What Is Your Favorite Christmas Song? This Is What You Said

What, if any, is your favorite Christmas song? That's the question asked recently on social media sites. Again, I received a lot of answers. I broke it out into three categories, rock, country, and general.

My favorite in the rock category is 'Carol of the Bells' by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. In the country category, I'd have to say 'I'll Be Home For Christmas' by Rascal Flatts. For the general category, I'd have to say 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas' by the Carpenters.

Some people really get into listening to a lot of Christmas music, while others just tolerate a few and some don't want to hear any. And I saw a few comments with just that type of response. Others said it was hard to choose just one favorite Christmas song.

I received a lot more country titles than anything else. Here are some of the responses I received in the rock, country, and general categories:
