Top Artists We're Hoping to Hear from in 2025
Before we get into the nitty-gritty of the new holiday albums we're hoping to see in 2025, let's talk about the artists we're crossing our fingers will grace us with their presence. Here are a few we think could be at the top of their game and ready to spread some holiday magic:
- Adele: After her massive comeback in 2021, we're hoping the queen of heartbreak will give us some emotional holiday ballads to belt out while trimming the tree. - Taylor Swift: With her re-recorded albums under her belt, we're keeping our fingers crossed that Swift will bless us with some new festive tunes inspired by her Folklore-era sound. - BTS: The K-pop sensations have taken the world by storm, and we think a holiday album could be just the thing to get us all in the spirit. - Harry Styles: After the success of his 2019 holiday single "Lights Up," we're hoping the former One Directioner will treat us to a full-length festive album.
New Holiday Albums We're Dying to Hear in 2025
Now, let's get down to business and talk about the new holiday albums we're hoping to see in 2025. Here are a few we think could be absolute bangers:
Mariah Carey's Magical Christmas Revisited
We can't talk about holiday music without mentioning the queen of Christmas herself, Mariah Carey. While we're still waiting on a follow-up to her 1994 classic Merry Christmas, we're crossing our fingers that Mariah will give us a new holiday album in 2025. Maybe she'll even bring back some of her iconic '90s looks for the music videos? Fingers crossed!
Wham!'s Last Christmas Reunion
Speaking of '90s nostalgia, what if George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley decided to reunite for a new holiday album in 2025? We can already hear the screams of joy from Wham! fans everywhere. While we know it's a long shot, we can't help but dream of a festive follow-up to their 1984 classic Last Christmas.
Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak's Holiday Harmony
After the success of their supergroup Silk Sonic, we're hoping Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak will team up again for a new holiday album in 2025. We can just imagine the smooth, soulful tracks they'd create – perfect for cozying up by the fire with someone special.
The Killers' Christmas Spectacular
We've already got "A Great Big Sled" and "Don't Shoot Me Santa" from The Killers, but we're greedy and want more! A new holiday album from Brandon Flowers and co. would be the perfect stocking stuffer, and we're hoping they'll deliver in 2025.
Our Wishlist for New Holiday Albums in 2025
While we're hoping for some big-name artists to release new holiday albums in 2025, we also have a few more wishes for the festive season:
- More diversity in holiday music: We'd love to see more holiday albums from artists of different backgrounds and genres, helping to make the holiday season even more inclusive. - Some classic Christmas covers with a twist: While we love a good classic Christmas song, we'd also welcome some unique takes on holiday favorites. Think: a reggae version of "Jingle Bells" or a heavy metal "Silent Night." - A holiday album from our favorite podcast hosts: Okay, this one might be a bit of a stretch, but we'd love to see some of our favorite podcast hosts release a new holiday album together. We're thinking something along the lines of The Office's "The Duel" episode, but with even more holiday cheer.
