Cue the name puns.

Christmas songs seem to get some mixed reactions from the general audience – some people love them to bits, others hate them with a passion. I myself belong to the former side of the fence. I love hearing Christmas songs blasted over department store speakers, and I shamelessly spam the replay button on my Christmas playlist.

Here are a few selections from the aforementioned playlist that is guaranteed to add a little bit of Christmas sparkle to your day.

Opening up the list is Tyler Ward and Alex G’s awesome, super fun cover of “Baby It’s Cold Outside.” It’s really hard not to get pumped for Christmas after watching this hilarious, silly Christmas video.

 

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) is a classic, although unfortunately, Darlene Love’s original version isn’t one you’ll hear on the airwaves or in the malls too often. Upbeat but with bittersweet lyrics, it’s a perfect ode to someone who won’t be home for Christmas this year.

 

Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” is one of the most-covered Christmas songs in the past few years, but very little comes close to the original.

 

I think we would all be lying to ourselves if we said that we have never sang along to the Grinch song at Christmas. Dr. Seuss’ classic kids’ movie will stay in our hearts long past the time when we’re no longer considered kids.

 

Closing up this list is one more Christmas classic by Frank Sinatra. There really is nothing that beats the fireside-fuzzy feeling you get from listening to old carols in the warmth of your living room.

A very merry Christmas from all of us at YAA!
