The 100 Best Christmas Songs of All Time According to Billboard Staff - Page 2

"There's a reason that listeners seem to get more impatient every year for the Christmas music season to start: Nothing else feels quite like it. The things that make Christmas songs great are most of the same things that make pop great in general: emotional connection, universal relatability, unshakeable catchiness. People have been singing about Christmas almost as long as it's been celebrated. Christmas music has a wavelength entirely its own, shared by an overwhelming majority of its most recognizable classics: a sublime yearning that's at once profoundly saddening and deeply comforting. It evokes a visceral, nearly oppressive sentimentality, one fortified and strengthened by a lifetime's worth of associated holiday memories — personal, familial, romantic, nostalgic. Here are Billboard's staff picks for the 100 greatest Christmas songs of all time — songs that, try as folks might, no amount of commercial overplay or corporate co-opting can seem to ruin." - billboard.com
