Heavenly Hymns
Away In a Manger vs. Away In a Manger
What, there are TWO? Well, yes and no. Like many hymns, there is more than one "standard" tune for this text. Many consider the first the "U.S." version and the second the "British" version. Which is your favorite? (Yes, there is a "mash-up" of these two songs, and it is lovely.)
Choral Carols
Little Drummer Boy vs. This Little Babe
The drummer boy is little, the babe is little. The songs are nothing alike. "Little Drummer Boy" has the advantage of being well-known and oft recorded. "This Little Babe" is maybe less well-known, but certainly musically superior. Listen to both and vote for your favorite.

I'll Be Home for Christmas vs. All I Want for Christmas is You
A sentimental favorite vs. a new classic. Tough battle...it all depends on the demographics here! Someone could do an awesome mash-up and call it "All I Want for Christmas is Home." (Maybe not.)
Kids Kristmas
Silver Bells vs. Winter Wonderland
Silvery! Wintery! Epic battle!
Enjoy the pretty lights. (People do weird things with their Christmas lights...)
