    Instruments: piano, strings, vocals
    Date: late 40s
    Style: big band with campy vocals over a light instrumental.
    This was recorded in front of a live audience.
    The playful tone and nature of the song is a common one that is found in many modern pop songs about the holidays.
    The instrumental is toned down in order to give the vocals more clarity on the track.
