I heard a cover of this EXACT version in a store today - same jazzy rhythm and everything, and I was so surprised there was a cover of it! It's such a cool and unique version that I was genuinely surprised!
My dad used to absolutely love this song by The Drifters. He has dementia now. I’m thinking about playing this song for him to see if it will jog his memory.
My husband was on the church bus one day he sung like the singer with the deep voice it was pretty cool as he was putting his arm around me as he was singing oh happy times I miss Ryan so much 😢
This rendition belongs in the Top 10 Christmas Songs of All Time. It's fun, peppy and chill at the same time, and is sung by a very talented group of people. It's not Christmas until this song is played.
I took a shower washing every body part with actual soap; including all my major crevices; including in between my toes and in my belly button which I never did before but sort of enjoyed. I washed my hair with adult formula shampoo and used cream rinse for that just-washed shine. I can't seem to find my toothbrush, so I'll pick one up when I go out today. Other than that, I'm in good shape. AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
I love these old black groups sooo much!! I practically tear up at the beauty and intensity of the feeling I get. I hope that’s okay and normal for me or anyone.❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 America, I’m Canadian, but you’ve always had a lot of amazingly good music!
Ooh, doop doop, doop doo doop Ooh, doop doop, doop doo doop I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where those treetops glisten and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow, the snow Then I, I, I am dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days, may your days, may your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white I, I, I am dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where the treetops glisten and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow I, I, I am dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days, may your days, may your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle bells all the way, ooh
I'm from India and even though I like our major festivals like Ganesh Chathurti and Diwali, there's just something about Christmas that hits me differently. I get excited during the month of December even though we don't celebrate Christmas. But watching Home Alone on Christmas Eve is a tradition❤️
Christmas song hit differently because it celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. I too love watching Home Alone on Christmas Eve. I am glad that you have celebrations like christmas.
Maybe when you have your own kids you can continue your traditional holidays and maybe even include Christmas. “May your days, May your days, May your days be Mary and bright. And may all your Christmases be white”
This song, Merry Christmas, Baby and Please Come Home for Christmas are the best. They remind me when I was a child growing up in the south. Those were good old days.
🎄🎁WE ARE REMINISCING BACK WHEN CHRISTMAS MUSIC HAD A VERY REALISTIC POETIC MEANING AND IT WAS MADE SO BEAUTIFULLY THAT IT STILL CONTINUE'S TO CAPTIVATE US. 🌧🌧🌧🌧🌧❄️❄️⛄️
His name was Clyde McPhatter. This first group of Drifters was legendary! The amazing vocals of Clyde and bass man Bill Pinkney along with the Thrasher Brothers, Gerhart and Andrew holding down the 2nd tenor and baritone parts in the middle! Sadly Andrew was left out when they were inducted into the RRHOF!
I know that a lot of people may not relate to this or think that I’m weird for this but I think this is personally one of the best Christmas songs, I think that it combines Reality with happiness and is able to create a song that makes you feel different feelings throughout the song. And also when I was depressed a long time ago when December hit I put on the song every single day and it always managed to put a smile on my face sometimes when I think of this song I think of myself dancing to this song while making snickerdoodles and family dancing with me. This song is a doctor for all things sad. Truly amazing!
Doo Wop finest 50s even before Drifters got massive after Clyde and Bill went.Have this on Xmas CD Comp of 2 Top Xmas Movies off all time Home Alone and Santa Clause.Merry Xmas and Happy Holidays to all over Our World 🌎🌍
That was one of the best versions. I love the classics, you can never go wrong with them. I'm an 80s baby but songs from way back when are my favorites.
This is the very best rendition of White Christmas out there ! They sound like Angels! Thank you for sharing it with us. May you and yours have the happiest and most blessed Christmas of all. 🌲
Man, I watched this movie when it came out & I was 8 years old. Yet, every time. I see something new & or, feel it in a different way. I was lucky to have a Mum that always made our Christmases EXTRA full & happy. I carried my Mum's casket last October & I miss her so much. ❤️✌🏼🎬
Had to play this on Christmas with late and great Bill Pickney and the late and great Clyde Mcphatter on lead for The Drifters play this on my internet radio show Classic Soul me the Masterblaster.
My dad and I would always cut up anytime this song would play. We would lip sync it but I always would do the high solo part. I had a running gag that something would go amiss with my solo such as coughing because the note was too high for me. My dad has been deceased for nearly 5 years and now this song reminds me of him.
1:38 never ever gets old
Magici😢
Amazing talent!!!
That part goes hard for sure!
The Drifters did not have to go this hard on the track but they did it for us!
They did that
They sure did!
👍 😎💕♥️
Can you explain what this means? Genuinely curious. Happy New Year!
lol fax
@@jackwilliams5474 Basically he's saying that they didn't have to make such a good song
Home Alone ensured that this is the "real" version of this song in my mind.
It was also heard in The Santa Clause where Scott burns the turkey
💯 agree 👍
I looked for this too lol
Best version ever
@@zachzach8349 me too buddy. It's not online.
Kevin “Aaaahhhhhh” with the aftershave.
Also Scott and his son Charlie going to Denny’s

