Thank you for reminding me of this song. The first time I heard it was at my oldest kid's preschool holiday concert. It was a showstopper performed by 3 year olds.
It was also a popular one for school performances back when I was a kid. I have the Mitch Miller & The Gang version in my holiday playlist which is so much fun. I may or may not go into sing-a-long mode when it comes on!
It really depends on my mood more subdued or more amped up and for me the artist can make all the difference
Subdued
Little Drummer Boy but the old version the one from the stop motion film by the same name
Silver Bells by Kenny G
That's Christmas to Me by Pentatonix
Let it Be Christmas- Alan Jackson
The Christmas Song- Nat King Cole
What Child is This? (First Noel Prelude) by Francesca Battistelli; this one reminds me of the mashup song of Pachelbel Meets U2 by Jon Schmidt which became the song I walked down the stairs to my husband (I didn't walk up an aisle but rather down stairs) at our wedding. The What Child is This/First Noel blends the two songs in a good transition just like the Pachelbel Meets U2 song does.
More amped up
Sleigh Ride by Ferrante & Teicher
Multiple songs by Trans-Siberian Orchestra
Cathedral Heart by Kelley Jakle and Adam Mayfield (it's from a movie called Christmas Harmony)
Snow Waltz, Carol of the Bells and I Saw Three Ships- Lindsey Stirling
A mix between the two moods-
White Christmas by The Drifters (instantly reminds me of The Santa Clause)
Ring Christmas Bells by Ray Conniff/Singers
O Holy Night by Mariah Carey
There's more I listen to but the above is pretty consistent and hard for me to call out a fav
