Another archive French Christmas hit, this time by Charles Trenet, one of France's most famous singers of the 20th century.
The song was originally released in 1956.
Trenet is probably best known for his hit La Mer, which became known to an English speaking audience under the title Beyond The Sea.
His career, however, began before the Second World War, eventually retiring from singing in 1975.
He however returned in 1981, making occasional re-appearances and recordings, and album emerging in 1999 entitled Les poètes descendent dans la rue.
He eventually died in 2001, a true legend of old school French chanson.
