I need to add some more Christmas music to my iPod and rather than searching the iTunes store thought I'd ask you girls what your favorites are. Any must have albums or songs?
if your a big country fan. i suggest dixie chicks (theyre kinda outdated i know) but their old xmas albums are soo fun. and then reba of course. love her.
and if your looking for gospel.. like slow church gospel... then the gaither brothers.
My favorites are the "Now That's What I Call Christmas" CDs. I am pretty sure that there are 4 of them. They have a good variety of music on them, old and new, country, pop, whatever you could possibly want...
My other favorite is the Mitch Miller Sing Along. My favorite Christmas memories are when my mom would break this out every year and we would decorate the tree singing (badly) to this CD!
Warning
No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
Also, the one cd I really want this year is Dave Barnes' Christmas cd. I think it's called Very Merry Christmas. He has such a smooth voice and his music has a nice acoustic sound. Good stuff. Listen to the samples on iTunes!

The original Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas?
Elton John - Step Into Christmas
Kylie - Santa Baby
Wham - Last Christmas
We used to have a "Now" Christmas album - I can't remember all that's on it, but that's a few to be going on with.
ETA: I found a list from something very similar to our album here.
I love the Barenaked Ladies Christmas cd. I also grew up listening to the old Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton album, so it's a favorite.
If you like Sinatra/Dean Martin/Sammy Davis Jr. there's a great cd called Christmas with the Rat Pack.
