Honestly, who doesn’t love Christmas music? I’ll tell you who: nobody. Here are the top 10 songs you need on your playlist this season.
1. Holly Jolly Christmas by Burl Ives
This one is a classic. This is one of the best songs to play while you’re driving through some Christmas lights on a cold December night. As the song says, it’s the best time of the year.
2. Jingle Bell Rock by Bobby Helms
A perfect tune to pretend that you and your friends are the characters from Mean Girls. Not only is there a dance for this song, but it’s pretty catchy if you listen to it.
3. Blue Christmas by Elvis Presley
Now I know what you’re thinking, “Why is this sad song in the top 10?” Whenever I hear this song, I just imagine hot young Elvis serenading me by the fire place with a nice glass of wine. I don’t know about anyone else, but this sounds like heaven to me.
4. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas by Judy Garland
This is the song your little cousin sings at their Christmas play at their elementary school, and tears pour down your face because it’s truly precious. And the sound of Judy Garland wishing me a happy holidays makes me feel warm and fuzzy.
5. You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch by Thrul Ravenscroft
This is a fun one to sing in the car with your pals after you’ve a Holiday Movie Marathon, especially when one of your friends hates Christmas songs.
6. All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey
If you’re trying to get yourself a new bae this season, this is the song you play for them. They’ll get the message, I promise.
7. It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas by Michael Buble
This song really sets the holiday mood while you’re decorating your Christmas tree. It gives you the warm and fuzzies, and makes you want to hang out with your parents and drink hot cocoa.
8. Mistletoe by Justin Bieber
Yet another bae-catching song. This is how you seal the deal, you let him know what you want from that mistletoe.
9. Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree by She & Him
This one is a perfect holiday jam. Play this at your Christmas party, when you and all your pals are wearing those ugly sweaters and drinking some eggnog.
10. Santa Claus Is Coming To Town by Frank Sinatra
This oldie is the important one. It reminds you to be good so you get your presents from the big man in red. So, be good for goodness sake!
