Justin Bieber, Mariah Carey – All I Want For Christmas Is You (SuperFestive!) (Shazam Version)

Released in 1994, Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” is a towering Christmas classic, and the artist who achieved a collaboration with her on it was Justin Bieber.

The blend of Justin’s youthful voice and Mariah’s overwhelming vocal power made for a fresh collaboration between two big names.

It’s a holiday standard, but this beloved song was reborn as a male–female duet that lets you enjoy it with a different flavor.

Manic Street Preachers – Winterlovers

This is a track defined by a soothing melody that makes you forget the winter chill.

Manic Street Preachers’ wonderful vocals are easy on the ears and a pleasure to listen to.

It’s included on the album “Send Away the Tigers,” released in May 2007, and is positioned as the piece that concludes a series of songs themed around the seasons.

The work appeals for a “deep, truthful love” for Wales or the UK as a whole, and also touches on the “beauty of dead industries.” Listening to it with a lover can create a romantic atmosphere, and those aching feelings might gently warm.

Highly recommended if you want to warm your heart before the cold of winter sets in.

Fall in Love at ChristmasMariah Carey, Khalid, Kirk Franklin

Mariah Carey, Khalid, Kirk Franklin – Fall in Love at Christmas (Official Music Video)

When it comes to Mariah Carey’s winter love songs, All I Want for Christmas Is You is overwhelmingly dominant, but her 2021 release Fall in Love at Christmas is also a must-check masterpiece as a winter love song of the 2020s! Released in 2021, Fall in Love at Christmas features young R&B star Khalid and Kirk Franklin, known for his unique style that fuses street sensibilities with gospel.

The result is a mature love song where you can savor the calm, understated vocals of Mariah, Khalid, and Kirk.

That said, Mariah’s astonishing high notes in the middle are nothing short of spectacular, and the gospel-style chorus that appears toward the end is truly wonderful.

Spending a winter night with this song playing is sure to make you feel utterly indulgent!
