myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720) 5 years ago

hello all of my great friends here at Mylot!

what is your favorite Christmas song of all time?

my favorite Christmas song would have to be "O Holy Night". i have heard many many people sing this Christmas song, and my favorite person that sings this song is by John Berry.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIDLhJGDPUY

i have many more Christmas songs that i enjoy listening to as well around this time of the year, like Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree" and "Jingle Bell Rock" by Brenda Lee. i also like "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer", and "Frosty The Snowman".

so, what is your favorite Christmas Song?

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everybody! :)

Josh Grobin sings a great version of "Oh Holy Night." I think my favorite is "Blue Christmas" by Elvis. It is difficult to make one choice. Have a good evening.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720)  5 years ago

hello carolbee

i have never heard of Josh Grobin before. what kind of a music artist is he? lol.

here is the link for "Blue Christmas" by Elvis Presley. i hope that you enjoy the song.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHv_5mU2MNI

and you are correct in saying that it is difficult to only choose just one Christmas song.

Happy Holidays!


myLot reputation of 99/100. carolbee (7684)   ranked 198 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  5 years ago

Thanks so much for the Elvis u-tube. Josh Grobin or Groban sings classical. He's young and has a fantastic voice. Am sure he will be on one or more of the Christmas specials this year. Maybe you can oh holy night on u-tube. He's well worth listening to.


geot08 (49)   ranked 23,098 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  5 years ago

Oh Josh Grobans voice is so heavenly! I love that song and his voice.


myLot reputation of 99/100. carolbee (7684)   ranked 198 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  5 years ago

The first time I heard Josh Groban sing he was 17. He's one of the best.


myLot reputation of 99/100. 3lilangels (2960)   ranked 304 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  5 years ago

josh has a very beautiful and powerful voice.i had one of his songs for my wedding,it was you lift me up.my favorite christmas song is silent night because ever since my babies were born that was the only song that would put them to sleep,and i still have to sing it to them.another one is all i want for christmas by mariah carey because my hubby sings me that song.pattie


myLot reputation of 99/100. carolbee (7684)   ranked 198 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  5 years ago

"You Lift Me Up" by Josh Groban is an absolutely beautiful song. Good choice to play at your wedding.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720)  5 years ago

your very welcome, and i guess that i will have to go check out Josh Grobin. :)


myLot reputation of 99/100. carolbee (7684)   ranked 198 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  5 years ago

Be sure to find his song, "O Holy Night." Don't think you will be sorry. I think it's Groban but am sure you will find it.

myLot reputation of 99/100. carolbee (7684)   ranked 198 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  5 years ago

Honestly I think O Holy Night has to be my favorite as well. It is just so beautiful! But there are so many and they are either peppy and get you in the holiday spirit or they really make you feel cozy and warm adn feel the spirit of the Lord in your heart.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720)  5 years ago

hello mamasan

me too. when i hear "O Holy Night", it makes me want to just sit down and just sob. lol. but it is such a beautiful and heartwarming song as well. it is a song of what the season should be.

i hope that you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and holiday season this year and many more years to come!

I also enjoy O Holy Night, RLFinNash. Especially with a violin. Perhaps Ano will play it for us.

hello transdisc

i just checked out YouTube's website for the Ano version of O Holy Night and i did not find it there. so sorry. but i did provide a link for the song O Holy Night by John Barry. did you give it a listen to? thanks.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  5 years ago

heehee. Ano is a friend of mine here on myLot. She's learning to play the violin.

My S.O. and I are going to a John Berry concert this December. She loves him for some reason.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720)  5 years ago

Mary Did You Know and Christas Day are my two favorites. I have Christmas Day on my profile, but you have to turn it on. I don't know how to make it play all the time. LOL

I like Clay Aiken's version of Mary Did You Know, but I just love the song and am happy to listen to anyone sing it.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720)  5 years ago

hello dfn

and i enjoy listening to "Mary Did You Know" as well. and also "Christmas Day".

here is the link for "Mary Did You Know" by Clay Aiken. i hope that you enjoy the song.

stjmen (57)   ranked 10,506 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  5 years ago

I think Mary Did You Know has to be one of the best Christmas songs. Especially the modern Christmas songs.
I think the best version of it though is by the songs original writer - Mark Lowry. Check out the link below. Mark is singing here with the Gaither Vocal Band

didn't Wynonna Judd sing this song also with a male artist? "Mary Did You Know"?, maybe with Kenny Rogers?

Hi RLFinNash! Ever since i was a child until now, "O Holy Night" is the only song that really touches my heart consistently every year. There are a lot of beautiful carols, old and new but nothing compares to "O Holy Night". Just my thoughts. Take care and have a nice day. :)

I always like to hear "Holy Night", especially the one from Mariah Carey. I really like this song, and every time I hear of this song, remind me of celebrating Christmas with my family in Asia.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720)  5 years ago

hello nyumix

i do not know if i have heard Mariah Carey sing "O Holy Night" before, but i will go to YouTube's website to see if i can find it for ya.

I have two favorite Christmas carols, and they are "The First Noel" and "O Holy Night". I like both equally so I can't decide which should come first. However, when it comes to carols, I like it sung as a choral arrangement with full orchestra backing, because they sound so angelic. There's one CD album that I have that have beautiful renditions of Christmas carols sung in continuous medleys. I like this collectors' CD so much, that I will keep playing it every Christmas season. This album is titled "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" by Ray Conniff. I've attach a copy of the CD cover. I also saw it selling in Amazon.com at this site http://www.amazon.com/Ray.... I highly recommend that you grab a copy of it for your own enjoyment. It's one of the best Christmas albums that I've come across in years. It's so good I'll never part with it for any amount of money. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Thanks for the link, Rhonda. I didn't know Elvis had a Christmas CD in 2006...must be a recompilation or remix from a very early album of his. "The First Noel" is a beautiful carol. No matter who sings it, it sounds great to hear.


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720)  5 years ago

your very welcome. and at Christmas time, is when all of the various artists come out. you know? have a good day.


myLot reputation of 98/100. lexus54 (2665)   ranked 2,437 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  4 years ago

Wow, another surprise from you. I can never thank you enough. You know, with digital remixing and other technologies available these days, any old singer who have retired or passed on can be brought back to life, it seems, just like Nat King Cole and his daughter Natalie in the song "Unforgettable". And so it is with Elvis Presley and many others. The music industry will make sure people won't forget the great singers of yesteryears this way.
