christmas.

Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree — Brenda Lee

I wasn't the only one that had to dance to this song during elementary school Christmas performances, right?

Besides, it's so catchy and is one of the most upbeat Christmas songs.

Mistletoe — Justin Bieber

Every one misses Justin Bieber when he looked like this and this pop song will help you relive those glory days.

I mean, how often can you say that you listen to a Christmas song with the word "shawty" as one of the main words in the chorus?

Jingle Bell Rock — Glee

You might be able to get over seeing this song in the iconic Mean Girls scene if you listen to this cover.

To be honest, I actually often like the Glee versions of songs more than the originals.

The Christmas Song — Nat King Cole

This song has some of the most recognizable Christmas lyrics.

Baby It's Cold Outside — Idina Menzel & Michael Buble'

The meaning behind this song has been controversial over the past couple of years but the music video is just so cute.

Plus, this version is a lot more friendly than the original version's lyrics — you can literally grab one of your friends and sing the duet through and through.

Here Comes Santa Claus — Gene Autry

Another upbeat classic that reminds you of your childhood.

Last Christmas — Wham!

c1.staticflickr.com

Honestly, this is kind of a sad one but you definitely need to listen to it to get over your Christmas blues!

Let it Snow! — Dean Martin 

c1.staticflickr.com

If it's freezing outside then we might as well sing in hopes that we will get snow.

Holly Jolly Christmas — Lady Antebellum

Another Christmas carol that everyone can dance to.

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer — Burl Ives

Everyone knows these lyrics so it's a great song to listen to so everyone can sing along.

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) — Michael Buble'

Another great one if you're spending the holidays alone plus you can't go wrong with Michael's soothing voice.

Hallelujah — Pentatonix

Everyone loves a great a cappella song and you won't know if the chills are from the song or the chilly weather outside.

Blue Christmas — Elvis Presley

Another sad Christmas song but Elvis has a sound like no other so you can't go wrong.

Santa Tell Me — Ariana Grande

Honestly, she's been the Queen of Pop lately and this original song tells you why.

You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch — Nashville Cast

This is another TV show cover but we have to add this song to the list especially with the new Grinch out in theaters this year.

I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus — Jessica Simpson

upload.wikimedia.org

Truly a weird Christmas carol but we like to keep things interesting during the holiday season.

Santa Baby — Ariana Grande

This is another oddly sexual Christmas carol but it's been covered by a variety of artist and, again, Ariana is currently the Queen of Pop.

Sleigh Ride— Fun.

upload.wikimedia.org

Another one that has been covered by a variety of artists but this cover is especially unique.

Winter Wonderland — Lady Gaga & Tony Bennett

To end the list, another Christmas duet because what better way to celebrate Christmas than by singing with someone!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
