Menzel’s entry in holiday songs is a nice mix of standards “It’s The Most Wonderful Time of the Year”, duets “I’ve Got My Love To Keep Me Warm” with Tony winner and all-around icon Billy Porter, a sweet personal Chanukah blessing featuring her son that makes us kvell “Walker’s 3rd Hanukkah” and the inclusion of a decidedly non-traditional Christmas song that well, should be one, “Seasons of Love”.
There are 525,600 reasons to love Idina Menzel’s voice, and you’ll find it’s everywhere during this season with Frozen 2and her first Christmas LP both out now. Idina Menzel: Christmas: A Season of Love The themes of compassion (“Praying for Time”), faith (“Faith”), taking care of yourself and your friends (“Heal the Pain”), and gifts (“Everything She Wants”) really do make this feel like what the Christmas season is all about. Ok, this one is a perhaps a bit of a reach because technically there’s only one (albeit one spectacularly tremendous Christmas song amongst the 14 tracks but hear us out, it deserves to be on this list. Sit back with the fire going, a cozy throw from the sofa and some eggnog as she takes on classics old and new - did you know that “Do You Want To Build A Snowman” is now a Christmas song? WHAM! and George Michael: Last Christmas Soundtrack
Lea Michele: Christmas in the Cityįill your heart with glee (see what we did there?) with Michele’s third studio album, and her first for the holidays. Both the album and the show feature Musgraves’ beautiful country twang on its own and paired with megastars James Corden (“Let It Snow”) and Camila Cabello (“Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree,” but it’s her duets with critically acclaimed artists such as Leon Bridges “Present Without A Bow,” Lana Del Ray “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” and Troye Sivan “Glittery” that really make this an album you’ll come back to year after year.
She’s got so much Christmas spirit that it can’t be contained within just one album - this is her second holiday-themed album which made its way into her Amazon Prime special that is kitschy, schmaltzy, and an utter delight. Stand-out tracks: ‘Monster Mash’, ‘Sinister Stomp’ & ‘Bellas’ Bash’.Kacey Musgraves The Kacey Musgraves Christmas Show

An expressive performance on music TV show, American Bandstand, funny lyrics and a No.1 slot in the US cemented the track as a classic spooky tune, inspiring an extensive Halloween parody album.

Why it’s one of the best: After originally releasing ‘Monster Mash’ as a Halloween parody of the popular dance trends like The Twist, ‘The Original Monster Mash’ was released, featuring further spin-offs and parodies.
