This classic holiday jingle was first introduced as part of the musical Meet Me in St. Louis. Written by famous songwriters, Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane, the lyrics were slightly modified for Frank Sinatra in the 50s. This is the version that has become synonymous with the holiday season.

2. Frosty the Snowman

Frosty is in the running for most iconic Xmas character along with Rudolph, The Grinch and Ol’ St. Nick himself. Although we give Frosty extra points for having his very own theme song and most importantly for distancing himself from his cousin, Jack.
