the eagles please come home for christmas
Year after year I have people come in my store or call the 1-800-KARAOKE line asking me what is the most popular Christmas Karaoke Song. Of course that is open to debate and subject to one’s personal viewpoint but, putting the traditional Christmas Songs aside, I’ve come up with at least a top ten list, not necessarily listed in order.
1. White Christmas (This is borderline traditional but since it is attributed to an artist, Bing Crosby, I’ve included in the top ten)
2. Blue Christmas (Once again borderline traditional but the most popular Elvis Christmas Karaoke Song)
3. Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree (The original Brenda Lee version featured her high, nasally voice but thank goodness for Karaoke you can add whatever voice that you have been gifted with)
4. Santa Baby (the versions by Madonna and Eartha Kitt are similar but Madonna’s is a little more updated in the requests that she is asking from Santa)
5. Please Come Home For Christmas (there are karaoke versions available from Ricky Van Shelton, Willie Nelson, and Bon Jovi but the most popular is still the original from the Eagles)
6. Grown Up Christmas List (this song is by Amy Grant and to tell you the truth I don’t recall ever hearing it but I get requests for it every year)
7. Where Are You Christmas (by Faith Hill, another song that I personally cannot recall but is consistently requested)
8. Jingle Bell Rock (a politically safe song as Christmas or any other holiday is not mentioned within the song. This song can be considered a ‘seasonal’ song instead of a Christmas Song; there are many versions available but the original from Bobby Helms is still the most popular)
9. Mary Did You Know (another surprise request, at least for me, that comes in consistently in the past few years; it could be that since it is a duet that people like the idea of singing this, like ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’)
10. Feliz Navidad (very popular due to it’s catchy tune and bilingual appeal)
Well I know that it really is impossible to try to find the best Christmas Song; I don’t even celebrate Christmas. If you are looking to buy a karaoke disc that has the aforementioned top ten I don’t have one. However I have a karaoke disc that has eight of the ten that I listed. This disc is new this year and will have a total of 18 songs; the songs on my top ten that are not included are ‘White Christmas’ and ‘Feliz Navidad’. However it will include ‘Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer’ (does anyone really sing that song) and Christmas Songs from Mariah Carey, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and more.
