I like most Christmas songs equally.
It's more fun to complain. Personally, I think Little Drummer Boy is weird because who would want to play drums next to a baby, and I think Carol of the Bells sounds scary. The melody to Carol of the Bells sounds scary.
HARK, HOW YOU RUN RUN FOR YOUR LIFE DOWN ALLEYWAYS THROUGH THE DARK NIGHT
FOR THERE'S A MURDERER BEHIND YOU WAITING FOR YOU TO TIRE OUT RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN
OOPS, A WRONG TURN THERE HE IS NOW JUMPING RIGHT OUT
That's what it sounds like to me.
But favorites? Well, I think a list of favorites changes all the time, but as of right now
1. O Holy Night 2. O Come O Come Emmanuel 3. Adeste Fideles 4. Fairytale of New York 5. Snoopy vs. The Red Baron (Snoopy's Christmas)

The only Peanuts-related Christmas Carol's I know are the ones that are on the Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack. You know? The ones by the Vince Guaraldi Trio?

Yes, but Snoopy's Christmas isn't in a Peanuts movie and was based on real events. There really was a Christmas truce during World War I. My goodness, the 100th anniversary is in just two years.

I think I'll update my list. I'd have to say my favorite Christmas songs are from best to least, (more than 5, can't help it): -Little Drummer Boy, (I'd have to say because the Rankin/Bass video, [you know, the 'clay'-like animated video that was made by the same group as "A Year Without a Santa Claus"], was my favorite when I was younger and it still is, though I haven't seen it in around two years) -Hark! The Herald Angels Sing -When Christmas Comes to Town, (from the Polar Express; I love playing the vocal notes on piano) -Believe, (again from Polar Express) -Heat Miser, (in other words the Miser Brother Song from "A Yr W/out a Santa Claus", [apparently that's the song name]. Mainly bcuz of the rhthym, and I just LOVE Snow Miser and his humor ) -When Love is Gone, (it's not necessarily a Christmas carol but it was in A Muppets' Christmas Carol, [the DVD of it at least], so I'd count it, and due to how emotional the song truly is, (as shown by Rizzo following the song), it's my favorite from that film. -Put one Foot in Front of the Other, (from the Rankin/Bass "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town video), bcuz it's about the one song from the from the film that has a good rhythm, is not repeated, (the Toymaker-related songs), nor a common one, (the title song). Also, I just love Topper, that little penguin. I just find his honk/sound a little humorous so I can't help but smile. -I'll Be Home for Christmas, (Bing Crosby form) Okay, to be honest, aside from The Little Drummer Boy I'm not sure where those other songs go in my top.....say...12 or 25 list, (puns intended, if you get them). I was almost not gonna include the "Put 1 Foot in front of the Other" nor the "Miser Brother Song" but I figured since I included The Little Drummer Boy, and I specifically meant the Rankin & Bass one, y not include the others? But then again, who needs to listen to certain Christmas songs when you can play the vocal notes to some of them, (like Little Drummer Boy and Hark! the Herald Angels Sing), on the Piano?! Now, if I were to say my favorite Christmas Carols they'd be, unranked, (except for the last which, aside from some of the songs, I disliked a lot): -"Muppets' Christmas Carol" -Mickey's Christmas Carol -Disney's latest Christmas Carol, (the 3D animated one with Jim Carrey, where *spoiler spoiler spoiler*, [this one has a few interesting differences from the others] and for once, a recent Christmas Carol film ACTUALLY includes Mrs. Dilber, Scrooge's housemaid essentially) -All Dogs Go To Heaven Christmas Carol
