Post your favourite Christmas songs

I;m a big fan or Aaron Neville, he used to sing duet with Linda Ronstadt ..but Holy Night i my numero Uno favourite Christmas Hymn

Love this version...


My favorite too and that is one of so many great versions that have been done by so many wonderful artists. I can't read all of this article without hitting a pay wall but I am definitely curious who they think have done the best ten renditions of O Holy Night. Because it was the first one I remember hearing I think of Molly Watson's fondly.


But I'm also a fan of A cappella generally so got to include this one.

this is who they say is the number one version... I don't agree...
 

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht
Alles schläft; einsam wacht
Nur das traute hochheilige Paar.
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar,
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh!
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh!

On August 5, 2011, we visited the Chapel in Oberndorf in Austria where "Silent Night, Holy Night" was first performed in 1818
