The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

December 24, 2012 By Suzanne 3 Comments

Song of the Day: All I Want For Christmas Is You / A Christmas Love Song

On the Eleventh Day of Tony Bennett Christmas, Monday, December 24, 2012, the song of the day is All I Want For Christmas Is You.

About All I Want For Christmas Is You

This is not the Mariah Carey Love Actually song. Nor is it the Vince Vance and the Valiants song from 1993 or the song written by A.C. Williams and sung by Carla Thomas.

This is, instead, the elegant song with music by Johnny Mandel and lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman.  It often goes by the name A Christmas Love Song.

About This Version

Tony Bennett recorded this song for the 2008 A Swingin’ Christmas album.

All I Want for Christmas Is You (feat. Count Basie Big Band)

Listen to All I Want for Christmas Is You (feat. Count Basie Big Band) on Spotify. Song · Tony Bennett, Count Basie Big Band · 2008

All I Want For Christmas Is You / A Christmas Love Song, as well as the full A Swingin\’ Christmas, is available from iTunes.
