susankenny Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Well, I always enjoy Mercy Crowns (just kidding). Mercy Me & Casting Crowns are played on the radio a lot, and I seriously do enjoy their Christmas versions. I'd like to buy one or both of their CD's.

caitlinsmom Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 My family LOVES the Bare Naked Ladies Christmas CD. The mix of songs are funny and interesting. The kids fly off the wall when Jingle Bells comes on. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyLittleWonders Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 My family LOVES the Bare Naked Ladies Christmas CD. The mix of songs are funny and interesting. The kids fly off the wall when Jingle Bells comes on. :) Here too! For me it's a toss up between BareNaked Ladies and Johnny Mathis (for sentimental reasons).

3littlekeets Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Jimmy Buffett and James Taylor both have great Christmas albums -- but then, I listen to both of those artists year-round, too :lol: OHHHH, and Harry Connick, Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mama Geek Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 This Christmas through the years has a lot of great traditional music. I am sure it can be found for less than what Amazon is advertising. http://www.amazon.com/Christmas-Through-Years-Box-Set/dp/B000FUL36K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladydusk Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Vaughan Williams' Hodie Sixpence None The Richer Christmas CD Sara Groves' Christmas CD Fernando Ortega is my favorite, the Sara Groves one feels similar, but maybe more fun.

The are wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careful, this album might cause arms raised, hands clapping , foot tapping all out rejoicing. For a more quietly contemplative sound, I love Lorena Mckennitt. http://www.amazon.com/Midwinter-Nights-Dream-Loreena-McKennitt/dp/B001G9LVGG/ref=sr_1_3?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1292807504&sr=1-3 Both albums are nonstop around here except for dh Neil Diamond albums.
