[2026] Christmas songs in Western music: from new hits to hall-of-fame classics (71–80)
This ChristmasChris Brown
One of the artists who energized the new soul movement of the 1970s, Donny Hathaway.
His “This Christmas” is a classic and is known as a quintessential Christmas soul song.
This version is sung by Chris Brown, whose catchy vocals and high-level dance performance—evocative of Michael Jackson—leave a strong impression.
With a stronger R&B arrangement than the original, it’s also a great pick for parties.
Santa’s Coming For UsSia
This number, packed with the joy of Christmas, is a track from Sia’s first Christmas album, Everyday Is Christmas, released in October 2017.
Its catchy melody and her distinctive vocals capture listeners’ hearts.
The lyrics are filled with the season’s delights, such as warm moments with family and friends and decorating the Christmas tree.
The music video features celebrities including Kristen Bell and portrays a 1950s-style family Christmas.
Peaking at No.
29 on the ARIA Singles Chart, this song is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy the Christmas spirit.
Christmas C’mon feat. Becky GLindsey Stirling
This is a track notable for its crisp, punchy string sound.
The vocalist is Becky G—she has a very cute look! The song expresses the happiness of spending Christmas with a lover and reflects on the journey they’ve shared so far.
Underneath the TreeKelly Clarkson
A classic Christmas song whose sparkling sleigh-bell sound evokes the holiday season.
Its lively rhythm is the quintessential, catchy style! It’s a perfect pick for anyone who wants to get into the Christmas mood.
Interestingly, the song actually sings about spending Christmas alone, and the phrase “as long as I have you…” stands out in the lyrics.
It’s an encouraging breakup song, in a sense.
If you want to create that atmosphere of a Christmas spent with everyone, this might be the ideal choice!
