As the holiday season has been rapidly approaching in full force, your Secret Santa and holiday parties or cookie-baking and hot cocoa sipping days just could not be complete without the perfect holiday playlist. Of course the classics are mandatory to add, but here are some unique Christmas songs to spice up your cozy days in or festive nights out for the upcoming holiday season.

1. "The Christmas Waltz" - Kristin Chenoweth

While waltzing around the kitchen waiting for your cookies to get out of the oven, this is a perfect song to sing and dance to around your oven while periodically checking your gingerbread men.

"Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" – Pentatonix

For Nutcracker lovers far and wide, this modern take on the ballet classic is perfect to add if you're looking for some spice to a cult-favorite holiday song.

"Christmas Eve" – Justin Bieber

Curl up with some cocoa on the couch with your date for Christmas Eve, whether it be your S.O. or a heaping plate of cookies (for me, it's the latter). Maybe you'll just end up fantasizing and wishing that JB would be your date this Christmas Eve.

"This Christmas" – Chris Brown

Nothing will complement your playlist like this Christmas funk classic from the film This Christmas, featuring Chris Brown and Idris Elba.

"My Favorite Things" – Kelly Clarkson

A twist on the classic sung by Julie Andrews, Kelly Clarkson adds a jazzy edge to the familiar tune from The Sound of Music.

"Grown-Up Christmas List" – Jordan Smith

A more sentimental rendition of a classic pack's more emotion about the big wishes upon the world that an adult wishes for.

"Pennies from Heaven" – Louis Prima

Although "Pennies from Heaven" isn't even a Christmas song, the familiar tune can be found in one of the most iconic scenes of Elf, which gives the song every reason to be added to your list. Nothing would be better than dancing around in your fuzzy socks to this jazzy tune, just like Buddy the Elf.

"Only at Christmas Time" – Sufjan Stevens

Featured on hit television series This is Us, this acoustic carol is sure to be a new favorite.

"The Trouble With Love Is" – Kelly Clarkson

"White Christmas" – Otis Redding

These two songs can be found in the British Christmas classic, Love Actually – the perfect holiday movie for any millennial. With iconic actors spanning generations such as Kiera Knightley and Liam Neeson, (and many others we may have never known called England their home country), some holiday songs in the film are sure to become instant favorites.

"Winter Things" – Ariana Grande

For people who don’t have the ability to spend Christmas time somewhere chilly where bundling up is necessary, this song is for you. Ariana Grande sings about the struggle of trying to celebrate the holiday season when the weather doesn't match your desire for it to be snowing outside.

"Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" – Michael Buble

What would be a good Christmas cover without a little jazzy twist?

"Christmas Lights" - Coldplay

With a familiar Coldplay sound, this addition to your playlist will be the perfect dash of the band's alternative rock that you need in the holiday season.

"Deck the Rooftop" – Glee Cast

In true Glee fashion, what would be Christmas without a mega-mashup?

"Santa's Coming For Us" - Sia

Sure to be a new pop favorite, Sia comes to us with a new Christmas album sure to keep you and your friends jamming for years to come.
