Love it or loath it, it's kind of unavoidable at this time of year so it's always nice to discover something new.
Personally I'm always on the look out for something just a little bit different for my Christmas listening and luckily there is heaps to choose from, whether it's a new version of an old favourite or a new-new song that you end up playing on constant replay,
Though if you do you may just drive those around you to throw the stereo across the room or take to it with a sledgehammer,
Christmas Was Better In The 80's / The Futureheads
No surprise really that I would like something like this.
I Saw Three Ships / Sting
I adore this version so much. It's one of those songs that makes you feel all warm and happy.
Mary, Did You Know? / Pentatonix
I very new discovery for me, this is another old song given a new twist and is just beautiful.
Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas / Jensen Ackles
You just knew that I had to include this. After all it's not every day that one of the actors from one of my favourite shows releases a song. Even better it's actually really good. Totally swoony worthy...
Text Me Merry Christmas / Straight No Chaser & Kristen Bell
You've got to have a least one slightly goofy Christmas song and this one seems to be it for this year. That its gone viral on YouTube probably comes as no surprise.
Also check out some of Christmas CD's that we have got such as Now That's What I Call Christmas which features a realm of favourite Christmas rock, pop and ballad songs as well as Christmas at Downton Abbey and Holiday Wishes by Idina Menzel
