White Christmas has sold over 50,000,000 PHYSICAL units. Yeah not digital, physical... making it the best selling single in the world!
Christmas music while being a hit or miss to some, is overall universally loved and is a multi-billon dollar industry. The music tends to feel so nostalgic and beautiful, encouraging the unity of family and giving. But some of the best part of Christmas music is the history behind it.
White Christmas was a written in a different era, where things were a lot more grim - yet it managed to help provide people some sort of solace. Not only has it stood the test of time, it has also paved the way for many of the Christmas songs we listen to today, and overall, has helped define what most of us feel Christmas is about today.
Hope you enjoy me outlining the history, along with a few personal opinions to explain why this song was able make such an impact!

Arianna Grande's UNDERRATED Christmas Song
I can usually distinguish a song if it's got a unique rhythm but that last part is definitely true. I don't enjoy music and it sucks that all my friends love it.
great video thanks for covering! i know i don’t have perfect pitch, but i have always been able to identify any pitch drawing it back to the open string tuning on my guitar. thanks for helping me discover that this is different from relative pitch! 😊
I probably need to order that book.
One man band.
Crazy...
Yes sir.
The effort put in this video editing is top notch👌🏾
Just learnt a lot from this. Thanks for the link Letitia😌🙏🥂 Great video,
This is amazing. Fascinating. Trey. You are blazing trails. Proud proud
thank you :) I'm glad you enjoyed!
❤ VERY interesting!!!!
THE KING IS BACK! loved this analysis. W vid
haha appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Some of the best things come by "accident". It's so cool to hear how this one came to be. Thanks for the video!!!
thanks for watching :)
Oh, love your style of giving background as well as analysis in an erudite, intelligent way! Well done!
Thank you kindly!
Great stuff, man! By the way, what software did you use to make that "board" effect? Looks cool when it's seen from the side.
This channel is so underrated your videos are awesome!!
Now THIS is a remix that i want
Cool vid
Although I appreciate that it is objectively a beautiful song it is one of my least favorite Michael Jackson songs of all time. Humanity is a disease and it did not deserve Michael Jackson or the message of Heal the World. Michael should have flipped off Humanity at the end of Earth Song. Michael you were far too good for this planet. I love you with all my heart
great video dude! I hear a hint of an accent in your voice..are you Trinidadian by any chance?
Haha not Trinidadian but Bahamian :)
The quality of this video looks like it’s made by someone with 2M+ followers! Your video editing skill is outstanding, keep it up! One minor suggestion might be to make the content even more concise and go straight to the points. But it’s really minor though.
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback :)
Great video - relative vs perfect pitch... Agree relative pitch is good enough, the main thing is being able to create the songs we know and love. Interesting analogy with the colors, a step further 90% of all people have "perfect color" so that does not make us all legendary renaissance painters 🤔... could it be just like we learned colors through association and then all by themselves maybe the same process happens for musical notes? Maybe a missing link somewhere in music education? I know guitar notes based off the low E A strings, then find my way...while others took the time to memorize each note by rote... same for typing...is hunt and peck good enough? A lot of folks are advanced " hunt and peck" but it looks like they have taken typing classes...ha ha ha :) Anyone else type things and realize your fingers are just going and you are not thinking about where the keys are? You do it I guarantee it, BUT soon as you start thinking about it you start looking at the keyboard...mind is a funny thing...
Hey man! Great video and I appreciated your explanation. Saw it recommended and it's a shame you're not more popular. I was always fascinated by those that can play anything by ear. It's nice to know that this can be practiced through ear training and you don't necessarily need perfect pitch. Thanks again!
I keep hearing "air" instead of "ear", but other than that i think I'm good.
Loved this video! If I can point something you could easily improve I would ask you to tune your volume a bit higher. Just telling because I notice the sound lower than usual videos. It sounds very clear, I appreciate the sound quality, this advice is just to give you some ideia about what you may improve to make your work even better. Good job! Thanks for share your content with us!
