With Black Friday madness upon us, and thoughts of Christmas on many minds, I’ll start off Part 2 of my Holiday Songs with one of my all-time favorites by Trans-Siberian Orchestra – “Christmas Eve/ Sarajevo.” Creating an upbeat version of “Carol of the Bells” and “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” was a stroke of genius that has made this a holiday classic for me.

I love TSO’s music and many of my fave Christmas songs are on their albums. But there are so many holiday songs I love that narrowing down to twenty-seven is going to be tough. I hope you enjoy my list!
