I'm not a fan of holiday music. I think I have a John Tesh CD that I inherited from my MIL and a Celtic Christmas CD I put that on the Bose at XMAS time.

I have quite a few favorites but if I had to pick, Sinatra and Johnny Mathis would be at the top of the list.

       Like many on this thread...my favorites singers are those oldies but goodies....Johnny M, Bing C, Perry C, Dean M, Doris D.   I really do like most holiday music...vocals or insturmentals.  Favorite song...Silent Night...always brings tears to my eyes!!!

3 generations in my family have enjoyed Mitch Miller’s Holiday Sing Along With Mitch.

Its Christmas,when we play “Must be Santa”. I never hear any Mitch Miller on the radio just pandora. Every year I ask our local radio station to play his music but they never do.

Re: Favorite holiday music

[ Edited ]

I like the older traditional Christmas songs thats what my mom played on our old record player, not my generation but I love the music:

 

Bing Crosby

Perry Como

Johnny Mathis

Ella Fitzgerald 

Andy Williams

Nat King Cole

Judy Garland

Rosemary Clooney

 

And the more modern Michael Buble, Josh Groban, Henry Connick Jr....Earth Kitt's version of Santa Baby......

Also instrumentals of the old carols....

 

Sadly, most stations play 4 songs, Mariah Carey-All I Want For Christmas Is You, Wham-This Christmas, Paul McCartney-Wonderful Christmas time...and Im so sick of these songs....I prefer my own collection...LOL!!!

Animals are reliable, full of love, true in their affections, grateful. Difficult standards for people to live up to.”

@Spurt   Every Christmas morning, we play Andy Williams and Johnny Mathis Christmas songs, and other artist's Christmas CDs throughout the day.
