An all-time favorite Christmas web classic. The Drifters featuring Bill Pinkney and Clyde McPhatter - 1954 - Atlantic Recording Co. Cartoon by Joshua Held.
Thank you all for your beautiful comments and likes! It makes me happy to know I've made people a little merrier every year with this cartoon. Smiles and Merry Christmas to all!!! Joshua Held (cartoonist and animator).
JOSHUA - my late wife, the joy of my life, introduced me to this long ago and we LOVED it!!! So now, when I sing along with is as we did together, it brings so many warm memories!!! THANK you and Merry Christmas to you and to all who read this!!!
It's Clyde McPhatter's high-pitched tenor voice that makes this song. His voice was very strong for it being this high pitched and one of my favorites...
Absolutely adore this! Some friends came across it at our Christmas party and we were crying with laughter! Days later I found myself Poorly in bed and ask them to send it it and has bought much cheer and have sent on to friends and family Thank you!
I saw this and can remember showing my mam n dad it at my sisters on Christmas day quite a few years back. We all loved and laughed along to it and it brings back some lovely memories. I can't stop smiling when I watch this its just a joy.
On the last day of school before winter holidays, our geography teacher randomly showed us this video because her powerpoint wasn't working. When the whole class was watching this, she looked so happy and bright it was actually cute.
My wife and I first saw this video a couple of years ago. Now it's one of our Christmas favorites. The Drifters are one of the great Doo Wop groups from the 50s. Unlike a lot of holiday music this always makes us smile. Thanks Drifters!
Oh Thank you for a blast from the past, people whose songs I grew up dancing to in Detroit,Michigan in the 50s & 60s. What a wonderful compilation, thank you!
I thought they'd all get fed up after about 10 years of this video. But they don't. They just want to know where it is if I don't send it. Great!! But you have to admit ... it couldn't be better.
Like many here, I am sending this cartoon as a Christmas card to family and friends. It puts smiles on their faces and makes us forget the pandemic for a few minutes.
'Best version EVER done... I get happy an' feel all warm an' in the Christmas mood every time I hear it... It was used in "Home Alone" ... as I learned the other night when I watched that fun Christmas movie for the umpteenth time...

I love it when Santa points to a reindeer to take the lead, then nods his head while he's singing. LOL
All while he’s grinning 😁
And a little ankle Acton. 😏

It just ain't Christmas if I can't see this at least once during the season.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.
I can't imagine anyone not liking this toon.
Deb you are so right....nowadays it's very scary with crazy people shooting and stealing.....
Those are the kind of people that if you gave them a pot of gold would complain it's too heavy.
I listen to this every year, not Christmas without it!
It's not Christmas without this terrific rendition! In memory of Jimmy..he loved this!!
