ReplyDeleteFun fact, Johnny Marks was Jewish, and he was responsible for a number of the modern Christmas songs that are still beloved today. Thank you for featuring one of these today. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteCute song. A few years ago, when I still got paid for working (ha!) the family-owned business went all-out with the decorations which included a 2-foot singing Santa with quite a swing to his little red bootie. They always put him on my desk. I think his little hip finally went out...
