![[Official Video] Little Drummer Boy - Pentatonix](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/qJ_MGWio-vc/mqdefault.jpg)
Jingle bell rock, rockin around the Christmas tree...
At a Christmas party hop.
Isn't that technically modern not classic?
And band aid?
Christmas Fairy Tale in New York City, anyone?
I hear it enough times at work on the checkouts.
Everything you listed is on the Modern list-except Christmas Party Hop-Not on either list
also what about " Youre an mean one, Mr.Grinch" thats a classic. Who agrees
Not that "classic", it's not nearly as old as he majority of the songs on this list
I agree
Joey Vallejo 👍
I love that.
What about The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole. How the hell did that not make this list?!
Yeah and somehow little drummer boy was?
"It's the most wonderful time" is definitely the best
FaZe Temperrr I agree
FaZe Temperrr what about killing in the name
FaZe Temperrr z
No JINGLE BELL ROCK.
🎄❤️💚❄️⛄️🎅🏻🤶🏻
Where's the Carol of the Bells?! Come on Watchmojo!
You play these magical Christmas songs, but not the adaptations of the songs. Why would Lady Gaga be the reveal to White Christmas. She sounds awful.
Thank you.
Lady Gaga's version was actually really good =) I love how it's all jazzy and she has an amazing voice outside all the auto-tune you hear in her pop music but yeah the original by Bing will always be the best but they included covers to show how legendary & popular these Christmas songs are every year
Jeremy Dove Her version is unacceptable it is horrible.
She always sounds awful. Talentless hack.
morrius07 Agreed.
Not even a honorable mention for The Christmas Song or O Holy Night. The Christmas song tells a beautiful Christmas story and O Holy Night has beautiful lyrics and celebrates the night that Christ was born. Both are ICONIC
Silver Bells is one of my personal favorites, mostly because it's always reminded me of my grandpa. Wish I got to spend more than one Christmas with him...
I hate modern christmas songs, no christmas spirit at all. Trying to top classic songs and failing hard. I swear to god, in a few years, there will be dupstep christmas song and christmas spirit will forever be lost. Stop fucking making new songs, just play the old songs over and over, please
Eh...the new ones suck, yes, but I don't think we need to hear Santa Baby, that Wham song, or Rudolph the Red Nosed raindeer again and again and again.
Dubstep remix of the classic songs. XD Even Tiffany Alvord's cover of Jingle Bells is off. She tried to slow down a fast tempo Christmas song. That is very Starbucks album rack of her
look out grinch alert
I agree 100%, im tired of modern music ruing the spirit of the season and music in general. You can't really sense the heart in music these days.. It's too bad
John Hctib no you can find tons of great artist who put emotion into their work you just have to look for it
ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU?!?!?!
It's my favorite Christmas song but I feel that it is too new to be included in this list :(
Animecouplefan1 It's not new! I've heard covers of that song from the fifties
Miami Heatles I've heard covers from the fifties! But search that up, you might be right
it's more of a modern Christmas song since it was released only 20 years ago they are doing a modern Christmas songs list tomorrow so definitely that song will be on the list for sure but I agree even though it's only been 20 years since it was released it sure is a classic...this entire classic Christmas songs list only included Christmas songs that were mostly released between the 1800's to 1950's
Makkesirjulf Malmgertyrfäddur yeah it definitely wasn't released in the fifties as the song was co-written and produced by Mariah Carey & producer/songwriter Walter Afanasieff the man responsible for co-writing a lot of Mariah's big hits in the 90's =)
It's august but I have a urge to now download Christmas music and jam to it for people while driving around town
*while driving around town
3 more months and both of us aren't weird for listening christmas songs!
I have had Christmas carols in my head all day
44 more days until Christmas
Pumpkin! At The Disco (James Potter & Harley Quinn Are My Patronuses) that actually isn't that long tbh
WHERE IS THE CHRISTMAS SONG???!
Deck. The. Halls. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING WATCHMOJO? I know, we should be nicer this time of year, but get a grip! Also, 12 Days of Christmas was only a HM, while Little Freakin' Drummer Boy is on here? Come ON!
Its not WM that does this its the fans they choose what goes here. Check their website.
What number is this HM? I only have 01 and 04 for my team.
fans suggest the list dumbass
LOOK AT THEIR F***ING WEBSITE!
thetattooedyoshi I think its a secret HM try asking Oak.
I reckon any Christmas song could be the #1 Christmas song.
Its August and i cant wait for christmas. 😩😩🙃
Your missing one memes incoming
Grandma Got Ran Over by A Reindeer
For me Christmas Music gets played on the radio. On the night of Thanksgiving.
Same lol
we put up our tree on thanksgiving we stay up until like 4in the morning and play Christmas music
93.9 fm start playing Christmas music as early as Nov. 1st.
I'm a Christmas fool! 😞
J' MARIE Can't wait.
There are a lot of people that do that.
It's November and I have my Christmas tree up
It's that weird I just love Christmas soooo much not the presents getting with family and decorating I mean come on it's amazing🎄❄️🌨☃️⛄️
BoltsTrue#1Fan Bolt Me too!
BoltsTrue#1Fan Bolt haha I just hate Christmas commercials when it's not even Halloween
How did "The Christmas Song" not even get a shoutout? Easily one of the greatest Christmas songs of all time!!
Good list! Though I am little surprised that O' Holy Night wasn't on this list (or Carol of the Bells)
Merry Christmas, WatchMojo!
My thoughts exactly
I gotta say, Crosbys versions the best.
Anyone in November 2015 getting ready
Me!!!:D
me!!!
+Noah Sheikh meeeeeeeeeeeeee
Duhhhh........ I already painted my nails red and gold..... I don't have green
+kaylin Pearcy I was going to say um Christmas colors are red and green lol
NO, "I'll be Home For Christmas"? Now thats a true classic that really tugs at your heartstrings.
You know it hasnt even been halloween yet. what am i doing
Alexis Damico same
youre fine
Now it is.
silent night and joy to the world are my favorite Xmas songs by far
September 2016 omg I can't wait

