All Great songs! Some of my all-time favorites

[allow that]

Mariah will have the #1 Christmas song every year for years to come. Deservingly so.

I HATE HATE HATE that Wham song, I've hated it since I was a little kid I can't believe it's still around!

Remixes have charted separately, but Adam Sandler is the only artist I remember seeing with three versions charting separately.
Some of these artists get way more Christmas airplay than normal airplay. Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Simple Plan are the only artists I found who are on the CHR-Pop chart also.

Billy Squier - Christmas Is The Time To Say I Love You (from 45)

This is a great song

[Crushcrushchris]

Trans Siberian's version of Carol of the Bells is probably my favorite all time Christmas song along with Feliz Navidad (Feliciano), This Christmas (Hathaway), and Christmas in Hollis (Run-DMC)

Where is Willa Ford? I'm positive I saw it with around 3 spins on a recent CHR/Pop chart.

Maybe Atlantic will ship out the entire "TRL Christmas CD" again, and Angela Via will get some spins.

She had 8 spins on the 12/12 update. The #50 song has 9, so she just missed out. Maybe next week.

Couldn't agree more - the song has only gotten better since '94. I actually consider it her signature song, next to Hero. Can't wait to hear the live renditions from her Christmas tour. I also think Joy To The World and her version of Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) are really good.

it is to bad tamyra gray's "silent night" and her duet with ruben studdard "have yourself a merry little christmas" is not on the list .i have not heard 2 more beautiful christmas recordings in my life.
