I’ve been listening to a ton of classic xmas albums lately, and want some more to add to my xmas playlist.
Thx in advance.
Christmas Time - The Darkness
Not that I’m deeply into the darkness (or rock, for that matter), but the darkness brings a breath of fresh air to an otherwise repeated to hell list of music, both in style and melody.
Carol of the Bells, by Trans Siberian Orchestra… Hands down.
White Christmas.
The melody and chords both more complex than the average poppy Christmas song and yet are still musically perfect to me somehow.
The movie is surprisingly good too.
Let the bodies hit the floor by Bing Cosby
lol
Is that Matt Dillon at the beginning of that video??
I’ll be mainstream and I’ll say:
Underneath the tree by Kelly Clarkson
But I’d like to mention:
- Last Christmas by wham
- War is over by John Lennon and yoko Ono
- I’ll be home for Christmas sung by Tate McRae. Unfortunately that one seems like an apple music exclusive. I think it’s a nice cover though

I’m not Christian/religious at all, but I still have a very deep nostalgia for classic Christmas hymns like Silent Night, O Holy Night, etc. I remember sitting beside my tree as a child listening to our music lights playing midis of all of them. The lyrics can be discarded entirely.
Christmas Wrap by the Waitresses.
Sorry. I can’t.
