Well, hello there. I hope all of you are having an amazing Christmas! So, let’s dig into today’s segment of Who Did It Better, shall we? There are so many different versions of this Christmas classic, but here are some notable ones.
Old Blue Eyes sings his heart out.
I really dig the backing vocals.
And here Conor tops Sinatra with this Bright Eyes version.
This song exemplfiies what is great about BE: extremely passionate, somber vocals, practically whispering the words.

Judy Garland- Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

This is my favorite Christmas song; it is not a jingle nor a carol and has more emotion than just about any other holiday song one cares to name. Specifically, I adore this version because of Judy Garland’s exceptional vocals, it just makes the music feel all the more sentimental, in a very good way.
But, what do you guys think?
