Wow That's Random! Christmas songs from places and people you might not expect
21
items Many of our most loved classic Christmas songs (at least those written in English) are in the public domain because they were written so long ago the copyright expired. Which explains why so many performers do Christmas albums even though they you ca...
My niece and her boyfriend introduced me to this song which even though the group hasn’t put out a song for half a decade, is included in a nearby amusement park’s light show place list. Very random and yet very very catchy.
The Ellas: Bakin' Cookies *Official Music Video*
This is the video this list was made for. Not in actuality, the Bakin' Cookies song started me off on this tangent. But this is a perfect example of what folks will do to and for a Christmas song, for no clear reason.
"Carol of the Bells" Shepherd Boomwhacker Style
I know the Hallelujah Chrous is technically Easter not Christmas but I'm thinking that I probably won't make an Easter list, and this number is both perfect and perfectly random.
Silent Monks Sing the Hallelujah Chorus
This is actually an explanation of the weird ways many Christmas carols came to be not the songs themselves. You'll never hear them the same again. And not just because they're sometimes sung by Chipmunks or barked by dogs.
Weird History of Christmas Carols - Music History Crash Course
SNL does some very very absurd things with Christmas songs. Almost NSFW here.
Santa Song - SNL
Yup it's just Blue Christmas, sung the Elvis way, except for it's Porky Pig. “no respect” says the description. None taken my friend, none taken.
porky pig's blue Christmas
100 percent this went a place I was not expecting!
Lonely Christmas - SNL
So much I don't understand here, but it made me LOL FR. NSFW if the title doesn't tip you off.
It's Too F**king Early For Christmas (Obscure 60s Soul)
The truth is, you could buy me lego sets (even the same ones) for year after year and I'd be happy. But still. The struggle here is real.
Bob Rivers - Didn't I Get This Last Year?
The Frosty song is quite a bit more enjoyable when it has someone singing “dip dipta dip” in between verses. 50s style. Or in this case, perhaps actually from the 50s?
Jan & Dean - "Frosty The Snowman"
Is this a parody? Or just…everyone (literally EVERY one) has a Christmas CashGrab Album?
R2-D2 We Wish You a Merry Christmas
An old (maybe even oldest) school parody that reminds us why most Christmas carols were written…capitalism!
Christmas Is Our Business
“mixed jingle bells with rebel yells and made history that night”
Leroy the redneck reindeer
This is a parody, but it really sounds like Eminem, voice-wise, and the lyrics sound like pre-recovery Eminem!
Eminem - Jingle Bells
It's a parody. But it's kind of not a parody, because it's more accurately portraying Abba than Abba does.
ABBA Christmas - SNL
At first glance this seems to be a celebration of drunkenness but instead it's a very specific anti drunk driving driving Christmas carol. I think everyone should add it into their spotify Christmas playlist for the subliminal “make sure you have a d...
Carol of the Bartenders
There's a comedy theory about how things are funny, then annoying then funny again and this SNL Christmas musical sketch goes the whole way.
The Christmas Socks - SNL
Patton Oswald talking about a Christmas song more disturbed than those discussed here. This includes a cute animation that definitely adds to the LOLs.
Patton Oswalt - Christmas Shoes
I'm not such a fan of redneck humor but man Jeff Foxworthy knows how to make money. He's inspiring me to write the 12 days of nonbinary ex nun comedian storyteller Christmas.
12 Redneck Days of Christmas by Jeff Foxworthy
This song inspired me to give hard to gift folks a regiftable gift. With the words “here. something you can regift.” It's a lovely thing to do!
The Christmas Candle (Emma Stone) - SNL
This is a perfect combination: daffy duck and no front teeth. Do ducks even have teeth?
