All Christmas Songs

Neil Diamond was a favorite musician of my mother and father.  They always liked to tell the story of the first concert they went together was a Neil Diamond concert, where cannon balls were shot into the air.  I think my mother also liked him so much because her name was Caroline.  She was our [...]

Here is a beautiful little Christmas number performed by Coldplay. I have to admit I am a Coldplay fan.  I enjoy that their music is not too abrasive.  Often I will love a band, and then all the sudden they get crazy on me and will throw in an abrasive song with heavy guitars or [...]

My father loved Johnny Cash, and so do I.  I found this heartwarming video of  ”The 12 Days of Christmas” from the Johnny Cash Christmas show.  It is so sweet.  Please take five minutes from your busy day and enjoy this Christmas video.

  I love this soft, sweet version of O Come O Come Emmanuel by Sixpence None the Richer!  This was released on their album The Dawn of Grace. 

“You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” is the Christmas song composed in 1966 for the infamous movie How the Grinch Stole Christmas!  The iconic song was composed by Albert Hague and performed by the one and only Thurl Ravenscroft.  What would a Christmas music website be without this song?  Enjoy!

I have been in love with Badly Drawn Boy since I first saw the movie About A Boy.  Badly Drawn Boy, AKA Damon Gough, is an English alternative singer and songwriter.  His sweet melodies are romantic and lovely.  Apparently, this song, Donna & Blitzen, was featured in a commercial for Sears.  Enjoy the animal pictures that [...]

She & Him is the Indie love child of musicians Zooey Deschanel & M. Ward.  One of my favorite songs of theirs is Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas of their album A Very She & Him Christmas which was released earlier this year!

Take a moment from your day to relax and listen to Christmas Time is Here.  Such a simple yet such a beautiful song.  Vince Guaralidi Trio really know how to make that warm Christmas feeling come alive! Charlie Brown Christmas reminds me of all my wonderful childhood memories and how exciting Christmas really is.  Oh, [...]

I know I recently posted a different Sufjan Stevens Christmas song but I couldn’t resist posting another.  Also, as I just posted “Joy to the World” by Dolly Parton yesterday, I thought this would be a great way to follow up on that. I own the box set “Songs for Christmas” by Sufjan and I [...]

I love Home Alone and watch it every Christmas.  One song in particular from the movie that stands out to me is, “O Holy Night”.  I still get teary-eyed every time I watch the scene in the church with the little girl signing to her estranged grandfather.  You know the scene, the “sad scene”.  Anyways, [...]

Whether its in a majestic cathedral, a school auditorium or a shopping mall, there’s nothing like a familiar Christmas melody to put a person in the holiday spirit. Its amazing how the familiar strains of Silent Night or Joy to the World create feelings of joy, hope and peace. Why does Christmas music evoke such [...]