Good list
The ultimate catholic Christmas song list lol
thepaystation *coughBaptistcough*
Karen Fahel a los la en. La te tfda a adhjlpo o 0oop90u9
These Christmas song focus on the real true meaning of Christmas. It's sad to hear a child say "Who's Jesus"
I listen to these songs during the summer because I'm edgy and Badass.
are you jingle bells because it looks like you go all the way
That is the best thing I've ever heard
CAROL OF THE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS, 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS....
Feliz Navidad is really fun to sing at Christmas, too
Your missing the greatest one of all time. Carol of the Bells preferably performed by the Trans Siberian Orchestra
Thank you! It's simply the best and is surely a classic.
Yes
I recommend the version sang by Libera, it's so beautiful
It deserves to be number one
It’s on the top ten modern Christmas songs video
Haven't watched it yet, but it's the most wonderful time of the year by Andy Williams should be number one.
Damn, only an honorable mention? Bullshit!
Nothing gives me a Christmas feeling like Nat King Cole's The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire). Anything with Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra works as well, it's all about the classic versions for me. New Christmas songs, or recent versions of old songs don't work for me at all.
Yep.
Nat King Cole like Bjn Crosby have what I call the Christmas voice it is a beautiful thing and chestnuts roasting on ipen fire is one of my all time favkirite Christmas songs.
Charlie brown piano too
ZeppelinBigFan agreed and I also get in the spirit when I hear Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree by Brenda Lee 😬
Something about Nat's rendition had me sob tears of happiness. Just the fact his voice sounded so welcoming, as if he wanted to have a good holiday with you, always got me. You can never replace the legends that were as good as him
let it snow is one of my favorites especially the Dean Martian version
Carol of the Bells is the Best Christmas Song!
The Pogues - Fairytale of new york?
I'm still wondering, why is Frosty smoking all the time?
The nicotine helps keeping him cold
I watched this during Christmas 2015, re-watched it again during Christmas 2016. Love it. Great video. Happy Holidays 2016!
Thank you for the little history lessons behind these great songs. It's March, yet now I want to bust out all my Christmas DVD's!
WHERE'S DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A SNOWMAN!?
Preparing for hate comments now
*Generic Hate Comment*
*Even more generic hate comment*
Tony Montana
*Generic comment questioning your intelligence*
Alex won....
😂😂😂😂😂😂
God rest ye merry gentlemen is a personal favorite of mine
Where's We wish you a merry christmas????
Im not Christian : But my fav Christmas Chorals are 'We three Kings', 'Go tell it on the mountains" and 'when a child is Born.' Not the most popular but I love them
silent night #1 anytime
Brace yourselves Halloween is over Christmas season is upon us !!!
Just because Halloween ended doesn't mean you immediately have to put up your tree. You still have at least a month and a half!
+Patience Palmer with all that's going on right now,I think we need a little more Christmas!
I think my favorite is Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas or Silent Night.
Where is "Carol of the Bells"?
I'm listening to this in october
Me 2✋😂
Kylee McBrayer same I need Christmas already
@@taylorsolano8899 f
Stop hating guys and just enjoy all Holiday songs :D

The top 10 Classic Christmas Songs that I recognize and enjoy listening to are Winter Wonderland, Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas, The Little Drummer Boy, Santa Claus Is Coming to Town, Jingle Bells, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, Silent Night, The Most Wonderful Time of the Year, The Twelve Days of Christmas, Joy to the World and White Christmas
The past few days, I've been kinda bummed out and not quite ready for the holidays. Watching this list lifted my spirits and officially got me in the Christmas Spirit again. Just wanted to let you guys know that. Thanks watchmojo.
Its November wooooooo its beginning to look alot like Christmas........
I love Christmas songs
Wasn't feeling the holiday spirit until I watched this video. Thanks WatchMojo for giving me my holiday mojo back!

