Αντίθετα με ότι νομίζουν κάποιοι, δεν πρόκειται για το original και τη διασκευή του, αλλά για δυο τραγούδια με τον ίδιο τίτλο, από ισάριθμους soul masters – ξεκινώντας με τον Stevie Wonder και το άλμπουμ του 1967 Someday At Christmas. Συντελεστές του τραγουδιού οι Anna Gaye, George Gordy, Allen Story. 16 χρόνια αργότερα (1983) κυκλοφορεί το άλμπουμ White Christmas του Al Green, απ’ όπου ακούμε (02:27) τη δική του εκδοχή για το νόημα των Χριστουγέννων, με το τραγούδι εδώ να υπογράφουν οι Mosea Dillard, Claude Hill, Sharon Michalsky, Chiquita Mullins (οι στίχοι του δεν ανευρίσκονται).
✻
Contrary to what some people think, this is not a case of an original and its cover version, but rather two completely different songs sharing the same title, performed by equally legendary soul masters – starting with Stevie Wonder and his 1967 album Someday at Christmas. The song’s writers are Anna Gaye, George Gordy, and Allen Story. Sixteen years later, in 1983, Al Green released the album White Christmas, from which we hear his own take (running time 2:27) on the meaning of Christmas. This version is credited to Mosea Dillard, Claude Hill, Sharon Michalsky, and Chiquita Mullins (whose lyrics cannot be found online).
