    Christmas Songs5 stars

    Calling itself "the most comprehensive Christmas song resource on the web," Christmas Songs includes Christmas music trivia (with six interactive quizzes), links to sites with free Christmas sheet music, lots of printable song lyrics, and lists of top-selling Christmas CDs. "Jingle Bells is the most popular of all Christmas songs, but did you know it hasn't always been associated with Christmas? The song was written by James Lord Pierpont and was copyrighted on September 16, 1857 with the title 'One Horse Open Sleigh.'"



    Pandora: Christmas5 stars

    With 60 million listeners, Pandora's Christmas radio station is one of its most popular. The "Christmas [station] rims your yuletide with an extensive mix of traditional holiday favorites. Listen here to play those timeless Christmas carols spanning the decades (and genres) from a variety of artists."

    Spotify: Christmas Classics5 stars

    You will need to create a free account to listen to Spotify (and there will be ads) but on the plus side, you will find a lot of holiday playlists to choose from, and lyrics are included. This playlist is Holiday Classics and includes artists such as Nat King Cole, Dean Martin and Judy Garland. To find more Christmas playlists, use the search function on the vertical menu.

    Xmas Melody4 stars

    XmasMelody is a streaming Christmas radio station that broadcasts 24/7. To listen in, click on one of the Listen Xmas Station links in the right-hand column. You can choose between Winamp player, RealOne player or Windows Media in your choice of two speeds: 128kpbs (CD quality) or 32kpbs (for slower connections.) The website itself is rather simple. In addition to the listen links, there is a countdown to Christmas, and a scrolling message bar, where you can submit holiday greetings to be broadcast.

    Xmas Fun: Christmas Songs4 stars

    Scroll through this alphabetic list of Christmas songs from Xmas Fun for lyrics and selected YouTube videos. The videos are a nice touch, especially for little kids. If you want to print the lyrics, there is a link to a simplified printable version of each page in the upper right-hand corner. There is also a "Hide Video" button just below the video that can be used to create a less-cluttered page that still includes all the navigation menus.
