Which Christmas Songs Made The Cut?

When broken down by search interest totals, Bing Cosby pulls out the slightest of wins in Colorado, with his 1942 classic ā€œWhite Christmasā€ scoring 14 points in Colorado to beat out ā€œJingle Bell Rockā€ (13 search interest score) and Eartha Kitā€™s 1953 classic ā€œSanta Baby,ā€ which finished the year with a search interest score of 10 points in the Rocky Mountain State.  

Rounding out the Colorado quintet of holiday jams for the year, search interest score wise, were ā€œAll I Want For Christmas Is Youā€ by Carey, which scored eight points, while ā€œRockinā€™ Around The Christmas Treeā€ by Brenda Lee was fifth with a search interest score of five points in Colorado this year.  

Of the five, only Careyā€™s 1990ā€™s Christmas song can be termed anything close to ā€œmodern,ā€ while the stateā€™s other top picks for the holiday season this year all date back to either the post-war or wartime periods of the 1940s and 1950s, with the oldest song of the bunch taking home top honors in Colorado this Christmas.
