美國爵士樂歌王[小亨利•康尼克]──搖擺/爵士樂聖誕曲──[Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!/下雪吧!

 

Oh, the weather outside is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

And since weve no place to go

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

 

It doesnt show signs of stopping

And I brought some corn for popping

The lights are turned way down low

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

 

When we finally kiss good-night

How Ill hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home Ill be warm

 

The fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, were still good-bye-ing

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

 

When we finally kiss good-night

How Ill hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home Ill be warm

 

The fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, were still good-bye-ing

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Songwriters: Jule Styne, Sammy Cahn

1993年10月, 被稱為法蘭克辛納屈(Frank Sinatra)接班人的26歲美國爵士樂歌手小亨利·康尼克(Harry Connick Jr.)發行他的首張耶誕專輯[When My Heart Finds Christmas

Tracey Freeman製作

除翻唱十首聖誕名曲外, 外加四首個人創作新歌

融合耶誕音樂,爵士與傳統流行, 樂評不錯 大眾反應亦佳

When My Heart Finds Christmas]登上Billboard專輯榜#13

1993年時賣了74.8萬張, 成為當年最暢銷聖誕大碟

至今累積已近320萬, 拿到3白金唱片

 

專輯推出數首宣傳主打

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!/下雪吧!]是近年推出的一首

此曲由Sammy ChanJulie Styne譜寫

1945年由Vaughn Monroe先灌錄 登上Billboard單曲榜冠軍

Woody Herman的版本也登上排行榜#7

不過最著名的卻是影歌巨星狄恩馬丁(Dean Martin)1959年的版本

雖沒發行單曲 但因狄恩的人氣 加上時常表演

超越Vaughn Monroe的冠軍原版 成為最受歡迎的版本

 

康尼克版是首大樂團演奏 搖擺樂加爵士樂風的聖誕歌曲

在搖曳的樂聲間, 小亨利展現其駕馭這類傳統流行樂的功力

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!]在2017年末登上Billboard特別設立的季節性副榜──年節歌曲(Holiday100 )#69

也讓[When My Heart Finds Christmas]持續名列美國最暢銷的聖誕專輯之一
