As wonderful as the holiday season is, certain elements can become tiresome by the time Christmas Day rolls around -- such as the endless amount of Christmas carols on the radio.

Most Christmas songs have been re-recorded several times over, and nearly all make it on the radio several times during the season. Other songs are also in the mix and while they too get played often and can get tiresome, they're still great ways to break up the traditional musical fare.

Enstars compiled a list of 10 non-traditional Christmas songs that are great additions to any holiday playlist:

1. All I Want For Christmas Is You, Mariah Carey (1994): Nearly 20 years after its release, All I Want For Christmas is still one of Carey's most famous hits. Carey is often asked to perform the song at holiday events like the lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree in New York City each year. The song's been covered several times by Shania Twain, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Cosgrove with Big Time Rush, John Mayer and Glee's Amber Riley. Carey herself also re-recorded it twice in 2010 and as a duet with Justin Bieber in 2011.

2. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, *NSYNC (1998): The first and only single released from *NSYNC's holiday album (second overall) is still a popular holiday tune for their long grown-up fans. A new version of the song was released in 2013 for the compilation album Punk Goes Christmas, performed by Issues.

3. Last Christmas, Wham! (1984): This covered song, about wondering if a past love who got away is worth reconsidering, is a classic. Covers have been performed by artists as varied as Jimmy Eat World, Hilary Duff, Ashley Tisdale and Cascada.

4. Merry Christmas (I Don't Want to Fight Tonight), The Ramones (1987): Though the band was already working towards their demise at this point, the plaintive plea to have peace and harmony for just one night is something that allows fans of the band to see them in an entirely new light.

5. Christmas (Baby Please Come Home), U2 (1987): Though the original was sung by Darlene Love and released in 1963, the U2 version is the most famous coverof the song.

6. Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town, Bruce Springsteen (1981): The song is a classic, but the rock and roll spin Bruce Springsteen put on it made a Christmas song that could have gotten cheesy, cool.

7. Jingle Bell Rock, Bobby Helms (1958): Though it has been re-recorded several times over, the original by Helms is still the best known version of the song. The younger generations may be most familiar with the short and sexier version featured in the 2004 comedy Mean Girls.

8. Do They Know It's Christmas, Band Aid (1984): It's not only a great Christmas tune, it's one with charitable roots as well. It was written to raise money for relief of the 1983-1985 famine in Ethiopia.

9. Christmas Wrapping, The Waitresses (1981): This pop song is one of the better holiday songs out there. It was later covered by The Spice Girls.

10. Santa Baby, Eartha Kitt(1953): This tongue-in-cheek song is about a woman who wants extravagant gifts like sables, yachts, decorations from Tiffany's, and a ring. It became a huge hit and remains one of the top Christmas songs recorded and written by a woman. It has since been covered by several artists, including Shakira, Madonna, Kylie Minogue, The Pussycat Dolls, LeAnn Rimes, Kellie Pickler, Taylor Swift, and Naya Rivera as Santana Lopez on FOX's Glee.
