The Eighth Day of Christmas: The Christmas Song

Another Christmas song written by a Jewish fellow. Mel Torme wrote this. 

Here is my recording of it.

Here the composer sings it on TV with Judy Garland  --- Do you suppose she intentionally substituted "rainbows" for "reindeers" ? --- with some scat and harmonies and other extra stuff:

The Christmas Song (Mel & Judy)



Here Ricky Nelson sings it on the old Ozzie and Harriet show:

And here's the one we listen to while decorating the tree almost every year:
