    Question "Must have" Christmas music?

    What 5 Christmas songs do you "have" to hear to consider it Christmas? I love Christmas music but my top 5 are probably:

    1. The Christmas Song - Nat King Cole
    2. Do You Hear What I Hear? - Bing Crosby
    3. Breath of Heaven - Amy Grant
    4. Sleigh Ride - Boston Pops
    5. Joy to the World - Julie Andrews

    O' Holy Night - Michael Crawford.
    *Nobody* on earth sings it like him. I literally get goose bumps when I listen to him.

    I totally love Mariah Carey and she sings Christmas songs from the bottom of her heart, did you know she lived on $1 a day while growing up, the family was poor, look at her now. God does make miracles happen!

    Well guess I'm a Scrooge, don't like Christmas carols at all. The only Christmas music I like is the score to "The Nutcracker". Tchaikovsky plays pretty much all day Christmas at my house.
