I know I mentioned this in some thread a while ago about random songs, but this is my favorite Christmas Song/Version.
It is Whiteheart's version of Little Drummer Boy.

Give it a shot....

Don't pay attention to the video portion....it is something some dude threw together on youtube. I don't beleive there was an actual video shot.

I liked the rendition of the song. yeah, the slide show on youtube looked like somebody just took pictures of a bunch of christmas cards.

Thanks for the '80s flashback. That had to have been released around the time of Don't Wait for the Movie. Thanks for the reset.

I just put together a CD of some songs I thought were the best renditions ever...

If you're looking for Little Drummer Boy (non-80s version), check out Jars of Clay's version.

(By the way, if you're looking for an X-Mas album, check out Chris Tomlin's "Glory in the Highest". Amazing. Probably the best versions of 'O Come All Ye Faithful', 'Angels we Have Heard on High' and 'Hark! The Herald Angels Sing')

For the record: Best version of the best Christmas song: Mariah Carey singing "O, Holy Night".

no way. It's gotta be Josh Groban's. As embarrassed as I am to say this, I heard a really good version on the radio last year, and to my dismay it tuned out to be Clay Aiken.

I've got three different covers of "Baby It's Cold Outside" but this one is probably my favorite right now.

But my new favorite Christmas song has got to be this one:

Has it been just the last ten years or so that O Holy Night has become the quintessential Christmas song that everyone with a microphone has to sing, or has this always been the case? I love the song, but it's just getting overdone.
