Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Pretty much anything by Mannheim Steamroller or TSO.

Another favorite of mine is The Christmas Song by Amy Grant.

I enjoy Christmas carols. Despite Christmas carols being a genre of mainly covers, the songs need to have an ideal arrangement. A lot of modern day covers are horrible. I have found the linked below are very good.

Needless to link, Nat King Cole's "A Christmas Song" is unparalleled. My absolute favorite. There is also Andy Williams' "Most Wonderful Time..." and "Hark! The Herald..."

These arrangements below are some I find to be the best of their kind (at least the first two). Some of you may not enjoy them, which is fine. These are just three of many I enjoy.

Perry Como | Silver Bells
The Ray Conniff Singers | Jingle Bells
U2 | I Believe in Father Christmas*

I feel most Christmas carol covers these days lack the festive and/or spiritual feel than in the past. The Brian Setzer Orchestra Crazy Christmas album is good. It is very jazzy. I recommend it.

*The original of this track was very popular in my household. I actually stumbled upon U2's cover in a Starbucks from a holiday special CD the store was selling back in 2008. I actually enjoyed it more than then original because I believed it felt more Christmas-y. I am not really into U2 covers, but I enjoy this one.
Thanks! I shall be adding all these to the list.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

I'll definitely be checking them out in the morning, thanks.
