Carrie Underwood shared her favorite Christmas song

In 2016, Carrie Underwood spoke to CMT about her favorite Christmas music. At the time, she revealed that she loved listening to “Do You Hear What I Hear?,” “O Holy Night,” and “The First Noel.” However, My Gift only features the track “O Holy Night.”

“It’s my favorite Christmas song. I mean, it just talks about the grandness of that night, and it’s just very powerful,” Carrie Underwood explained. “And it’s powerful singing it, and to me, it’s always been very powerful listening to it.”

Carrie recalls when her family would visit her grandmother at the nursing home when she was a little girl. They would sing Christmas carols and give gifts to the residents. She wants her sons to grow up with similar traditions and fond memories. She already recorded “Little Drummer Boy” with her son, Isaiah. Through her music, Carrie wants to remind fans of the importance of faith and people at Christmas.
