英语歌曲:Do You Hear What I Hear

Song: Do You Hear What I Hear Artist: Andy Willimas "Do You Hear What I Hear?" is a very popular Christmas song with a joyful beat and beautiful melodies. It is often played in the stores during the Christmas season. It has been covered by hundreds of artists. The song in my post was performed by Andy Williams who was a legendary American pop singer. When Ronald Reagan was president, he declared Andy's voice to be "a national treasure". According to Wikipedia, Noel Regney wrote the lyrics for the song, while Gloria Shayne composed the Christmas carol's music in October 1962. This was an unusual arrangement for the two writers. Usually it was Shayne who wrote the lyrics for their songs while Regney composed the music, as they did when they wrote a song based on the classic children's song "Rain Rain Go Away". Regney was inspired to write the lyrics "Said the night wind to the little lamb, 'Do you see what I see?'" and "Pray for peace, people everywhere", after watching babies being pushed in strollers on the sidewalks of New York City. Shayne stated in an interview years later that neither could personally perform the entire song at the time they wrote it because of the emotions surrounding the Cuban Missile Crisis.
