Music<\/a> de la f\u00eate de Christmas<\/a><\/p>\n

Origin of the Song<\/p>\n

Dansons autour du vert sapin is the French version of Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree, composed in 1958 by Johnny Marks. It was first performed and recorded by Brenda Lee that same year, when she was only 14 years old. However, it took two years for the song to start selling well. The popularity of the famous Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree coincided with that of the singer.<\/p>\n

\"Christmas<\/a>So it was in 1960, during the holiday season, that the song took off and reached number 16 on the Billboard charts. It quickly became a Christmas favorite and continued to sell well for the next quarter of a decade, even reaching number 5 in 1984 on the Christmas songs chart.<\/p>\n

In the early 1960s, another version was recorded by Alvin and the Chipmunks. However, this cover was not a hit and was not even played on radio stations. Brenda Lee, with her version, thus occupied the airwaves for about thirty years.<\/p>\n

In 1992, Ronnie Spector and Darlene Love recorded the song for an album called "A Very Special Christmas Volume 2." This version, like all of Darlene Love's songs, was a huge success.<\/p>\n

Although the Vienna Boys Choir, Cyndi Lauper, Miley Cyrus\/Hanna Montana, and the Hansons also performed "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," Brenda Lee's version remains the most popular of all time.<\/p>\n

The French version is also known as "Dansons autour du sapin vert" and "Danser autour du sapin vert." The most frequently broadcast version in recent years is undoubtedly that of Marie-\u00c9laine Thibert.<\/p>\n

Lyrics French version<\/strong>
\nDancing around the green fir tree
\nClapping hands
\nDancing around the green fir tree
\nAnd sing until morning<\/p>\n

Throwing streamers everywhere
\nTaking up the choruses
\nAnd kiss in front of a witness
\nUnder the mistletoe or in the woods<\/p>\n

You'll get a little shiver down your spine
\nSeeing the decorated tree filled with gifts<\/p>\n

Dancing around the green fir tree
\nClapping hands
\nAnd kiss in front of a witness
\nUnder the mistletoe or in the woods<\/p>\n

You'll get a little shiver down your spine
\nSeeing the decorated tree filled with gifts<\/p>\n

Dancing around the green fir tree
\nClapping hands
\nDancing around the green fir tree<\/p>\n

English version lyrics<\/p>\n

Rocking around the Christmas Tree
\nat the Christmas party hop
\nMistletoe hung where you can see
\nEvery couple tries to stop<\/p>\n

You will get a sentimental feeling When you hear voices singing
\n\u201cLet\u2019s be jolly; Deck the halls with boughs of holly \u00bb Rocking around the Christmas Tree
\nHave a happy holiday
\nEveryone's dancing merrily
\nIn a new old fashioned way<\/p>\n

Rocking around the Christmas Tree
\nLet the Christmas Spirit ring
\nLater we'll have some pumpkin pie
\nand we'll do some caroling<\/p>\n

You will get a sentimental feeling When you hear voices singing
\n\u201cLet\u2019s be jolly; Deck the halls with boughs of holly \u00bb
\nRocking around the Christmas Tree
\nHave a happy holiday
\nEveryone's dancing merrily
\nIn a new old fashioned way<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
