As far as contemporary takes on classic carols go, I'll always love this mashup from Barenaked Ladies and Sarah McLachlan, who make "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" a swinging, jazzy number, and lend "We Three Kings" some soul. The combination works astonishingly well and it was probably early exposure to this one that gave me a love for a good holiday medley.
