375. White Christmas (Irving Berlin)
Uploaded by: raymondcrooke
Video Description:
This song was written by Irving Berlin in early 1940 in Phoenix, Arizona. He proclaimed that it was not only the best song he ever wrote, but the best song anybody ever wrote.
The song was first sung by Bing Crosby in the 1942 movie, "Holiday Inn", as a duet with Marjorie Reynolds, whose voice was actually dubbed by Martha Mears. It won the academy award for Best Original Song. In the original script it was meant to be sung by Reynolds alone. A later movie, "White Chr
istmas", which, of course, takes its title from the song, starred Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye and Rosemary Clooney, and was the biggest-grossing film of 1954. Crosby's single of "White Christmas" has been the best-selling single in any music category. I'm no Bing Crosby, but here is my attempt at the
song.
