Jingle Bells est l\u2019un des chants de Christmas<\/a> les plus connus \u00e0 travers le monde, et dont James Lord Pierpont, compositeur et organiste am\u00e9ricain, en est l\u2019auteur.\u00a0Le c\u00e9l\u00e8bre Jingle Bells a \u00e9t\u00e9 compos\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019ancienne Taverne Simpson de Medford au Massachussetts, aujourd\u2019hui devenue le 19 High Street du Medford Square. D\u2019ailleurs, une plaque comm\u00e9morative orne toujours le c\u00f4t\u00e9 du b\u00e2timent, sur laquelle on peut y lire en gros titres \u00ab\u00a0Jingle Bells composed here\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n

The song was originally titled "The One Horse Open Sleigh." According to the Medford Historical Society, Pierpont was inspired by the sleigh races that were popular in the city in the 1800s. It wasn't until September 16, 1857, that the title was changed to its current one.<\/p>\n

In 1898, Jingle Bells was first recorded on a phonograph cylinder by the Edison Male Quartette, as part of a Christmas medley called "Sleigh Ride Party." For the sake of argument, the phonograph cylinder was the first commercially available method for recording and reproducing sound.<\/p>\n

In 1943, the late Bing Crosby and the Andrew Sisters recorded Jingle Bells, which sold over a million copies. Previously, Benny Goodman and the Glenn Miller Orchestra had also had success with the song, reaching number 18 respectively.e<\/sup> and the 5e<\/sup> position in the charts. Then, in 1948, it was adapted into French by Francis Blanche, who then gave it the title Vive le vent.<\/p>\n

In France, this adaptation of Vive le vent is very popular and several singers have performed it, including Mireille Mathieu, Dalida and Thierry Gali, the new darling of children.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jingle Bells has also been performed and recorded by Perry Como, Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, Elvis Preslye, Duke Ellington, Oscar Peterson, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Diana Krall, Boney M, to name a few.<\/p>\n

Jingle Bells a aussi fait l\u2019objet d\u2019une m\u00e9morable plaisanterie depuis l\u2019espace. En 1965, histoire de s\u2019amuser, l\u2019astronaute Walter M. Schirra Jr., alors commandant de la mission Gemini 6, avait improvis\u00e9 toute une mise en sc\u00e8ne avec l\u2019aide de son compagnon de vol Thomas Stafford. Ce dernier, connu pour son s\u00e9rieux, avait alors annonc\u00e9 l\u2019apparition d\u2019un OVNI, et les deux hommes avaient fait durer le suspense pendant de longues minutes, avant de d\u00e9clarer qu\u2019il s\u2019agissait en fait du Santa Claus<\/a> \u00e0 bord de son tra\u00eeneau. La farce s\u2019\u00e9tait termin\u00e9e avec les premi\u00e8res notes de Jingle Bells jou\u00e9es par Schirra sur son harmonica, alors que Stafford avait agit\u00e9 des clochettes.<\/p>\n

English version lyrics<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dashing through the snow,
\nin a one-horse open sleigh
\nOver the fields we go,
\nLaughing all the way;
\nBells on bob tail ring,
\nMaking spirits bright
\nWhat fun it is to ride and sing
\nA sleighing song tonight!<\/p>\n

Refrain
\nJingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
\nO What fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh,
\nJingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
\nO What fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.<\/p>\n

A day or two ago
\nI thought I'd take a ride,
\nAnd soon, Miss Fanny Bright
\nWas seated by my side.
\nThe horse was lean and lank,
\nMisfortune seemed his lot,
\nHe got into a drifted bank
\nAnd then we got upsot.<\/p>\n

Refrain<\/p>\n

A day or two ago,
\nThe story I must tell
\nI went out on the snow,
\nAnd on my back I fell;
\nA gent was riding by
\nIn a one-horse open sleigh,
\nHe laughed as there I sprawled lie,
\nBut quickly drove away.<\/p>\n

Refrain<\/p>\n

Now the ground is white,
\nGo it while you're young;
\nTake the girls tonight,
\nAnd sing this sleighing song;
\nJust get a bob tailed bay,
\nTwo-forty as his speed,
\nHitch him to an open sleigh
\nAnd crack! you'll take the lead<\/p>\n

Lyrics French version<\/strong><\/p>\n

On the long road
\nAll white with snow white
\nAn old gentleman comes forward
\nWith his cane in his hand
\nAnd up there the wind
\nWho whistles in the branches
\nHe whispers romance to him
\nThat he sang as a little child<\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/p>\n

Long live the wind, long live the wind
\nLong live the winter wind
\nWho goes away whistling, blowing
\nIn the tall green fir trees
\nOh! Long live time, long live time!
\nLong live winter weather
\nSnowball and New Year's Day
\nAnd Happy New Year Grandma<\/p>\n

Merry, Merry Christmas
\nBy the thousand candles
\nWhen they sing to the sky
\nThe Bells of the Night
\nOh! Long live the wind, long live the wind
\nLong live the winter wind
\nWho reports to old children
\nTheir winter memories<\/p>\n

And the old gentleman
\nGo down to the village,
\nIt's the time when everything is wise
\nAnd the shadow dances by the fire
\nBut in every house
\nThere is a festive air in the air
\nEverywhere the table is ready
\nAnd we hear the same song<\/p>\n

Refrain<\/p>\n

Snowball and New Year's Day
\nAnd Happy New Year, Grandma!
\nLong live the winter wind!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
