Dec 24, 2021 · By Lizzie Davis. From Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker to Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas, these are all the elements that have to be in a Christmas classic. A touch of bitters – some minor chords. But it’s Christmas, the season of joy, we hear you cry. And caramel tastes even better with a sprinkling of salt.
- Bing Crosby – White Christmas. Simply a behemoth of a festive anthem, “White Christmas” is the daddy of all Christmas songs. Penned by Irving Berlin, it has been recorded countless times, but the definitive take is still Bing Crosby’s 1942 Decca recording – widely believed to the world’s best-selling single of all time, with estimated sales of over 50 million copies.
- Wham! – Last Christmas. 1984 was a year for iconic ballads, and two of them – Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s “The Power Of Love” and the high-profile charity song “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”
- Frank Sinatra – Jingle Bells. “Jingle Bells” may now be synonymous with Christmas, but it was written by James Lord Pierpont in 1857 and intended for Thanksgiving season in the US.
- The Pogues & Kirsty MacColl – Fairytale Of New York. About as bittersweet a Christmas song as it’s possible to imagine, The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl’s Celtic folk-flavored “Fairytale Of New York” was once banned by the BBC for its raw language (“You’re a bum, you’re a punk, you’re an old slut on junk”), but it’s now the most-played Christmas song of the 21st century.

- The Nutcracker – Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. The Nutcracker is something of a Christmas tradition. The festive tale of a toy soldier that comes to life has endured over the years and been subject to some radical retellings.
- Troika – Sergei Prokofiev. Taken from his Lieutenant Kijé, Prokofiev’s festive sleigh-ride of a piece is not only a mainstay in Christmas concerts around the world, but on hit radio stations too.
- Carol Symphony – Victor Hely-Hutchinson. Written in 1927, Victor Hely-Hutchinson’s festive shindig of a piece takes the listener on a tour of some of the best-loved Christmas carols including ‘O Come All Ye Faithful’, ‘God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen’ and ‘The First Noël’.
- L’Enfance du Christ – Hector Berlioz. Berlioz wrote the oratorio L’Enfance du Christ from 1854. It’s a huge work, which took four years to compose, and depicts not just the childhood of Christ but also Herod’s mass murder of infants in Judea, which led to the fleeing of Mary, Joseph and Jesus.
- The Pogues: Fairytale Of New York (1987) With its Celtic bounce and uplifting chorus, Fairytale Of New York will forever head our list of the best Christmas songs.
- Wham! : Last Christmas (1984) While Christmas is a time for merriment and cheer, there’s usually a little heartbreak – and, for Wham! fans, it didn’t get more heartbreaking than learning of George Michael’s death on Christmas Day in 2016.
- Mariah Carey: All I Want For Christmas Is You (1994) If Michael Bublé is the modern-day king of Christmas music, Mariah Carey is undoubtedly the queen.
- John And Yoko/Plastic Ono Band: Happy Xmas (War Is Over) (1971) As a writer of truly universal anthems, of course John Lennon turned out a Christmas hit.
