The Voice charted with this holiday tune in December 1963 that seems more country in retrospect; indeed, it's country folk who do covers of this Willie Nelson tune nowadays. Nevertheless, a must-hear at Christmas time if you're a fan of the other man in black. Roy Orbison never cut anything else Christmas-oriented as far as I can tell, and though this charted it didn't seem to loom large in his discography. But given the man's four-decade string of much bigger hits, that's not particularly surprising.
