Looking to spice up my holiday playlist, so what's yours?

I guess mine would be Springsteen's "Merry Christmas Baby" from my favorite Christmas album, the first A Very Special Christmas.

I like "I believe in Father Christmas".

There's a good song from Smashing Pumpkins

And the Run DMC tune they used in Die Hard

Anne Lenox's version of Winter Wonderland is my favorite.

 

Just to name a few.

I only consider it "rockin'" because it's Bono singing it, but Baby Please Come Home is one of my favorite Christmas songs.

I'm blanking on the tune sung by Bryan Adams right now...but I dig that one too.

Anything from Bing Crosby or Perry Como.

O Tannenbaum by the Vince Guaraldi Trio is my jam.  Look out if that comes on after the egg nog kicks in.

Christmas time is here by Steve Vai...he's a musical mastermind. Also The Christmas song by Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds is a pretty groovy tune, not your ordinary Christmas jingle.

If you like hard rock style, I think Stryper did an entire Christmas CD.  I remember Winter Wonderland and Little Drummer Boy.  But, I am sure there were many others.  Stryper had great vocals and quality instrumentals.  I remember loaning out my CD a long time ago and never seeing it again.
