Advent Day 24 | Ultimate Christmas Songs

Happy Christmas Eve one and all!

Now, as it's Christmas Eve and we're all in full Christmas spirit. So we thought what better thing to do on Christmas eve than get properly festive with some of our all time favourite Christmas tunes. Then you can all go off and make great Christmas playlists, just in the nick of time for tomorrow! Ahhh, it's finally here!!!

1. Sam Smith's rendition of  'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas' may be a newish Christmas song, but my god, is it beautiful. Sam Smith is a fairly new revelation to man, but he's an extrordinary global talent. If he isn't big in your country, check him out on the youtube waves. Once you're hooked there is no going back.

2. Chris Rea's 'Driving Home for Christmas' is just a golden oldie classic. It combines all those feelings of excitement and anticipation of coming home for the Christmas holidays. It's super catchy and gets you in the right frame of mind for the holidays. Yipeeee

3. 'Do They Know It's Christmas' hammers home the message of the mixed world in which we live, Christmas is not a time for joy for everyone. The 3 diferent versions by various Band Aid teams each give an updated but still grounding message. The most recent Band Aid team includes the likes of One Direction, Ed Sheeran and Rita Ora. That in itself should be enough to give it a play or 10.

4. 'All I Want For Christmas' ooooooohhh babbbyyyy. Sheer classic of a Christmas song, and we have nothing else to say. Apart from play it over and over, it's only Christmas once a year.

5. Leona Lewis, 'One More Sleep' is a marmite kinda song. I personally don't have much time for it, but others of us here at LLB have quite a deep rooted love for the song, hence it being on the list. Play at your peril, it's very catchy.

6. What a great one to finish on. 'Last Christmas' is such a pinacle of Christmas songs, it's just an absolute belter. And so Christmasy, deffo have it on repeat tomorrow!

Well, that concludes all our days of advent before Christmas Day. We've enjoyed counting down to Christmas with you lot so much, we hope you've enjoyed it too. We hope you all have an amazing Christmas, and we'll see you at the weekend for some LLB loving.

Love always crazy Christmas cats,
