Three traditional Christmas Songs are O Christmas Tree, Jingle Bells, and O Little Town of Bethlehem. There are dozens or hundreds more, but these have been done by many musicians.
Some examples of Christmas carols that have been rearranged and performed in minor keys include "Silent Night," "Jingle Bells," and "Deck the Halls." These versions give the songs a darker and more haunting feel compared to their traditional joyful melodies.

The Christmas song, "All I Want for Christmas," is a traditional Christmas carol that has been made into mainstream music. The variations of the song include "All I Want for Christmas is a Real Good Tan" and "All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth."
There are songs written especially for Christmas. There are also songs that are traditionally associated with Christmas but that are not explicitly for or about Christmas. There are many pieces of religious music that can be used at any season, including Christmas. And there are holiday-related verses that aren't really songs but that may have been set to music. There are songs in all four categories in many languages. And there are new songs being written all the time, sometimes for movies, sometimes for particular local events such as a church pageant, sometimes for commercial production. So there is no way to count how many Christmas songs there are.

Australia does not hold activities that are unique to Australia alone, except for "takes" on traditional Christmases, such as having a "Bush Christmas". Kangaroos may be substituted for reindeer in plays and displays, and many Australian Christmas songs have been written, which one can invariably hear being played when one views Christmas lights displays. On Christmas Day, which is held in mid-Summer, Australians often have an outdoor barbeque for Christmas dinner, or a picnic down at the beach, usually with a traditional game of cricket thrown in.
