Actually Elvis was the first person to record this song back in 1957 for his Elvis' Christmas Album. It is a classic album. All the songs are great. The other big hit off that album was "Blue Christmas". I suggested before for Female Friday to do Ann Wilson's version of "Blue Christmas". Ann is one of the sisters from Heart.

I think everyone is mistaking this song for Santa Claus is Coming to Town. Two very different songs. Mariah covered Santa Claus is Coming to Town, and someone else mentioned Bruce Springsteen, but, again, he covered Santa Claus is Coming to Town. Just pointing that out. Also, for a good bluesy version of this song, Brian Setzer Orchestra covered this. Not as good as Elvis, but good all the same.

This song was originally released by Elvis in 1957. I just checked, while the song has been covered quite a bit, I couldn’t see too many famous artist in the list. It was written by the famous duo Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller who wrote quite extensively for Elvis in the 50s. Songs like Jailhouse Rock, Don’t, Treat Me Nice, King Creole and a bunch of others. They also wrote Hound Dog for Big Mama Thornton, that Elvis went on to have a huge hit with

Gospel music is also great for setting the Christmas mood. And Elvis made two great gospel records. In fact, they are the only recordings he won a Grammy for. If you want to see him sing, PEACE IN THE VALLEY, live watch him on the Ed Sullivan Show. But if you prefer the studio version the sound quality is better. WHITE CHRISTMAS SILVER BELLS I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS are warm reminders of the season. My Mother always loved hearing Elvis sing gospel and Christmas songs no matter the time of year. She said it was good for the soul. MERRY CHRISTMAS, Rob Squad !!

I'm raising my hand too for "Blue Christmas". Elvis's Christmas music was a staple in my house growing up and I still love to hear it. I don't think you would have heard "Santa Claus is back in Town" by anyone else. It was written for Elvis and he sang it. I have never heard another version. God bless you, but just like you said once that harmonicas are used more in bluegrass, I knew then that you'd never heard bluegrass. I've been a bluegrass musician since the age of 7. I started playing with my family of musicians on stage at the age of 8. While people will whip out any instrument when they're sitting around jamming, I've never in my life heard harmonicas used in bluegrass recordings. Although I'm sure somewhere somebody has. I love ya'lls channel. I don't want to be a downer either. Sometimes i have to just stop watching, because I wish you'd give a little more effort into accuracy. I wish you well.

I have his Christmas albums, and love his version of "I'll Be Home For Christmas". I know Jay & Amber reacted to Bing Crosby's "White Christmas, but Elvis managed to put his own spin on the classic song, giving it a bit of an upbeat tempo. It's my second favorite version of the song. And my favorite movie soundtrack of his is from "Loving You". I fell in love with Elvis at the tender age of 4 (1957) ! My mother bought that album and would play it for me often. At the time, my favorite track was "(Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear". As I got older, I came to appreciate the other songs, my favorites being the title song "Loving You" and (my favorite to this day), "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You". I still have the album, and about 15 years ago, bought the CD to play in the car. It's still one of my favorite albums of all time.