Definitely do that! Find some more of his old favorites too, because if it makes him happy, you're not going to want to stop.
Sound can be very powerful in memory! I hope he still loves it, and you can listen to more songs he loved together.
If you see a smile, it did.
Give him Lions mane!
Music has a way of touching your mind like nothing else
Hands down one of my favourite Christmas songs
Holidays are back! 🎉
Yep
Same here
This to me is one of the best Xmas songs ….makes me think of how my grandparents and parents listened to this when the world was a simpler place
Me too
this always reminds me of Home Alone
Screaming after using aftershave
I agree.
The Santa clause brought me here too
@@Johnlindsey289 I thought the spider under the toilet scared him.
The Drifters sung this song better than anyone else! I can always listen to it. Throughout the entire year!
this and wonderful christmastime
the bing ver is also amazing
I thank John Hughes for keeping this gem alive.
I swear- this song will never get old, it still has the groove. ;))
Love the swing!
My favorite Christmas song. I just shared it on facebook with my friends.
My husband was on the church bus one day he sung like the singer with the deep voice it was pretty cool as he was putting his arm around me as he was singing oh happy times I miss Ryan so much 😢
God bless you sister
He's still with you sweetheart and you will be with him again!
Sorry
Watching Home Alone right now and I had to come here to listen to this song.
" I'm Down here you big horse's ass !"
Good choice!😊

Every time I hear another version of this song, I wish I were hearing this one.
@Let's Go Brandon well this song itself is a cover, but its a certified classic in its own right, Merry Christmas btw
Listening to this in the middle of January hits different
An ABSOLUTE CLASSIC for everyone!!! Growing up watching Home Alone, this song is an absolute hit! The Drifters is such a good band!! I’m in 😍😍😍😍😍😍
And this song was also in the Santa clause
I love Doo Wop

Thank you Greg I really needed this right about now.

You know this song SLAPS when you listen to it all year round.
Ooh, doop doop, doop doo doop
Ooh, doop doop, doop doo doop
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where those treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow, the snow
Then I, I, I am dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days, may your days, may your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I, I, I am dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I, I, I am dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days, may your days, may your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle bells all the way, ooh
Four hours?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Finest version of this classic!

Christmas song hit differently because it celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. I too love watching Home Alone on Christmas Eve. I am glad that you have celebrations like christmas.
This is a secular Christmas song.
Mayby you should start celebrating it
Maybe when you have your own kids you can continue your traditional holidays and maybe even include Christmas. “May your days, May your days, May your days be Mary and bright. And may all your Christmases be white”
Nobody cares about Indian traditions so don't even say anything about it
The Santa Clause movie brought me here...again. Love it!
1:08 love when this guy comes in. Lol. Best version of the song by far
Sounds like Herbert the Pervert from Family Guy 😂
With the Mix of Mickey 😂@@LittleJoePeep
@@LittleJoePeepthanks, now I'll never un-hear it

In Home Alone this is where Kevin starts screaming
“Alright. Denny’s! It’s always open!”

Best Christmas Song, Ever!!
Home Alone played all the right Christmas songs.
I love this upbeat rendition of “White Christmas”. The guy with that falsetto made this rendition!!

Still listening in '24. 70 years!!!!!!
The best version and certain parts make me smack my face and scream
This song was also in the Al Franken movie, "Stuart Saves His Family!" 👍😎💕
