Christmas commemorates the birth of the Savior of the world, and musicians have been writing songs to celebrate it for more than 1500 years. While The Music List loves to enjoy songs about snow, Santa, bells, and Christmas trees, it is the birth of the Christ child that is worth celebrating and honoring. In this episode, the siblings bring tidings of great joy along with a competitive spirit as they debate the best songs specifically relating to the nativity scene. There are hymns as well as contemporary songs. Join the siblings as they tackle more than a millennium's worth of music to make the definitive list of the best nativity songs of all time.

The Music List hopes you haven't already finished your Christmas shopping, because we have some recommendations for the music lovers in your life. In this special public service episode, the siblings outline not the normal nine, but a grand total of fifteen amazing albums that make incredible gifts. Vinyl records have made a comeback for the ages, and more and more people are starting collections. Check out this episode of The Music List and listen to samples of the choices. The biggest qualification for this year's list? They have to be "no skip" albums. The album has to be a great listen from start to finish!
