Adir Hu, a Passover song. I think it's beautiful.

Adir Hu is great! Though my favorite melody for it is the Carlebach one.

My absolute favorite Passover song is Vayehi Ba'Chatzi Halayla (and it was at midnight). Gives me chills every time.

Mary, Did You Know? is pretty much the only Christmas song I will listen to any time it comes up on shuffle regardless of the season.

They're all Christmas songs and I don't want to imagine winter, it's too sunny out

My favorite Christmas song is Greensleeves. <3 So many that I like though...although it is weird to think about them in May.

Christmas at Ground Zero, by Weird Al.

And of course, you can't go wrong with Monster Mash.

I always liked 'It Came Upon a Midnight Clear'

"Christmas Wrapping" by the Waitresses. There is nothing about that song that I don't like. It might have something to do with growing up in the '80s.

"The Holy City" is not, if you listen to the words, really a Christmas song, but it is sung around Christmas a lot.
Here is my favourite performer of it at Christmas Carols:

More often than not he sings the middle verse, which I like, because leaving that out makes it incomplete.

"O Holy Night" has a line in the chorus "Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!" that when well-sung, gives me shivers.
Here's a nice version, maybe not quite shivers-inducing, but pleasant:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5n6X9sUznI

"Angels We have Heard On High" is another nice one - I love the whole "Gloria" chorus.
Here's the Pentatonix version, which is pretty cool:

Also, their "Little Drummer Boy is great too:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJ_MGWio-vc
And their "Carol of the Bells":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSUFzC6_fp8

On that last one, "The Carol of the Bells" is also a really good one, especially done by a good choir.
Here's a version from an interesting source, the :Home Alone soundtrack:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elAtcHU0iCU

"Do You Hear What I Hear?" is another good one.
Here's another Australian Carols By Candlelight video:

And last, a slightly obscure song from a movie, "The Closing Of The Year", featured in the movie "Toys", staring Robin Williams:
