As Will Ferrell infamously states in Elf, "the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear" - and nothing puts us in the holiday spirit more than hearing our favorite celebs cover some Christmas tunes! Whether you're cuddled up in front of the fire or outside having a snowball fight, these songs are just what you need!

American Idol alum Scotty McCreery put his deep, soulful voice to work in his beautiful countrified cover of "The First Noel" .

Even though it's not a traditional holiday song, we can't help loving Justin Bieber's latest song "Mistletoe." Instant classic!

Michael Buble's jazzy cover of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" is exactly what the season is supposed to be about - fun!

"I'll Be Home For Christmas" is one of our favorite Christmas classics, and Kelly Clarkson definitely does the song justice!

We love New Girl star Zooey Deschanel, and when she joins with Matt Ward to form She & Him, we can't stop smiling! Their cover of "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" is amazing!

Yes, the Biebs makes the list twice. But just listen to his "All I Want for Christmas is You" duet with Mariah Carey and you'll see why!

Last but not least, we have Darren Criss and Chris Colfer's fast and flirty duet of "Let it Snow", which will be on Glee's 2011 Christmas album! They sound great together, and we love the new take on the holiday hit!
