Elle diff\u00e8re quelque peu des chants traditionnels de No\u00ebl, puisque les paroles mentionnent la tenue d\u2019un festival se d\u00e9roulant dans une ville, alors que dans la plupart des autres chansons festives, la sc\u00e8ne a presque toujours lieu dans un milieu rural. Qui plus est, fait particulier, Silver Bells a bien failli ne jamais voir le jour. En effet, l\u2019\u00e9pouse de Ray Evans, offusqu\u00e9e par le titre et les paroles, lesquels font tous deux r\u00e9f\u00e9rence \u00e0 Tinkle Bells (tintement de cloches), s\u2019opposait \u00e0 sa publication. <\/p>\n<p>It should be noted that in English, the word Tinkle can have a double meaning, and can be translated as a slang used by children to refer to the act of urinating. However, Ray Evans, although he admitted that there could be some confusion, decided, despite his wife&#039;s warning, not to change either the lyrics or the title. This is fortunate, because this song has enjoyed immense popularity, and even today, it is one of those traditional songs that is commonly played during the holiday season.<\/p>\n<p>Inspired by the Salvation Army bell ringers, Livingston and Evans were right to release Silver Bells, as the first version, recorded by Bing Crosby and Carole Richard in October 1950, quickly shot up the charts. Other successful versions include those recorded by Diana Ross and The Supremes, Jim Reeves, Elvis Presley, Andy Williams, Anne Murray, Brenda Lee, and Burl Ives.<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/p_OOR8R5D9A\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Youtube video<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"420\" height=\"315\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/H4mkRR4oJNM\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Youtube video<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"420\" height=\"315\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Sxalfi5zfnw\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Youtube video<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"420\" height=\"315\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yPBivcFlKs4\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Youtube video<\/p>\n<p>Words<\/p>\n<p>City side walks, busy side walks<br \/>\nDressed in holiday style<br \/>\nIn the air there&#039;s a feeling of Christmas<br \/>\nChildren laughing<br \/>\nPeople passing<br \/>\nMeeting smile after smile<br \/>\nAnd in every corner you&#039;ll hear<\/p>\n<p>Silver Bells<br \/>\nSilver Bells<br \/>\nIt&#039;s Christmas time in the city<br \/>\nRing a ling hear them ring<br \/>\nSoon it will be Christmas Day<\/p>\n<p>Strings of street lights<br \/>\nEven stop lights<br \/>\nBlink a bright red and green<br \/>\nAs the shoppers rush home with their treasures<br \/>\nHear the snow crunch<br \/>\nSee the kids bunch<br \/>\nThis is Santa&#039;s big seen<br \/>\nAnd above all the bustle you&#039;ll hear<\/p>\n<p>Silver Bells<br \/>\nSilver Bells<br \/>\nIt&#039;s Christmas time in the city<br \/>\nRing a ling hear them ring<br \/>\nSoon it will be Christmas Day<br \/>\nSoon it will be Christmas Day<\/p>\n<p>Christmas Day<br \/>\nSilver bells<br \/>\nSilver bells<br \/>\nSilver bells <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Silver Bells, a popular Christmas song, is the joint work of American composer Jay Livingston and lyricist Ray Evans.
