This enduringly popular seasonal song has long been a Christmas favourite even though the lyrics don?t mention ?Christmas? at all. The words were by Dick Smith (1901-1935) and the music by Felix Bernard (1897-1944). The inspiration was reportedly a visit by Smith to Honesdale?s (his hometown) Central Park when it was covered in snow.The first recording was made by Richard Himber?s Ritz-Carlton Orchestra in 1934. The same year Guy Lombardo and his band The Royal Canadians took the song to number 2 in the US Billboard Chart where it stayed for 9 weeks. It has since been recorded by over 150 artists the most successful versionsbeing by Perry Como and the Andrews Sisters both released in 1946.
