NYC is frozen solid again — even the mayor’s hot air couldn’t warm us up
It’s snow going in the city
We’re snowed in again, and I’m back humming, “Let It Snow.”
1945. California was having a heat wave. So USA’s hotshot songwriters — Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne — knocked off a little tune while the locals were lapping up the seltzer in their pools.
1945, Vaughn Monroe recorded the thing.
In 1950, Frank Sinatra made a version. Then, 1959, Dean Martin made it a falldown hit.
First verse: “The weather outside is frightful / But the fire is so delightful / And since we’ve no place to go / Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.”
