Thought I'd get more festive with today's post and do my top favourite Christmas songs! Here we go:
Number 10) Do they know it's Christmas
I love band aid's spin on the festive tone of this song but spreads a serious message to everyone. It'll get you singing the lyrics with all your heart but teaches you how the less fortunate spread their Christmas. I just had to leave a spot on the list for this song!
Number 9) Jingle Bell Rock
As you've seen before on this blog, I have done a dance to this with my school. Although I had two left feet, I actually really enjoyed the time and I can't help but reminisce on all those funny memories with my drama friends attempting to dance. It hits a personal spot and I always jump up to dance to it no matter how bad I am!
Number 8) Step Into Christmas
Not gonna lie, I know all the lyrics to this because I always sing it to myself. It just one of those songs that get stuck in your head! It's so merry and amazing and fun and Urghghhh! I have a tendency to drag my sister into the middle of the living room and jump about to it haha.
Number 7) Thankful Heart
This belongs to one of the best Christmas films: The Muppets Christmas Carol. I watch it every year and my family gets extremly annoyed when I'm quoting the lines over the actual film, but when this song comes on I'm surprised they don't kill me.
Number 6) fairytale of New York
Yet another classic! The instructions to this song are pretty simple: mumble the starting lyrics and mope around on the stop, then grab a friend, start belting out the upbeat lyrics together while miming action and dancing crazily. Pretty simple. I don't think it's Christmas without this tbh.
Number 5) All I want for Christmas
It would be illegal not to put this in here. The many covers I've heard over the years (my favourite being dodies just saying) and the many ways people song this tune, it unbelievable. Sure once I hear it I can't help but think my ears are going to actually bleed due to it being the zillionth I've heard in in the past week, I still find myself singing it. It wouldn't be Christmas without it. Simple.
Number 4) Christmas Lights
A less festive and more dismal song. Granted it won't raises any spirits, but it beautiful. Coldplay does their natural thing and performs a truly glorious song. It makes you get lost in thought. The structure behind is lovely too. Upbeat parts, heart felt parts, classic parts. It's wonderful.
Number 3) merry Xmas
This is a song that brings back so many memories due to it being the song we always sung after we did our Christmas plays in primary school. It makes me happy and gives me a warm feeling remembering the amazing times I had every year at primary. It's my prime example of Christmas.
Number 2) A Spaceman came traveling
I legitimately cry 3/5 times this comes on. It's so pretty and lovely and I could never say anything bad about it. One of my friends preformed this in a choir and recorded it for people to buy for a charity. He was heart broken with it and said it sound horrible, when I heard him; I cried. fandom and I gave him a standing ovation (which I'm not sure you're allowed to do in church. Oops).
Number 1) Carol of the Bells
My actual favourite Christmas song, it is my ultimate tune to stick on. Granted when I do everyone is really confused, but oh my god; I love it. The choir boys voice are Saint like and it gives me goosebumps when they go over the "merry merry merry merry Christmas" because it's so Christmassy and amazing! It reminds me of all sort of Christmas films but mostly Harry Potter because of that one part. It's just spectacular.
And thus that concludes my list. I hope you enjoyed something a bit different! Also, I'm experimenting with adding images to my posts to spice up my layout, I hope you like it.
So what's your favourite Christmas song? Is there any that you despise? Tell me below!
Take care.
