White Christmas, penned by Irving Berlin, is one of my favorite Christmas songs. The most popular version by far is the classic version by Bing Crosby, which had sold millions and millions of copies throughout the years. This song always reminds me of Christmas as a child. I remember that I always wanted it to snow on Christmas back in those days. I'm posting Bing's rendition of the song, as well as several others for your enjoyment. Let me know which version you like the best.

Dean Martin:
Dolly Parton:
Robbie Williams: This is a more comical version of the song
Chesterfield was a popular brand of cigarettes back in the 1950's/1960's. It was actually the favorite cigarette brand of Lucille Ball. There are so many really cool vintage ads for their cigarettes. Many celebrities actually did advertising for them. Whether you're a smoker or not, it is neat to see this slice of another time period. I've got a bunch of ads from them that I plan to post in the future. Here are some of the Christmas ads Chesterfield did in the past. I hope you like them.
P.S. I hadn't originally put this in the post, but I'm adding it in now. I watched an Andy Williams Christmas special on PBS yesterday, so I wanted to share a clip from it with you guys. Here's Andy singing Silent Night.
The holiday season has arrived here at The Dino Lounge. I will be doing Christmas posts from now until Wednesday, December 23rd. That day will be my last post until Monday, December 28th. I will taking off to celebrate Christmas with my family and friends during my holiday break. I plan to post videos, photos, etc. during the next two weeks. I hope you will continue to come back to see what I'm posting next. This is a photo of Joey Heatherton and Perry Como. I assume this was on one of his Christmas specials. I'm not sure of the year though. I hope you like it. Put on some Rat Pack Christmas music, make yourself some hot chocolate, cozy up by the fire & get ready to enjoy the holidays with your pallie here at The Dino Lounge. We are going to have a very merry time together. Cheers!
This video is not from that special, but this is Perry Como singing It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas. This song was a big hit for Perry. I thought I would share it with you guys.
