The Top 5 Christmas Songs Of All Time – Rik’s Review [Video]

Band Aid was a British and Irish charity supergroup, founded in 1984 by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to raise money for famine relief in Ethiopia by releasing the record "Do They Know It's Christmas?" for the Christmas market that year. The single surpassed the hopes of the producers to become the Christmas number one on that release. The record was released on November 29, 1984, and went straight to No. 1 in the UK singles chart, outselling all the other records in the chart put together. It became the fastest- selling single of all time in the UK, selling a million copies in the first week alone. It stayed at No. 1 for five weeks, selling over three million copies and becoming easily the biggest-selling single of all time in the UK.

Justin Timberlake and the other guys in N'Sync know how to enjoy the holiday spirit, this video has it all...guest stars...children...presents...great special effects and great vocals. This is like Santa left your favorite present of all time...play this enough and you'll be hooked!

This is a classic from Rudolph when he made his television debut on NBC in 1964. It was a stop motion animated TV special of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer that became a popular hit in itself. This version was re-broadcast annually many times over the years, even after it was finally released on video and then DVD...and no holiday party is complete without it!

Madonna's cutesy pie version was recorded in the late 80s for a celebrity charity Christmas album. This song has been recorded by Marilyn Monroe to Britney Spears and has lasted decades...easily making it the sexiest holiday song of all time.

At the peak of her career in the mid-nineties, Mariah Carey released this holiday gem...It has now been played a billion times with no signs of going away...but face it, Mariah has it all ... great melody and hook...bells...tempo...doesn't it make you want to go play in the snow now?
