Mariah Carey, “All I Want For Christmas Is You” But I do, as I’ve mentioned, have a 125-song Christmas playlist, so I figure that qualifies me as much as anybody to make this list. I’m not David Letterman, or even Greg Behrendt. The ones you dance around the room singing with your friends. The ones you turn up when they come onto your car radio. And I went through a boy-band phase like every other girl of my generation, but for the love of God, NSync actually has a song that includes the lyrics, “I never knew the meaning of Christmas until I looked into your eyes.”īut there are some awesome radio carols, too. I can’t stand “Santa Baby” no matter who sings it. “Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer.” “The Twelve Pains of Christmas” (seriously, I want to strangle the guy hanging up the lights by the time the song’s over). Of course, there are some truly atrocious radio carols. Sometimes, you even grow to love them as much as the traditional carols. They may only marginally have to do with Christmas, and may not even completely make sense, but you still listen. The ones that a popular artist records to get some guaranteed airplay for a month. There are the traditional carols, whether they be the religious ones (“Joy to the World,” “O Holy Night,” “Hark the Herald Angels Sing,” “Away In A Manger,” “What Child Is This,” “Angels We Have Heard on High,” “O Little Town of Bethlehem,” etc.) or ones about Santa/family/Christmas prettiness (“Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” “Silver Bells,” “Winter Wonderland,” “Sleigh Ride,” “The Christmas Song,” etc.).īut then there are the radio carols. Even if I listed the 125 songs on my Christmas playlist, I know I’d still forget some.īut there are, of course, two categories of carols. Yeah, I know that’s kind of an obvious statement, but really, I was just thinking about it and I realized that if I tried to make a list of every Christmas carol I know, I don’t think I could do it.
