chocolatechip15 Posted October 9, 2012 at 11:54 PM Posted October 9, 2012 at 11:54 PM Wrong thread?? I'm confused - why was this in the wrong thread? The original post listed several versions of Do You Hear What I Hear, saying that Bing Crosby made it famous, and then linked to Celine's version. I was just adding Whitney's version, which I think is even more famous than Bing Crosby's (every year, I hear Whitney's played over and over on the radio; rarely hear the others). Quote

Well, I try to post in general only the original and Celine's version. In some exceptional cases, f.ex. if a cover became a real worldwide superhit or signature song as it was with "Do you Hear", which became a major hit of Bing Crosby all over the world at that time, I post other versions too. Sorry to say, but Whitney's version was just one version of very many. In Europe, f.ex. Whitney's version isn't very common. No hard feelings! Quote
