ORIGINAL Christmas Songs

I get tired of artists constantly redoing the same old tired Christmas songs.  I am on a quest to not just find redone classics.  I was some original song!

So, please feel free to post Christmas songs here as suggestions.  Please be sure, though, that they are different or at least by the original artist.  Thanks!

I'm not really a fan of Christmas music.

I like it, but I like fun new songs instead of just hearing the same old things over and over.  Some artists do recreate old songs in a way that breathe new life into them, but most just do a traditional cover tune of whatever songs they do.  I want some songs that are unique that may not be well known either.

This is probably one of the main reasons I am not a big fan of Christmas music, I get tired of listening to all the same old songs getting rehashed.

I've rehashed them as I've had a hard time coming up with a good Christmas original.  Joshua's Creed has a redo of We Three Kings in the works for next year.  I say it rocks, but it's still rehashed.

I am working on an original Christmas song for next year.  Though the way the lyrics are coming out, it will probably be a slower tune but not sloth-like like Silent Night or White Christmas.

Occasionally I can get into some of them.  I actually like the version of "We Three Kings" that Warpriest (deathisgain) did a few years back.

I also actually really liked Kutlesses take on "Mary Did You Know"

But if i gotta hear another version of "White Christmas" by anybody I think I'm gonna puke.

"White Christmas"

Slow and sappy.  Takes too long to listen to.

See my post here for a few non-traditional ideas

While non-traditional, I am looking more for NEW songs that haven't been redone.  I am not really concerned with style.

The reason I directed you to my other post is because there are a few buried in there that are not redone or rehashed Christmas songs, which is what I meant by "non-traditional." Case in point: Rob Halford has three or four that are not your typical Christmas songs, and there are a smattering of original Christmas songs on A Very Metal Christmas. Granted, these are secular and metal or hard rock, but they meet the criteria you specified.

Here ya go

Hey, he gets what he asked for

My problem is that most of the original Christmas songs I really like have now become a new batch of over-covered standards.

I know you aren't really a fan, but there are these songs

Or you could go with

Or something different

I like this song...

Brad's whole Christmas album is really good.

All three of those are good entries!  However, the Brad Paisley song isn't an original song.  That's an old Buck Owens song.  My daddy had several LPs by Buck so I grew up with that song.


I like this song: 

And this!

And this!!!

For me it's hard to find original Christmas songs or different Christmas songs.

I know the ladies in SheDaisy!  When my dad lived in the Salt Lake City area, his house was next door to the Osborns.
