Hope For Christmas

I’ve always enjoyed Silver Bells, but it wasn’t until I did a little research that I found Bob Hope, along with Marilyn Maxwell, was actually responsible for helping to make this a classic with The Lemon Drop Kid. The movie is beyond cheesy, but this particular song? LOVE.

There’s something about a song made for harmony that always draws me in… Tell me it isn’t a bit strange to see Bob Hope looking so young and spry.

    awwww I remember this movie, though Bob’s beard looks like he’s been in too much of a soapy bath! Wouldn’t it be nice for people to burst into song as they walk along 🙂 x
