By new I mean original songs, not covers of older standards.
I quite like Merry Christmas by Ed Sheeran and Elton John
Yeah, that was the only new Christmas song I could come up with.
Does Valhalleluja count?
Yes, holy shit, this is gold.
Excellent pick!
I initially had a negative reaction, but it’s grown on me. I’ve listened to it 3 times and have added it to my christmas playlist.
More than a little older than 5 years, but this is probably my favorite “new” Christmas song.
Been a fan of Kacey Musgraves’ christmas show & album

This?
Edit: I really like Willie Nice Christmas
Looking forward to listening to all of these suggestions 🙌🏼☃️
Christmas Pain in Christmas Town by Hot Dad which was featured in the game Hypnospace Outlaw.
I like the Vulfpeck track Christmas in LA. Technically it may be a cover, but I haven’t heard the original.
You know, I’m not a huge Billie Eilish fan, but when she performed the Christmas episode on SNL last year I fell in love with her Christmas renditions.
Also love Haley Reinhart’s rendition of Santa Baby. Very jazzy and fun.
I really enjoy the ethereal aspect she adds to her music.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Just a heads up, the creator of the Obscurest Vinyl AI music channel is half crazy, but in a really good funny way!
If you are into violin folk rock, Andrew Bird’s album Hark!
I love Andrew Bird
I’ve gotta throw J. Roddy Walston’s “Is it Christmas Tonight?” in the mix. It’s pretty catchy.
You may like a song I co-wrote in an old band as a joke a few years back. We didn’t do anything with it really, but it eventually got played on local radio (once) which was quite nice.
Carly Rae Jepsen - “It’s Not Christmas Till Somebody Cries” https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rF9ST-j3u4M
My joke suggestion is Santa Tell Me by Ariana Grande. Mostly because it gives Santa very interesting Christmas themed powers of mind reading and divination.
But I really enjoyed Sia’s Everyday is Christmas album which is now on regular rotation this season. They are all new Christmas songs and got some bangers.
The grammar policeman in my head is angry that nobody corrected the title. “Every Day”
