Billy Eckstine

William Clarence Eckstine (July 8, 1914 – March 8, 1993) was an American singer of ballads and a bandleader of the swing era. Eckstine's smooth baritone and distinctive vibrato broke down barriers throughout the 1940s, first as leader of the original bop big-band, then as the first romantic black male in popular music. Eckstine's recording of "I Apologize" (MGM Pop Single, 1948) was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999. more »

There's candle in the window
There's a legend we believe
Santa, here's our plea
You can bet that he wouldn't miss a Christmas Eve

There's a stocking on the fireplace
There are presents to receive
And there's mistletoe where is Romeo
Steals a kiss on Christmas Eve

In the corner on a table
Underneath a shining star
Is the holy Christmas stable
And three wise men from afar

All this holiday contemptment
All this love should never leave
We'd be doing right if we made each night
More like Christmas eve

In the corner on a table
Underneath a shining star
Is the holy Christmas stable
And three wise men from afar

All this holiday contemptment
All this love should never leave
We'd be doing right if we made each night
More like Christmas eve
