I like Chritmas and everything, but are there any good christmas songs? As in newly made recent songs. Any and every christmas album I have ever heard has been bad (i.e. Jessica Simpson, N'sync... tec.)Maybe I am barking up the wrong tree for good music, I personally would enjoy a good, new christmas song that is not sung by a teenie bopper.

The following:
Bob Seger - Little Drummer Boy
Bon Jovi - Bells will be ringing
The Eagles - Please come home for christmas
Jimmy Eat World - Last Christmas (although the original 'WHAM' is always better)
Coldplay - Have yourself a merry little christmas (I do not particularly like them, but it is a good version)
U2 - Do they know it's christmas (this is a 'feed the world' song)
John Lennon - So this is christmas
Bruce Springsteen - Santa Claus is comming to town
Home alone soundtrack - Jingle bell rock
Temptations - Rudolph the red nose riendeer
Brenda Lee - Rocking around the christmas tree
In the style of 'oldies' Bing Crosby, Andy Williams, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and Nat King Cole are always good

In my opinion, the original Band Aid is the best. DO THEY KNOW IT'S CHRISTMAS TIIIIME ^^ And - how cheesy it might be - I just lurrrve All I Want For Christmas by Mariah Carey. It's just a Christmas Classic. ^^

I have never heard a good Christmas song that was made recently. I have also never heard any of those new ones listed so maybe I should check them out. I usually stick to Nat King Cole for Christmas music and maybe some Bing Crosby here and there. Dont forget Alvin and the Chipmunks

Bright Eyes really made a Christmas album?
Very Mariah Carey. That proves you really have made it big. When you make a Christmas album.
My favorite Christmas song would be the Beach Boys "Little Saint Nick"

yeah the Beach Boys rock, that's a good christmas song. And honestly I have the Mariah Carey christmas cd and Christina Agulera christmas cd, they're very good indeed. But I'm very open minded about music so i can really listen to them without feeling teeny-boperish.
I love music, no strings attached.

I just found this and I havent heard it but some of you might find it interesting.
http://www.morecowbell.net/archives/2004/12/07/119/Its called "have yourself a merry Indie Christmas" or something along those lines and you have to download it. I am downloading it now so it could be terrible for all I know.

I downloaded it and havent heard the whole thing but I think what it comes down to is if you like those bands or not. I think its pretty good but some people think Jessica Simpson has a good Christmas Album so what can I say?
It takes a long time to download because the download program works kind of like napster with the whole peer-to-peer thing. I just left my computer and did something else.
