Oh my God! Not many people took my last poll but I forgot to publish the answer it required, so here it is: "White Christmas," indeed, is the best-selling Christmas song of all time.
By the way, La La Brooks (pictured above with Cousin Brucie and Darlene Love) sent this message out on Facebook tonight (Christmas night 2011):
Dear Facebook Family,
On this Christmas Day, I'd like to wish everyone a most joyous Holiday Season! I hope you are enjoying yourselves, spending time with friends and family, and looking forward to the coming new year.
At this time, I'd like to share a Chrismas card message which Phil Spector sent out one year in the sixties (my manager, Art, collector that he is, shared it with me):
Be Creative This Christmas
BUILD A SNOWMAN!
Snow Head
Snow Face
Snow Arms
Snow Legs
Be Extra Creative & Make Some
Snow Balls....
HAPPY HOLIDAYS
from
PHIL SPECTOR
HAVE A BALL,
LOVE, LA LA
