There
are plenty of amazing things about the holiday season. Spending time with
family, exchanging gifts, eating delicious food. As far as we’re concerned,
it’s all good stuff!
However,
we have to admit that our all-time fave thing about this time of year is
Christmas music. One local radio station starts playing holiday tunes before Thanksgiving, which is crazy, but
we still listen!
We
know the songs can be cheesy, and after a month of non-stop play, we may get tired
of them. But holiday music is such a fun and cheery way to catch the Christmas
spirit. So we looked around and found some of our fave holiday classics,
covered by today’s celebs!
“Christmas
(Baby Please Come Home)” – Michael Buble
It’s
no wonder this cover is already one of our faves for this year—Michael Buble’s
voice was made for smooth and silky Christmas tunes! Watch him rock out his
cover on The Voice.
“All I Want
For Christmas Is You” – Mariah Carey and Jimmy Fallon
So
this is sort of Mariah Carey covering herself, but we’ll let it slide. After
all, the instruments are so cool and unique, not to mention the cute little
kids who sing back-up.
“Jingle Bells”
– Cody Simpson
This
cover was originally made to play in Alli Simpson’s movie 12 Dogs of Christmas, but it definitely made our holiday playlist.
Nothing like spreading cheer with a cute Aussie.
“Sleigh Ride”
– Karmin
This
Youtube star duo put out this cover recently, and we are totally in love. Their
voices blend perfectly, and they infused the beat with a bit more hip-hop feel
to get us dancin’. Love it!
“Merry
Christmas, Baby” – Colbie Caillat and Brad Paisley
This
duo teamed up to cover an old classic, and we love how they created a totally
new vibe for the tune. This song is on Colbie’s new holiday album, Christmas in the Sand.
“Holiday
Mashup 2012” – IM5
To
wrap up our holiday cover list, we’ve got the new video from swoon-worthy boy
band IM5. They’ve mashed together all our favorites into one catchy tune, not
to mention the video is pretty hilarious.
