J Music: The Best Christmas Playlist Since 2002… When I Made It

image
  1. Who Would Imagine a King – Whitney Houston
  2. The Christmas Song – Nat King Cole & Natalie Cole
  3. Silent Night – Mariah Carey
  4. Let It Snow – Boyz II Men
  5. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer – Alvin & the Chipmunks
  6. O, Holy Night – Mariah Carey
  7. I’ll Be Home for Christmas – Whitney Houston**
  8. O, Come All Ye Faithful – Luther Vandross
  9. Walking in a Winter Wonderland – Ashanti**
  10. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing/Gloria (In Excelsis Deo)- Mariah Carey 
  11. Silver Bells – The Temptations 
  12. Away in a Manger – Gladys Knight & the Pips 
  13. All I Want for Christmas Is You – Mariah Carey 
  14. Seasons of Love – Rent 

**In reflection, I would probably swap these two out. I like to remember Whitney at her best, and this isn’t it. And including Ashanti amongst these legends was just disrespectful.

If I burned a new CD today, I would add:

  • Mary, Did You Know – CeeLo Green
  • What Christmas Means To Me – Stevie Wonder
  • Santa Clause is Coming to Town – Jackson 5 (amongst a few others)
  • This Christmas – Chris Brown

Happy Holidays everyone!!
