We're only a couple of days away from Christmas!
It's that beautiful time of year again - there's twinkling colourful lights everywhere, shiny ornaments on the tree, and tinsel stuck on every surface possible. While the pandemic still has us celebrating the festive season in strange ways – be it via Zoom or over a long-distance phone call, we're still grateful for the celebrations we do get to have. And, what's a party without some music?
From sweet ballads from MAMAMOO's Wheein and Ailee to festive dance anthems from Yellow Claw, Weird Genius, and Reikko, here's a list of songs to ring the holiday season with!
'Fall In Love At Christmas' - Mariah Carey, Khalid, Kirk Franklin
BANDWAGON TV
What's the festive season without Mariah Carey?
While we're probably going to play the classic 'All I Want For Christmas' all holiday long but the Queen of Christmas has returned with a new offering. Joined by Khalid and Kirk Franklin, 'Fall In Love At Christmas' with a quintessentially festive track. Cosy, warm, and full of love, the track is perfect to play as you're surrounded by your loved ones.
'Sweet Dreams' - TXT
It's the season of giving and TXT has a special gift for their fans all around the world. As a surprise, the five-member group have unveiled a festive R&B carol titled 'Sweet Dreams'. Wanting to spread some warmth and comfort this winter, TXT give thanks to MOAs (TXT fans) with their original track that were written and composed by the members themselves.
'Christmas EveL' - Stray Kids
If your idea of a Christmas party is an epic dance party then 'Christmas EveL' might be a track you want to consider playing. Driven by trap beats against the backdrop of jingle bells, this rap-heavy single is bound to add little more than plain ol' festive cheer.
Also, Felix's "Feliz Navidad Feliz Navidad / I can feel the evil coming but Felix, never bad" is one of the best lyrics we've heard this Christmas.
'Ligaya' - SB19
SB19 are spreading the festive cheer with their holiday single 'Ligaya'. Written by Pablo, the track reminds us of the most important thing this Christmas season – spending time with the people you love.
'Merry Midnight' - Numcha and Kuo of Sunset Rollercoaster
The holiday season is also a time of reflecting and celebrating the year that has passed, all while being with the people you love. 'Merry Midnight' is the track exactly for that. Serving as a gift from Thai pop act Numcha and Sunset Rollercoaster's Kuo, the sweet ballad is a great reminder to appreciate those around you.
'Christmas Song' - ena mori
As much as Christmas is a time of love and thankfulness, it's also a season of stress and frustration with all the hectic Christmas shopping and the entire family together. So to try and ease our inevitable Grinch-like attitude, ena mori is here with a cheery 'Christmas Song'.
'You're My Christmas' - SEVENTEEN's DK
As a special gift, DK unveiled this comforting holiday ballad. Dedicated to CARATs (SEVENTEEN fans), 'You're My Christmas' was co-written and co-composed by the SEVENTEEN member himself.
'Walk With Me' - Youngjae
There's nothing more heartwarming than a sweet Christmas love song and with his angelic voice and soothing sound, GOT7's Youngjae has delivered the perfect one.
'Hush Dear Santa' - Yellow Claw, Weird Genius, Reikko
You can feel the holiday spirit right from the moment you hit play on Yellow Claw's 'Hush Dear Santa'. Made in collaboration with Indonesian acts Weird Genius and Reikko, the jingle bell-heavy song is everything you need to reel in that festive spirit.
'Solo Christmas' - Wheein & Ailee
If there was any musical match in heaven, it would be MAMAMOO's Wheein and Ailee. With voices that blend so beautifully together, the pair have gifted us with one of the most mesmerising Christmas ballads we've heard this year.
'Christmas Is A Person' - Miss Lou, Josh Yeoh, Krysta Joy
To continue the moody festive spirit, we have 'Christmas Is A Person' by Miss Lou, Josh Yeoh, and Krysta Joy. If you're missing someone this holiday season, may this sweet ballad ease your heart and soul.
'I Wanna Spend My Holidays With You' - Ysanygo
We're all missing someone this holiday season, whether it's friends we haven't seen in years or family members that live all across the world. In an attempt to fill that void, Ysanygo released their first-ever holiday single 'I Wanna Spend My Holidays With You'.
