Christmas Music
Christmas is a time of giving, a time of loving and time for great music. Nearly every band and solo artist worth their salt has created or been part of a great Christmas song. Many artists have made their own Christmas albums, great artists like Elvis Presley and Reba McEntire, in fact Christmas albums are very big in the country music community.
In this lens I will show you some of the best Christmas songs ever and also some great Christmas songs by some great artists.
I hope you enjoy this lens and have a very Merry Christmas.
Band Aid - Do They Know Its Christmas
Band Aid (founded by Bob Geldoff and Midge Ure in 1984) was a band created to make a charity single for famine relief in Ethiopia.

A lens on Christmas songs just would not be complete without the King of Rock n Roll. Here he is performing his best known Christmas song 'Blue Christmas'.
