Savannah Guthrie

Hoda Kotb

Al Roker

Craig Melvin The songs I chose are ones I listen to every year and share with my family. Our favorite is Silent Night by The Temptations, but this playlist also has some classics by Mariah Carey and even Darius Rucker!

Carson Daly

Sheinelle Jones For me, music speaks to my heart in ways words can't. These are songs that remind me of what's beautiful about the holidays.

Dylan Dreyer My songs are steeped in nostalgia-I grew up in the '80s so when I hear U2 or Bruce Springsteen's Christmas songs, I'm transported to Christmas Eve with my family growing up!

Jenna Bush Hager

Ho-ho-holiday trends The TODAY team is in sync with Spotify users who are also creating their own playlists for the festive season. Since the start of November, holiday playlist creation on Spotify has spiked by more than 1,400% as listeners pull together their favorite collections of jolly jingles.

Canadian singer-songwriter Michael Bubl is the King of Christmas, taking the honor of the top-streamed artist globally this season. If you're looking for a festive album to set the mood while entertaining or heading on your holiday travels, we recommend Bubl 's Christmas, which is Spotify's most-streamed Christmas album of all time.

Mariah Carey's 1994 hit All I Want for Christmas Is You remains a favorite as the top-streamed holiday song this year, and the vocal powerhouse is also the second-most-streamed holiday artist.

Keep the merriment flowing with Spotify's other festive playlists, like Christmas Hits, Christmas Classics, Country Christmas, New Music Holiday, and snow globe.
