The Trans-Siberian orchestra version of Carol of the bells is one of the single greatest goddamn things ever made in the history of humanity and if you disagree I'll punch your dad in the cock
I agree that it's the best, but I put a very close second of Mr. Mackey's Carol of the bells from the south Park Christmas special. Ding Dong Mkay
ooo I also want to know
The silent version of "Last christmas". Way better than the original.
Maybe if I work in the mall again for another 10 years and listen to this version over and over again it’ll wipe the memory of the other version from my mind. That would be the real Christmas miracle.

My favorite version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen is the version by The Quiggles which appears on the Nitronic Rush soundtrack.
Mannheim Steamroller's Up Above the Northern Lights
It's been my favorite Christmas time song forever.
it's hard to compete with A Chtistmas Gift for You from Phil Spector, which has to me the definitive versions of a lot of the classics plus one of the all-time greatest tunes period in "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)." if you like the kind of cheese that sprays out of a can, the Brian Setzer Orchestra does fun rockabilly takes on the classics, and Wizzard's originals "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday" and the other one who's name i can't remember are great. for the nerds in the room, Urizen's "Autonomy" carries on the TSO spirit with a heavy heaping of chiptune, the soundtrack fo the Christmas NiGHTS into Dreams... demo has awesome renditions of the classics in 90s VGM fashion, and look up the demo song on the Yamaha SHS-10 keytar when you get a chance
O holy night is my favourite old Christmas song and this is a banging version of it.

THANK YOU! You’re one of the very few in this thread who actually understood what I was looking for. I thought I explained it pretty well, but clearly I was mistaken. Sadly, I don’t care for O Holy Night myself. But I hope it brings you some joy this holiday season. Cheers!

"First Noel" is an album by Ibrahim Maalouf that has some great jazz versions of well known Christmas music.
Heavy Metal band Starkill made a cover of All I Want For Christmas and it's the only Xmas song I listen unironically https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jz8LpZglKfw
