Top 10 Christmas Songs 2008
Christmas is just around the corner and, instead of the usual drab Christmas music we've all become numb to, here are 10 Christmas songs that will have you tapping your feet and get you in the mood for the holidays.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #10
Ashanti & Beyonce - Silent Night
Okay, so perhaps it sounds like Ashanti and Beyonce are trying to outdo each other on this rendition of "Silent Night," but you have to admit that it sounds a whole lot better than what we’re used to hearing. A little R&B thrown into Christmas music never hurt anybody.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #9
Diana Krall - White Christmas
Diana Krall has one of the sweetest, sultriest voices around. And although she made a name for herself by biting all the songs of other people, she really does have that je ne sais quoi about her. And she gives "White Christmas" her signature touch and it is definitely easy on the ears.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #8
Dido - Christmas
Dido is one of those women with a milky, beautiful voice and her music is timeless and seemingly effortless. This is a beautiful Christmas song that you could listen to while you’re putting up decorations, having supper, or even making love. The spirit will be in you,
Top 10 Christmas Songs #7
U2 - It’s Christmas
U2 is classic and no matter what they’re singing, we all want to hear it. So when U2 released this Christmas single, we were all happy to discover that we weren’t relegated to listening to all of that old school music that the malls are constantly bombarding us with. “It’s Christmas” is a Christmas mainstay but U2 manages to give it a great upgrade.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #6
Anna Liani - Silent Night
French artist Anna Liani gives her version of “Silent Night” and her accent in the song makes it that much more interesting and original. Once you hear this single, your night will be anything but silent. In fact, it may turn into one of your best nights ever.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #5
Jason Mraz - Winter Wonderland
Jason Mraz has a voice that makes me feel like skipping, so when I heard his version of “Winter Wonderland,” I knew that it was worthy of this Top 10 list. So sit back, chill out and take a good listen to Jason.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #4
Bon Jovi - Please Come Home for Christmas
There’s something about this bluesy Bon Jovi song that makes me want to fall in love on Christmas. It’s incredibly sexy and has a flavor that is about more than just Christmas.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #3
Ashley King - Little Drummer Boy
Ashley King’s version of “Little Drummer Boy” is just awesome, if I could be so blunt. This song barely sounds like the Christmas music we’re used to. But when you find yourself bopping your head to Christmas music, you know that the artist is a freakin’ genius.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #2
Coldplay – Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
There’s just something about Chris Martin’s voice that makes you want to lay down and reflect on life. Throw in some lyrics about Christmas and there’s a good chance that you’ll want to hug and kiss everyone you know after listening to one of Coldplay’s songs.
Top 10 Christmas Songs #1
Ashley King - Christmas Song
Ashley King is new to the music scene but she nailed the Christmas music genre by coming up with a very inventive version of the “Christmas Song.” This song makes shopping for Christmas gifts and dealing with the in-laws that much easier.
