So, having listened to all songs, I like Blue Christmas and I don't recognize the voice so it may very well be that annoying Irish guy I don't like (whose voice apparently I DO like...)

Santa Baby is good, but I agree, Naya could have stepped up the sexiness, etc. I like the Kylie Minogue version myself. I'm not thrilled w' Little Drummer Boy but that's one of my favorite all-time Christmas songs EVER, and thus he's competing in the big time, so that's probably not a fair comparison. Like if they did White Christmas, for example...

Santa Claus is Coming to Town just makes me want Springsteen to suddenly appear out of nowhere. (But I grew up in New Jersey...)

Let It Snow is adorable but way, way too fast (for my personal taste). And Kurt is my God, so that's saying something. And I already mentioned that Mercedes owned All I Want For Christmas.

Do They Know It's Christmas is cute. Never heard of Christmas Wrapping or River before...

Wish they had re-released BICO b'c it remains my favorite...

Kylie did a version of Santa Baby? Oh I must hear that... Kylie is like... Aphrodite. XD (<---totally did that on purpose)

I'm sure you can get it thru iTunes but I'm pretty sure there was some sort of Glee contest or something (b'c of the huge hiatus) and they included Christmas songs to choose from (last year) which ones did you like best, and I'm not 100% sure, but pretty certain that I downloaded it from that.

So if you wanted to search Christmas music from 12 months back, you'd probably find it in the community...

(This is b'c I don't know how to take my music and make it available...) I am like a Luddite with access to a computer.

I'm excited to listen to these all after class. I've heard Let It Snow, though, and I really love it. I like how fast and upbeat it is. I'm really interested in Mercedes singing All I Want For Christmas- love that song and love her.

I'd kill for a version of Sleigh Ride tbh It's my favorite Christmas song ever.

I can't stand Let It Snow which makes me so mad because I wanted to add it to my ultimate Christmas playlist, but no, they ruined it. It is WAYYYY too fast, you can barely hear the amazingness of the boys' voices, and I hate that skat part, it's taking up too much room. No, this song is epic fail. IMO

Someone on tumblr slowed it down which apparently sounds better - hopefully someone will drop a link in here.

Christmas Music Masterpost

It's other places as well, but there's a link in this masterpost to the slowed-down version of Let It Snow.

Enjoy!!

Also replace the skat and riffs with actual lyrics, because then I can sing along too, which is the only reason I listen to music.

Amber killed All I Want For Christmas Is You just like I knew she would.

Lea should never sing Joni Mitchell. Just no.

And since they were mining all my favorite 80s Xmas songs I'm surprised they didn't have Kevin do Run-DMC's Christmas In Hollis

[boysinperil]

That would have been awesome. I love Kevin's rapping always.

Do You Hear What I Hear... What I hear is hands down the best song on the album.

I *want* to like Let It Snow so bad, but I just don't. I love their voices on it, but the pacing of the song ruins it for me. Same thing with Santa Baby. It's one of my favorite Christmas songs EVER but it feels like they were standing behind her with a whip yelling "SPEED IT UPPPP!"

I wish we could have had Rory and Santana doing Fairytale Of New York by The Pogues. It would be beautiful and hilarious.
