John Frederick Coots and Haven Gillespie wrote this evergreen back in the early 30s and it has been recorded countless times. In 1970 it became a memorable Rankin-Bass special with Fred Astaire providing the voice of Santa Claus. The version posted here is by a Danish cover band called the Rubber band. A few years back they recorded a disc of Christmas classics under the name The Beatmas. Basically, Christmas songs done Beatles style. Every Christmas song sounds like a specific Beatles song. It is one of the more entertaining Christmas discs I own. The disc is hard to find now though if you go to google you might be able to track one down. You could also try:

Without further ado, Ed Sullivan Style Hear Are.....The Beatmas!
