Org's Favorite Christmas Songs That Are Not...

The Temptations' - "Silent Night" or Donnie Hathaway's - "This Christmas". Here are a couple of my favorites....

I know this first song isn't technically written as a Christmas Song but it has been adopted as such through the years for it's wintertime imagery in its lyrics.

Here's a live performance:

Here's the studio version:

Urugh! lol

Thanks for the reply guys! I'm diggin all of these....

Although The Temptations and Donnie's songs are indeed Christmas classics, I've been eager to hear something else, regardless of genre. Oh, I can't forget the newly minted R&B Classic "Let It Snow" by Boyz II Men. I swear I hear that song everywhere right about now. Geesh!

Thanks again!
