"There's a tree in the Grand Hotel": "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" sung by Dean Martin

This bouncy little song was written by Meredith Wilson in 1951. If his name (yes, Meredith was a man's name back then) sounds familiar, it's because he wrote the music for The Music Man.

The story goes that he was staying in Yarmouth, Novia Scotia, looking out at "the tree in the Grand Hotel," --and presumable one in the park as well.

If Dean Martin isn’t your style, you can find versions by Bing Crosby, Perry Como, Johhny Mathis, Michael Buble, & Alvin & the Chipmunks on Freegal.
