For me, any song from A Charlie Brown Christmas means that the holidays are upon us!
What songs means Christmas or the holidays to you?
-
It's kind of terrible, but...the chipmunks Christmas reminds me of when I was little. It makes me feel like a kid again when I hear ANY of the chipmunks Christmas songs.

In general, Christmas songs and movies get me excited. My dad instilled this in us when we were young, and the tradition has carried on. I just watched three Christmas movies with my dad this past weekend!
But, nothing says "Christmas is coming" to me like the Eat N Park Star commercial. It kills me. I get ridiculously excited every time I see it.

@Mrs. Jump Rope: Wow never seen that before! Is that a regional thing?
-
@dagret: Ditto!! I love the Chipmunks Christmas.

I cry when I hear the Hallelujah Chorus for the first time of the year. Then I can no longer hold back from playing Christmas music for real, even if it's not Thanksgiving yet.

@mrbee: Yes, Eat n Park is a chain restaurant here in Pittsburgh! I don't think they're anywhere else...

We always listened to the Charlie Brown Christmas album when we were kids! It played on loop all Christmas day in our home lol.
I'm not sure if I have a specific song that makes me instantly think Christmas though... I was part of a choir since I was 10 years old, so we always practice new choral pieces every year. I guess Christmas choral music feels the most like "Christmas is coming" to me.

@Mrs. Jump Rope: ooh, me too. Love that commercial. They closed our Eat N Parks around here a few years ago and the thing that upset me the most is that i wouldn't see the commercials at the holidays anymore.
-
@Smurfette: I bought the CD, and it makes me angry that the songs aren't in the same order as the tape!
-
Hanson's version of "Merry Christmas, Baby" an "Christmas Means to Me". Basically anything on Hanson's Christmas album.

Silent Night was been my favorite since I was a kid, any version and I start smiling, and The First Noel, is an adult favorite. And <holds head in shame> I love Last Christmas by Wham I sing it so loud
