After a record-breaking amount of votes — you guys really take your holiday music seriously! — the results are in. Your favorite Christmas Song of 2011 is Jackie Evancho’s “Believe”! The 11-year-old chanteuse won by a landslide with 84% in our annual poll — that’s 283,439 votes cast for this tiny songstress! Lady Gaga’s Little Monsters pushed her holiday song “White Christmas” to the #2 spot with 14% (45,702 votes), and The Killers’ knee-slappin’ “The Cowboys’ Christmas Ball” came in third with 2% (6,069 votes). Looks like there aren’t as many Beliebers out there as one might imagine, as Justin Bieber’s Christmas song “Mistletoe” came in dead last with only 213 votes. (Maybe we should have put up “Drummer Boy” for contention instead?)
Jackie Evancho’s “Believe” is a cover of the Josh Groban single that originally appeared on the soundtrack to The Polar Express. Watch the video for Jackie’s winning Christmas song below, and make sure to pick up her holiday album Heavenly Christmas. And, lest we forget to mention elsewhere, happy holidays to all of our readers!

Jackie Evancho is the most professional singer I have witnessed in all my years; a conductor/stage manager/director (‘s) dream come true. Robert Redford is probably very satisfied with his choice of Jackie for his new movie, The Company You Keep. And best of all is Jackie’s beautiful voice with perfect pitch, and that wondrous ability to inject lots of emotion into her songs, and share that with her amazed audiences. The perfect choice for this award from Idolator.
A beautiful song, beautifully sung by the best vocalist I have ever heard! Jackie brings joy to everyone who hears her incredible voice. Her talent is unparalleled!
jackie sweetie. I am an adoring fand -been with ya since the beginning. This isnt you best piece of work. You have a case of the “WAWA’s in this song. Your not annunciating your words sweetie. Mia babbage-though in italain you speak each word perfectly-clearly and exacly. In this song-the second half you cleaned it up. I know thier pressuring you to do differant songs. Dont forget your a crossover singer and the best!
jackie not go in justin bieber PLEASE JACKIE
Jackie Evancho is not an 11 year old who sings great…..she is a great singer who happens to be 11 years old.
Jackie is a lovely young girl, with the voice of an Angel, who happens to be 11 years old.
All other songs in poll = Pwned!
Jackie is truly amazing, I have been playing her Christmas album in my car for over a month and I just love it. So hard to believe she is so young with a voice like that! Let us hope she stays as sweet as she is and doesn’t have the same problems from the papparazzi as Charlotte Church has had. Another girl with a beautiful voice that the press just would not leave alone and according to an article I read ruined her career.
I’m glad for this.
I’m glad for this.
Jackie was voted in the top 10 of “most well mannered” celebrities or some category like that!! Not surprising but very very nice and reassuring!!
I LOVE the way Jackie sings. I love what she sings. Merry Christmas Dad Mike, Mom Lisa, Jake, Zach, and Rachel. And I hope a VERY merry Christmas for Little Sweet Jackie. May the Force Be With You!!!!!
Sir, I just CAREFULLY listened to this song TWICE, and have NO IDEA what you’re referring to. There’s ABSOLUTELY no ‘WAHWAH’ in her voice! She is FLAWLESSLY CONSISTANT IN EVERY AREA. JEM floats another song around us like the CONSUMMATE ARTIST that she has proven herself to be, time and time again which is a short time at that!
