So, what are the significant points?

Obviously, less of an emphasis on history and Jesus.  Surprisingly, Carol of the Bells is not, to me at least; well it isn't actually a carol.  But I have to look up the definition.  And it's the only song anywhere on the list that mentions the name Jesus. There's one version that mentions Jesus and the others are instrumental.  Ironic that the list is noticeable for not much Jesus but the most prolific on the list uses it.
