Michael Bublé: 7 of his best Christmas songs ☃️
Merry Christmas, Mr Bublé!
Christmas 2025 is here and Michael Bublé's Madame Tussauds waxwork has now been defrosted! So it's fair to say that when it comes to the festive season, there is nothing like a bit of Michael Bublé - AKA the King of Christmas - to get you feeling festive!
As the 'defrosting Bublé' memes fill our news feeds again, what better way to enter the festive season than taking a look through some of his top Christmas songs from over the years?! Here are our top Christmas hits from our favourite silky-smooth singer, to help you with those festive playlists...
1) 'Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)'
This uplifting classic was originally sung by Darlene Love in 1963, but Bublé's version has quickly become one of his most well-known festive hits.
2) 'It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas'
Perry Como covered this Meredith Wilson track in 1951, bringing it into the spotlight as one of the most successful Christmas songs of all time. And our favourite Canadian does a pretty good job of it, too! His version has been certified 4x Platinum by the BPI!
3) 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas'
Fun fact: In 2007, this song was ranked the third most-performed Christmas song of all time by ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors & Publishers)! As well as Michael's silky version of the track, Frank Sinatra and Sam Smith have also released successful covers.
4) 'White Christmas'
Forget the third most-performed Christmas song of all time – the Bing Crosby version of 'White Christmas' is the best-selling single OF ALL TIME. An estimated 50 million copies of the song have been sold worldwide, and it even got a Guinness World Record in 2012. Wowzers. Michael's beautiful version was released as a single with Shania Twain.
Michael's team also had a stunning animated music video made! Take a look below:
5) 'Santa Claus is Coming to Town'
This never gets old – and who would believe that 'Santa Claus Is Coming To Town' is one of the oldest festive tracks here, with the first recording taking place in October 1934! Michael's version went Platinum just before Christmas in 2024.
6) 'Cold December Night'
This beautiful Christmas song is a Bublé original, and one of our absolute favourites from the album. It was written with his longtime co-writer Alan Chang and producer Bob Rock, and cements Bublé's reputation as a songwriter, as well as a successful singer.
7) 'Holly Jolly Christmas'
Another classic, Michael's 'Holly Jolly Christmas' has become a staple for the festive season. The song was first released by Burl Ives back in 1964, before Michael gave it the Bublé touch in 2011. Michael's version of the song was certified 2x Platinum just before Christmas in 2023.
