Hello Batchmates,
It would be a 'White Christmas' for quite a lot of you.
I have selected an appropriate song - it's history and its performance - on youtube link.
There are two versions the web-addresses of which I have shown below.
Please click on each of the 'youtube' links at the bottom of the words, separately.
The first link is a beautiful version with the words to sing along with.
I am sure all of you would sing along keeping in pace with the words.
Imagine that you are singing it along with your batchmates.
The second version is even better but there are no words which I am sure you will
know now by heart.

White Christmas !
The song White Christmas is undoubtedly the most famous and popular of all the Christmas songs. The music and lyrics for White Christmas were written by Irving Berlin in 1942 and originally featured in the movie Holiday Inn starring Bing Crosby. The lyrics of White Christmas struck a chord with the soldiers fighting in the Second World War and their families who were waiting for them back home. The song and recording of White Christmas by Bing Crosby with John Scott Trotter's orchestra and the Ken Darby Singers was so popular that it was later reprised in the movie called after its name - White Christmas. The film White Christmas once again starred Bing Crosby together with Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen.
