Upbeat Christmas Songs for Your Next Christmas Gathering

When I was tasked to come up with a Christmas playlist for our church Christmas party, I discovered that a lot of Christmas music is actually pretty slow and not very upbeat. After scouring my music collection and buying some more music online, I came up with this playlist which is suitable for a lively Christmas party.

It features both old and new artists, from Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra to contemporary Christan artist Jeremy Riddle. Note, this was for a church Christmas party so it does feature religious songs that mention Jesus. There are no songs about Santa Claus or reindeer, though there are some secular holiday songs in there.

The running time is about an hour and a half.

Hope you enjoy it! Let me know what you think! If you know of another Christmas song that should go on this list, let me know in the comments! – Brian
