Christmas Countdown #5
“Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” by BRENDA LEE
“Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” is a festive and upbeat Christmas song (written by Johnny Marks) and recorded by Brenda Lee (in 1958), when she was just 13 years old.
Lee’s version features a lively melody that captures the joyful and celebratory atmosphere of the holiday season. The song describes the scene of people coming together, dancing, and having a good time around the Christmas tree.
In 1990, this version experienced a big resurgence in popularity after its appearance in the holiday film, “Home Alone”.
