First time I've heard all these Christmas songs. They are absolutely awesome. I will too have a blue Christmas, but this song will make me feel wanted and loved and cared for !
Brian's voice was simply gorgeous in those days; he could sing literally, anything. This makes me so sad, thinking of that voice--& those days. They went by, so fast. Wolfsky9.
I hate the Elvis version. There's no sadness in it and its supposed to be a sad song. Brain Wilson (its his first solo song btw) brings out the lonliness of the lyrics.
Thats one of the best christmas albums along with phil spector ,nat cole ,4 seasons , ventures...[ I usually listen to the beach boys christmas album in the summer to cool off along with symphony antartica ] .
Hi. It's Brian. No doubt about it. Though Carl, at least later in his career, could have done it probably just as well. And I do agree that Carl had perfect pitch and, wow, did he also have a voice!
No big deal. There is a genetic similarity. Carl's voice was definitely after the 70's purer and in better shape after the 70's and drug abuse nearly ruined Brian's voice, a great tragedy. Surely he did a marvelous job on this song.
love brian..play their cd every christmas....

i sometimes get them mixed up since Carl covered for Brian when he was out of commission.
