Christmas may look different this year, but we can all still appreciate the joy that is music. Christmas Carols make the winter that much better and can help us all get in the holiday spirit, despite the struggles that this year has brought everyone.
There are a ton of different Christmas Carols that are timeless classics, but thankfully, there are also different versions of each classic that changes with the times. I researched and collected all of them into one list to get the holiday season started off in modern style.
1. All I Want for Christmas Is You by Fifth Harmony
Mariah Carey's Christmas hit is timeless on its own, but the notes and melody of this rendition is perfect to add to anyone's updated Christmas playlist.
2. Baby It's Cold Outside by Idina Menzel & Michael Bublé
An adorable music video and a timeless and modern duet, what more could anybody ask for?
3. God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen by Pentatonix

His Christmas album is my all-time favorite modern Christmas album, and this rendition truly makes me feel warm inside even on the coldest winter days.
5. Winter Wonderland / Here Comes Santa Claus by Snoop Dogg x Anna Kendrick
TikTok has been taking this song by storm and there even is a TikTok dance to this collaboration that we all needed.
