Christmas is next week. Have you been caroling? Have you been listening to your favorite Christmas songs?
I’ve got a few that every year that make Christmas official. Here are my top 5 favorite Christmas songs that I’ve got to hear. EVERY season:
- Silent Night by the Temptations. You know you loooove hearing those voices in harmony and you know your parents loved it too. Classic
- This Christmas by Donnie Hathaway, because when you hear this one playing on the radio, it’s official. It’s Christmas time.
- Santa Claus go Straight to the Ghetto: who doesn’t like James Brown? “Hitch up your reindeer HUH“
- Let it Snow by Boys II Men. Even though I hate cold weather, I wish just once I could listen to this song by the fireplace and watch it snow outside on Christmas day.
- And last, one of my favorites, All I want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey. This song just makes me dance and sing. It’s been one of my favorites for almost 20 years now. ( It came out in 1994. Feel old now? Great, my work is done.)So I leave you with a little visual of it from last year with Jimmy Fallon. Cause it’s great. LOL
What are some of your favorite Christmas songs?

Silent Night is my all time favorite! I remember listening to it all the time in my grandfather's car on our way to church...any time of year! LOL! I also love This Christmas and Give Love On Christmas Day by New Edition...Classics!

Ugggh! You had me at #'s 1, 2, & 4. We have all of these on our playlist. I haven't heard the James Brown song (#3). I'm curious now though. But #5, I just lost all faith in you! Just kidding. But seriously Mariah's song is on my top 'NOT' this season. At this point I'm just over it.

Okay, now I feel old. Wow, I can't believe that Mariah Carey's song came out 20 years ago. Dang, now I'm dated. Either way, it's a great list! Boyz II Men is my most favorite group!
