For me, I like the older Christian-themed carols to the newer "santa-y" carols. My all-time favorite Christmas Carol is Good Christian Men Rejoice. There's this great Symphonic version that I have which is heavy with percussion and brass. It's got such a great sound to it. _________________ Support me on Patreon!

I'm fond of that one too.
Do you prefer the more traditional sound, or the metal-ish version the Trans-Siberian Orchestra did? _________________

Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer can suck it. I HATE Christmas music, at least the crappy "PC versions" that I have to hear at my workplace every year. When you hear Rudolph twice in the span of ten minutes by two different artists, you really want to shoot yourself in the head. :/ I'm more fond of the traditional stuff myself, but god I hate the OMG WE CAN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH GOD IN THE STOOOOOORES bullshit music I have to listen to.
...though oddly enough, I did hear Silent Night this year in my store. It was a nice change to the normal crap I have to hear. _________________

That is one song that sounds MORE AND MORE AMAZING the more people that are singing it. It has a pleasant bounce to it.
Carol of the Bells is also awesome. I always liked Hark! The Herald Angels Sing! growing up. Also, Up On The Housetop. _________________
