Among the 17 tracks are Bing's "White Christmas," Elvis' "Blue Christmas," Nat's "The Christmas Song," Johnny's "Sleigh Ride," Eartha Kitt's "Santa Baby," Sarah MacLachlan's "Song for a Winter's Night" and, to go out on a note of heartbreak, Judy Garland's original of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas."
