Although Michael Bublé is this new generation’s “Frank Sinatra,” his melodic match with the great Rod Stewart is surprisingly stunning as their pitch combination compliments the best parts of each voice. Being one of the most beautiful Christmas songs out there, the two gentlemen perform it with effortless grace.
“Sleigh bells ring, are you listening? In the lane, snow is glistening. A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight, walking in a winter wonderland…”
Watch their performance below.
Written in 1934 by Richard B. Smith and Felix Bernard, “Winter Wonderland” is a beautiful song with a beautiful story about a magical white Christmas with a silly snowman. The tune is not only pleasant, but each of us have fantasized about building a snowman that comes to life after watching the Frosty the Snowman special on TV.
Interesting Fact: The lyricist Richard Smith served as an editor of a newspaper before taking up a career in music. The composer Felix Bernard, who was born in Brooklyn, New York, played the piano with popular orchestras and was also a tap dancer and writer of musical comedies for Vaudeville.
It is no secret that both of these men know their way around a mic, so to see the wonderful duo between the two really is breathtaking. We hope you have a winter wonderland Christmas whether it’s real snow or you have to use your imagination!
