As I was growing up this song was on my Dad's favorite Christmas album. That album was the soundtrack of our family's holidays. Dad's gone now but when I hear Jim Reeves I am flooded with sentimentality and a lifetime of wonderful Christmas memories. Oh, and Dad's birthday was December 25. So thank you for posting this, and Happy Birthday, Dad.
this time is very nostalgic..takes me thirty years back and I see myself playing around with the voice of Jim Reeves in the background..what a beautiful Christmas!
I know all the lyrics and every song of him brings tears to my eyes.......No singer can replace you...and IMMORTAL you remain....
Oh my, I never knew he was already dead. You know, I was born on 1994 and I was raised listening to his christmas songs every christmas holidays, until 4th grade. And now, everytime i listen to his songs, it brings back a lot of my childhood memories before we moved in to our new house far, far away from the place i used to grow up.
Jim Reeves was without question one of the greatest singers who ever lived! Too bad that I was only 9 years old when he passed away. But I now own most everything that he ever recorded in original vinyl format.....
Great song...great man singing it...he puts his heart in every song he sings....I am alone this year..wife is gone...God Bless All and remember JESUS is the REASON for this SEASON
I wish Elvis had recorded "But you love me Daddy" He did record 'I'm beginning to forget you', 'Make the world go away' and 'He'll have to go' which is the last studio recorded song of Elvis. Elvis's roots are country, he had Billboard Country #1 Hits long before he became a sensation with 'Heartbreak Hotel'. RIP Jim~RIP Elvis.
My father love this song very much.i too love it! We live in a hilly and green place where one can see full of green trees.Our town population is not much.Especially during winter my dad opened all windows and used to play this song(Jim revees songs).Seeing winter fog engulfing the hill with Jim revees song is everlasting in our mind.
Christmas, Christmas, Christmas All is Christmas. I'm always excited when the yelutide come on, Blue, white Christmas all I cherish. Thanks to Jim Reeves for the solo Christmas song.
a lovely girl whose name I now forget, gave us her Jim Reeves Christmas Albumn our first year in NZ for Christmas. I have played it every Christmas for the next 37 years. I wonder where she is now..
I'm pretty sure that Elvis Presley's version of this song was the popular one, and I can understand if others prefer it. Many--perhaps most people--may be unaware that anyone besides Presley recorded it.
But as far as I'm concerned, Jim Reeves' version of 'Blue Christmas' is the most beautiful.

I had the pleasure of meeting Jim's Mother in her golden years. She lived with my Parents for a few months. What a Precious Woman of God.

The first version of this song that was popular was Ernest Tubb's version, in 1949. I think you can find it on You Tube.
