Wonderland Burlesque's The Twelve Days Before Xmas - Day Five: Jing a Ling, Jing a Ling - The Andrew Sisters

Wonderland Burlesque's
The Twelve Days Before Xmas
 Day Five:
Jing-A-Ling, Jing-A-Ling - The Andrew Sisters

Ha, ha! Ho, ho!

Oh, my word! If you have a bit of a hangover, do not listen to this song!

It's like a barrel of chipmunks suddenly got the Xmas spirit after paying a visit to Tammy Wynette's medicine cabinet.

Yes, it's that marvelous, magical mirth, the kind only the harmonies of The Andrew Sisters could produce.

Jing-A-Ling, Jing-A-Ling - The Andrew Sisters

Jing-A-Ling, Jing-A-Ling, based on the melody from Walt Disney's Beaver Valley, was written by  by Paul J. Smith and Don Raye and sung by The Andrews Sisters with music by Vic Schoen and His Orchestra. Recorded on 9/15/1950, it was released on Decca as single L 5841 that same year.

The big day is here in only seven more days!

I've always liked their sound! The play "Over Here" is a fav because of that very thing.

I love it!!!!! The fun nostalgia that brings back memories from my grandmother's house at Christmas. I just wonder how much coffee they had before recording this.
