It's Christmastime so crack out those Christmas tunes!
Throughout the years so many Christmas-themed songs have been recorded, whether they're originals or remakes.
That got us thinking about which one is the ultimate Christmas song. There are so many classics especially the ones that you hear blasting throughout the various stores when you go shopping for presents at the moment. We can debate which songs are the best all day, but we managed to narrow down the options to just 16 choices.
Below we will kick off Round 1 of the Enstars Readers' Choice Best Christmas Song Tournament 2015.
"All I Want For Christmas Is You" - Mariah Carey vs. "Santa Baby" - Eartha Kitt
Mariah Carey is the queen of Christmas music since this song has achieved so much since 1994. It's a Christmas standard!
"Santa Baby" is a cheeky tune that has been remade time and time again over the years, but Eartha Kitt's original version from 1953 is definitely on top.

"Mistletoe" - Justin Bieber vs. "I Found an Angel" - Teddy Geiger
When Justin Bieber released this Christmas track as the first single from his Christmas album Under the Mistletoe in 2011 Beliebers went wild. It's a laidback Christmas jam.
Back in 2006 way before Bieber commanded the charts as a solo male artist, Teddy Geiger did that and his musical Christmas effort was an EP called Snow Blankets the Night. "I Found an Angel" is beautiful and timeless.

"Please Come Home for Christmas" - Charles Brown vs. "Silent Night" - Bing Crosby
Charles Brown's bluesy Christmas track is definitely a classic! So many acts since its release in 1960 have remade it.
"Silent Night" is an extremely popular Christmas carol. Bing Crosby's version is definitely one of the most popular versions in existence. It has even acquired some accolades.

"The Christmas Song (Merry Christmas To You)" - Nat King Cole vs. "Winter Wonderland" - Elvis Presley
This song is a classic too! Nat King Cole is the original artist that recorded this Christmas song back in 1946. You can never go wrong with originals!
"Winter Wonderland" is probably one of the most popular Christmas-themed songs, but the holiday of Christmas is actually never mentioned like in some of the other songs we've mentioned so far. Elvis Presley's rockabilly version is definitely a good one.

"Wrapped Up For Christmas" - Forever In Your Mind vs. "At Christmas" - Hanson
Boy band Forever In Your Mind recently released their Christmas single, which is super poppy and festive. We can't get enough of it! How about you?
In the late nineties Hanson dominated the charts and the band of brothers released a Christmas album in 1997 called Snowed In, which features track "At Christmas" that happens to be an original composition. It's a lovely Christmas tune!
