5. “Mistletoe” by Justin Bieber

Admit it: 2015 is the year we all became Beliebers. This single isn’t from Purpose (his latest album, and his best work to date), so you can just listen to “Love Yourself” right after.

6. “Carol of the Bells” by Pentatonix

This jaw-dropping a cappela arrangement should be a holiday staple.

7. “Baby It’s Cold Outside” by Idina Menzel and Michael Bublé

Well, not exactly, but we still love this song just the same. Plus, this video is 100 percent adorable!

8. “Mary Did You Know” by Jordan Smith

We totally love this soulful melody from Jordan Smith from the The Voice US. This tindig-balahibo performance surely takes us back to the reason for this season.

We totally love Stevie Wonder’s take on this Christmas classic.
