GL's favorite Christmas songs!

We asked GL staffers a tough question before heading off for the holidays: What’s your favorite Christmas song? Here’s what they said…
 

“‘Winter's Night by the Weepies.’ A mellow, indie Christmas-y tune that is also so sweet and romantically cute, it's the musical equivalent of a rainbow made out of candy canes. Makes me wish for the days of driving around the town with my boyfriend Will super late on Christmas Eve, sipping hot chocolate out of a thermos and looking at all the fabulously decorated houses.”—Karen Bokram, founding editor/publisher

 

“Stevie Wonder’s ‘One Little Christmas Tree’. Stevie Wonder always reminds me of my dad.”—Patty O’Donnell, senior national advertising sales director

 

“I love listening to ‘The Christmas Shoes’ by NewSong. It makes me tear up every single time I hear it.”—Patricia McNamara, associate editor

 

“My all-time fave Christmas song is ‘Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy’ from Tchaikovsky's The Nutcraker Suite. Every Christmas, my Dad and I go see the Nutcracker ballet together—a tradition that's been going on for over 20 years!”—Jessica D’Argenio, fashion and beauty assistant

 

"My favorite Christmas song is 'Christmas Canon’ by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Doesn't ring a bell? Check it out on YouTube...it's the most beautiful song. Brings a tear to my eye eyery time.”—Keri Wilson, sales and marketing manager

 

“I love ‘Christmas Wrapping’ by The Waitresses—it’s about a wacky, year-long missed connection with a boy. Sure, the classics are great (‘White Christmas,’ anyone?) and Love Actually made me fall for ‘All I want for Christmas Is You’ but, at the end of the day, I’m more likely to slip in the snow than wind up with a cutie under the mistletoe—and I like a holiday anthem that keeps it real. Spoiler alert: The couple in the song end up bonding over forgotten cranberries. See? It’s not totally grinch-y.”—Katie Abbondanza, senior editor

 

“‘Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays’ by 'N Sync. I've been singing along to this fast paced Holiday tune for over ten years now. I love the boys' vocals and how uplifting the song is!”—Caitlin Farley, intern
