Xaris posted:anyways the real answer is Carol of The Bells. the tempo and beats are hella sick and tis a timeless classic. versions that go all out with high energy and bass are bad rear end but any version is good: piano, orchestral, heavy metal, electric guitar, bardcore, wind instruments, you name it Radical 90s Wizard posted:this whole Bad Religion album rips thank you

the answer is apparently "All I Want for Christmas is You" by Mariah Carey, since it's back at #1 on the billboard chart, which it's done every year since 2019 and it's been on the top 25 since like 2012 lol just a juggarnaut of a christmas song, jesus

here's my previous analysis, reposted from an old thread: spent about 3 hours today on a drive listening to classic christmas songs and realized I don't really know anything about the main dudes from the Real Man Singer era that sang christmas songs Bing Crosby: as far as I can tell this is the baseline Real Man Singer Dean Martin: a little less deep, a little more swing. always seems to have a smile on his face Frank Sinatra: dean martin but instead of smiling he will kick your rear end and maybe your wife's rear end too. a bit of a bittersweet quality to his christmas songs as he seems to be a guy who has gone through some poo poo and is being wistful Perry Como: seems to be at baseline, no notes Johnny Mathis: sounds like bing crosby but if he was a small old man. has a nice warmth Tony Bennett: i think he came a bit later? basically frank sinatra if he turned a big dial labeled "vegas" about 3/4 of the way Burl Ives: johnny mathis but a cartoon character Nat King Cole: bing crosby but black maybe?

I usually don't like christmas music but it's a great song. it's a great song like not even as christmas music. I'm just amazed by like how insanely popular it is, there's no hope for any other songs.

I love me some Trans-Siberian Orchestra too, of course (and I really need to catch one of their shows someday before I die) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivlv4J5uiag is a great version of What Child of This, and the transition to a totally different song at about 2:48 just...okay, I am one of those old saps that can be moved to tears by pretty much any dramatic music, okay? I'm not ashamed to admit it, and the sort of combined desperation and hope the singer evokes here nails me every drat time. (sorry if this is too real for cspam no i'm not) Also O Come O Come Emmanuel has always been one of my favorite old hymns, and I really like this performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTuuN7YEj3Q
