Most times I find newer Christmas songs leave much to be desired. Like to see what Christmas songs you like that are less than 50 years old?

I hate rock/pop/jazz Christmas songs, but for some reason I always liked hearing that one!

Christmas Heart 2:46

[Deaf Smith]

“There’s something stuck up the chimney and we don’t know what it is”

[MightyMama]

“Mary, Did You Know” by...pretty much anybody, though my favorite cover is Kathy Mattea. “No Eye Had Seen” by Michael W. Smith with help from Amy Grant, or possibly the other way around. :) And Michael W. Smith’s arrangement of “Gloria In Excelsis” if that counts.
