Normally it’s Oh Holy Night but this year it was my four year old singing “Let it Go” from Frozen.

"Christmas Memories" - Frank Sinatra, especially the line

"Shining faces,
of all the children,
who now have children
of their own..."

I always tear up, remembering how quickly time passes in the grand scheme of things.

I also love the song by Nancy Sinatra called "The Most Lonely Time of Year."

John Denver singing with the Muppets - reminds me of my childhood and several songs off the album are lovely.
Also, “Let it Be” any time of year.

Hallelujah - Cloverton version
Once in Royal David’s City

O Holy Night
The Holly and the Ivy

I’m not very religious but this song gets me every time.

This song makes me cry every time I hear it. It's especially bad if I hear it sung in person!

When my DS was a newborn, that song made me ugly cry. It still makes me tear up.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and I’ll Be Home for Christmas get me, too.

I'll be Home for Christmas - I think of the terrified teenagers in the war and their moms far away.

Silent Night, i actively try to get away and avoid it because it brings up too much sadness. Its not the lyrics but events it's connected to.

Wintersong - Sarah Mclachlan

Oh Holy Night for traditional songs
Christmas Through Your Eyes - Gloria Estefan for contemporary songs

O Come All Ye Faithful

This - Judy Garland version. The song is so wistful. A bit melancholy. But beautiful - I love it.
