For a serious Christmas song it would be Once in Royal David's City, or Silent Night. But who doesn't love Dominick the Donkey?
I've always been a sucker for O Holy Night, and if it's sung by Josh Groban, so much the better! And when I was a kid, we had a Christmas LP by a group called The Roger Wagner Chorale, called "Joy to the World" which was very popular for years, and I still love it. Also, the church choir I sing in is doing a piece this year called "The Work of Christmas", and the text is very beautiful: When the song of angels is stilled When the star in the sky is gone When the kings and princes are home When the shepherds are back with their flock The work of Christmas begins To find the lost, to heal the broken To feed the hungry, free the prisoners To rebuild nations, to bring peace among brothers To make music in the heart When the song of angels is stilled When the star in the sky is gone When the kings and princes are home When the shepherds are back with their flock The work of Christmas begins I love it.
Silent Night, almost any version, really like the version by Enya in Irish Gallic O Holy Night Mary did you know, Kathy Mattea version. oh heck, almost any Christmas song.....

- It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas - Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas - I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas
Yeah, this is always my answer as well. Although All I Want For Christmas Is You isn't too bad either, to be honest
Last Christmas - Glee cover, Glee makes some badass covers! There is plenty of other good Christmas songs tho.
This is hard because I love so many. In no particular order, here are a few of my favorites that come to mind: "The Christmas song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)" "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" (both the Judy Garland and Bing Crosby versions) "White Christmas" "Believe" (The Josh Groban song from the Polar Express) The instrumental version of "Carol of the Bells"
