“Jingle Bells”
Jingle Bells…Frank Sinatra
Classic!
Quite a curious thing that one of the most famous Christmas songs, Jingle Bells, has not always been associated with this holiday and its roots remain undiscovered until nowadays. The song was written by James Lord Pierpont when he was still a young boy attending boarding school. Originally, the song didn’t mean to tell anything about Christmas and a Santa Clause riding the sledges. The lyrics, indeed, reflect the Pierpont’s fond memories of his childhood in New England where winters were filled with the thrill of racing through the snow covered landscape in open sleighs drawn by horses.

The “Last Christmas” song has become a Christmas symbol, even though the song features the story of a broken heart. Many famous singers, such as Taylor Swift, Ashley Tisdale, Coldplay, and Jimmy Eat World created their own covers of this song. And even though being so widely known and admired and after having become the biggest selling single in UK and Japan, it didn’t manage to reach the top rankings of music charts in these same countries.
“BETELEHEMU”
Betelehemu – African Children’s Choir
Beautiful Nigerian Christmas Carol entitled “Betelehemu” – sung by the African Children’s Choir. I accidentally made the video about a minute and five seconds longer than the song is. So when you hear the song end, that’s it. It’s just blank after with the picture of the choir.
This Nigerian Christmas song was written by the Nigerian drummer Babatunde Olatunji. Today this song is widely known all around the world and is usually accompanied by drumming and choreography.