Thanks for the feedback!
5/4 kinda slaps
Lovely video and great insight, learned something new today 😆 thank you!
Perfect pitch is like speaking a language as native language. But it doesn't necessary mean you will be a great poet or actor, however a foreign speaker can practice enough the language to be able to write great poetries or interpret well monologs. It's all about work.

I learned this one SIMPLE TRICK to becoming a PRO MUSICIAN: Practice. It’s practice.
Shout out the 🇧🇸 great video
👀👀👀you have to be Bahamian. Automatic subscription from me🇧🇸🇧🇸
Also, I'm a amateur musician myself so I definitely enjoyed the video as well.
🇧🇸🇧🇸 242 to the world!
Odd question are you from the Caribbean?
I am 😂
I could hear the tonal difference
Spot on analysis; you're doing great work here my friend, and it shows ✌️ keep going and I can see that you will go far by helping people deepen their understanding of great pieces of art 🫡
After watching this video with a new perspective on singing and music etc, I highly recommend watching Qin Xianglian a 4:45min clip of the Chinese opera, singing he hits many notes for each word, similar to Indian gamakas, thought everyone who saw this video would also get a kick outta the Beijing opera Qin Xianglian
Like, try singing along with that song, even some of the people with the best pitch might have a hard time singing it by ear for the first time
Through this video I realised I had relative pitch, pitch memorisation most of my life and developed perfect pitch at 15 yr😊.
Man so awesome!
Your voice is so..... boring
I play a few different instruments mostly by ear and have found that my perception of pitch varies quite drastically depending on the instrument. On sax, I often rely on pitch memorization because each note has a slightly different timbre. On guitar, I mostly use relative pitch to find my way around due to the consistent placement of intervals. On piano, on a good night, I often just know when notes will be correct without operating in any theoretical framework and with no muscle memory. The hard part for me is squaring these pitch-finding skills with the technique that I have. It feels as if they live in two separate parts of my brain and I can rarely bridge that gap. When it happens, it’s the best feeling in the world, though.
i hear that cyc accent brother
You are a great explainer! Keep it coming!
The explanation of perfect pitch reminds me of my great-grandfather. He wasn’t a musician, but could tell by the pitch of the whistle which line the trains running past our house were from. My father (his grandson) had excellent pitch memory until he was in his 60’s. I’m not sure where mine fits in. I can recognize a note within half a step by how it “feels” to play it on my instrument.
sounds to me like some form of pitch memorization :)
If you like dci menes you knew it was 3 and would never get E confused with any other note. Only E...
I know that accent from a mile away 🇧🇸🇧🇸 good stuff bro, definitely subscribed!!
yes sir appreciate the support!! 🇧🇸🇧🇸
Amazing how you broke down the music. More so over the “key” music is in and how the overall message in songs completes the session
As I was a kid I was a really big Michael Jackson fan. But over the years I've moreless forgotten about his great personality and music and with your Video you've remembered me about him so I can hear his music again. And sorry for the bad english but I am German 🇩🇪.😁
Your English is fine! Thank you for the kind words 👌
And always remember… nothing of this makes you a better musician. Better think about what kind of musician you want to be.
As someone with perfect pitch, it's very helpful for composition cause I can hear music in my head and instantly write it down without needing an instrument, but that can also be done with good relative pitch. To be honest, in general it's pretty damn useless. Having said that though, I wouldn't give it up for anything cause it's just a part of how I experience music
Love this video! You need more subscribers -- there you go. BTW, the sound level seems kind of low compared to the other youtube videos I'm listening to -- could you adjust going forward?
Thank you and I appreciate the feedback, will do!
1 John 4:8 Whoever does not love has not come to know God, because God is love.
So if someone didn't have perfect pitch, but had memorised a particular note and could figure out any other note from that memorised note, what would that be called? It's not perfect pitch per-say, neither is it really relative
I would say that's just using pitch memory with relative pitch
