Bing Crosby, White Christmas
Simone Chorus, Little Drummer Boy
Theme from Frosty the Snowman
Rudolph the Red nose Reindeer
Mannheim Steamroller, but don't know the name

There are a few others but I have to hear them to remember them ,LOL!
 
My favorite is from the 1974 cartoon called "Twas the Night Before Christmas." It's the one with the mice clockmakers where Santa doesn't want to come to their town because one of the young mice wrote him a nasty letter. So they make a big clock tower that plays this song:

"... come on old Kris Kringle, down the Milky Way. Christmas chimes are calling, 'Santa, we need you today.'"

You can hear it all through the episode: Rankin-Bass' Twas the Night Before Christmas

I also LOVE John Denver's (Emmet Otter) Where the River Meets the Sea which isn't neccessarily a Christmas Song but it's from a Christmas special.
 
"Please come home for Christmas"-Heartbreaker, but I love the song

"Pretty paper" Roy Orbison-The Classics never go out of fashion

"Christmas is the time to say I Love you" Billy Squier A rarely played gem from the 80's-I think it was made for an MTV special

The entire "Los Straitjackets" Christmas album-Guitar virtuosity applied to Classic Christmas Standards

Let me think, I know theres more!!:)

This was a nice rendition. Excuse the funky link, my first song did not copy corectly. I remember seeing this on TV. Bing and David. A drawn out beginning, but a nice song.
Love this one, too.

And of course, anything by The Chipmunks :LOL:

My first link was one on an old Elton song called "Ho, Ho, Ho - Who'd Want To Be a Turkey On Christmas" Apparently the site does not allow you to copy the exact link. I clicked back on it and it gave me another EJ song. Oh well. If interested, Google it ;)

I remember that Billy S song....
 
JOn Bon Jovi's Please Come Home for Christmas.
:)
oh and the song isn't bad either....

I want a hippopotomus for christmas
love that.

I'll have to finish later, but PDS, I understand and share the love of the gramma song.

Me too!
YouTube - I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas

That song came out right before the Oklahoma City Zoo wanted to get a hippo, so they used the song to raise money for one: I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas - FAQ.

My Little Drum, Vince Gauraldi - bit of a take off of Little Drummer Boy. Light, airy.
My Favorite Things, Larry Carlton. Not sure how this became a Christmas song, on his Christmas album. He such a great, melodic guitarist.