Yeah same
Crosby is the Christmas master
I LUV CHRISTMAS SO MUCH

You know, this was probably one of the hardest lists you've had to write. Combining commercial songs AND carols! That was a toughie, and I think you got the list pretty spot on. Well done, and Merry Christmas :-)
Happy Christmas (war is over) - John Lennon??? Where was that song? HAnds down best chrstmas song ever!
All I want for Christmas is you

Last Christmas
Rockin around the Christmas tree
O Christmas tree
I wished "Your a Mean One Mr. Grinch" could be an honorable mention.
+Kalvin Goodlaxson I was from Asia and this is my first Christmas ever in America, also first time ever listening to that song everytime I play the radio xD. I wanted to find the name but couldn't because what I heard was "Mr.Green" lol... Thank you though.

There's something about Christmas music, it's just so beautiful and peaceful.
My personal favorite is is the most wonderful time of the year.
Great to listen during the holidays.
These are my songs on THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR
o holy night, hark the Herald angels sing, away in a manager, do you hear what I hear. joy to the world should be number one
Silent Night, Joy to the World, Jingle Bells either one of them would have been a fine number 1, I've never even heard of White Christmas.
Just you every body heard or it

Spazztic52 I can make a Mr. Hankey too. *farts* XD
O HOLY NIGHT
Christmas And Fall Are So Beautiful I Was A Rain Baby Cant Wait Till It's Christmas Or Fall To Watch Christmas Movies And Halloween Movies
Rosa Orozco Fall kind of sucks
Cool! Had no idea about the Maritime connection to "It's Beginning to Look A lot Like Christmas"!
Last Christmas?!?!
That is not a classic.
Kyle Gabrielson how fucked in the head are you
It would have been better to have two lists: One about popular songs and another for classic hymns.
"Hark the Herald Angels Sing" being left off the list is simply criminal.
These songs remind me of growing up and seeing all the stores decorated. Clinton, Iowa put up a huge Christmas display in front of the swimming pool building.
Christmas is always special, even in mid summer
My favourite Christmas song has got to be 'Jingle Bells' because it's catchy and it was the first Christmas song I've ever heard.
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. Oh what fun it is to ride on a one horse open sleigh.
There should be a list of songs that came from the Rankin/Bass Christmas specials: Snow/Heat Miser(YWASC), Misfits (Rudolph), You're a Mean One Mr.Grinch, Toy Maker to the King (Santa Claus is Coming to Town), etc
I’d love to see that
Let it snow. I love that song.
#10 is my top fave Christmas song ever!
#6 is my mom's favorite. And the version with David Bowie and Bing Crosby is also a fave of mine.
RIP David Bowie. It was just a little over a year since you left us. You will never be forgotten.
I'm watching this in August 2016 😑 tf is wrong with me omg
Same
me too
me 2 :c
IM NOT ALONE
Me to
No honorable mention for "You're a mean one Mr. Grinch"? Come on guys
Any time we’re stressed out in winter, my mom and I sing “It’s beginning to look a lot like fuck this!”
my favorite Christmas song of all time Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
Silent Night should be No. 1 o-o
How about a Top Ten Modern Christmas songs list?
I love Christmas 🎄 cus is my birthday 🎂 in Christmas
And Santa 🎅
Very good list, tough to do with so many great songs.
I had no idea Bruce Springsteen covered Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.My life is complete.
The Christmas Song, Nat King Cole should've been on here!
weed fr tho that is definitely my favorite Christmas song
Hell yeah
@avocado obrigado dominick the donkey should be here to
Grandma got ran over by a reindeer.
Love the humor in that song.
Edmund Alyn Jones that song sucks. It's as bad as the 12 days of Christmas and jingle bells.
Miss so many good songs all I want for Christmas is you, jingle Bell rock, rocking around the Christmas tree, last Christmas, Feliz Navidad, let it snow, and The Christmas song, have a merry Christmas
My favorite is Little Drummer Boy. It always gives me chills.
