One of the most remarkables Christmas singles is The Christmas Song also known like Merry Christmas to You or Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire. The one was first recorded by The Nat King Cole Trio in 1946. Once it was released, The Christmas Song became in a hit as R&B as Pop Chart in the United States. In fact, Nat King Cole was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame for this song in 1974. Other singers who have released it as a cover are: Bob Dylan, Ashanti, Barbra Streisand, Aretha Fanklin, Chris Brown, Mary J Blige, Martina McBride, Celine Dion, Trey Songz, Ella Fitzgerald, Sheryl Crow, Sarah Connor, Donna Summer and Whitney Houston. Nat King Cole was active from 1935 to 1965. During his career he was recognized for his soft baritone voice. However he was a heavy smoker and that was the reason of his death (lung cancer) on 15th February, 1965.
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose, Yuletide carols being sung by a choir, And folks dressed up like Eskimos Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe, They know that Santa’s on his way And so I’m offering this simple phrase, (Musical interlude) And so I’m offering this simple phrase, Is the video not working? Please report it here. Thank you for your help!
