I'm sure this has been done before but this is now. I know lots of my fellow atheists still celebrate 'Christmas' or Hannukah in a secular way with their kids. We have family to dinner Christmas eve and other family over for stockings (w/ little gifts and goodies) and a traditional Christmas morning breakfast the next day. But I'm already playing holiday music.
In fact I have a collection of my favorites. It is all about nostalgia I suppose and emotional atmosphere. I have an instrumental version of this Jewish song, Bashanah, that I like better but can't find it on youtube.

But I have many more Christmas songs of course since I grew up in that culture. So naturally I have much more of that. This is one of the better contemporary adaptions I think. (Well, contemporary from my point of view admittedly.)

And here is another with an even more contemporary feel done acapella.

So what do you have? Looking for obscure pearls as well as fine old chestnuts here. Surprise me.
