"Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!", also known as simply "Let It Snow",[1] is a song written by lyricist Sammy Cahn and composer Jule Styne in July 1945 in Hollywood, California, during a heatwave as Cahn and Styne imagined cooler conditions.[2][3] The song was first recorded that fall by Vaughn Monroe, was released just after Thanksgiving, and became a hit by Christmas.[4]

Other U.S. recordings during the 1945–46 winter season included those by Danny O'Neil (Majestic), Connee Boswell (Decca), Woody Herman (Columbia), and Bob Crosby (ARA).

The song makes no mention of any holiday. The lyrics include spending time with a loved one during a snowstorm, enjoying a fireplace and popcorn. When the singer has to leave, feelings of love will keep him warm once he is outside in the cold. The song has come to be regarded as a Christmas song worldwide due to its winter theme, and is often played on radio stations during the Christmas and holiday season. It has been covered by multiple artists on Christmas-themed albums.[5]

Vaughn Monroe version

In the U.S., the Monroe record charted higher—by several of Billboard magazine's measures—than has any successor. For 15 weeks, through 30 March 1946, it appeared in its "Honor Roll of Hits: The Nation’s Top 15 Tunes."[6] In the "Songs with Greatest Radio Audiences" category, it was listed for 16 weeks (again through 30 March 1946).[7] Of BillboardTemplate:'s "Top 15 Most Played on the Air," the Monroe recording charted for 13 weeks—five of them at #1 in January–February 1946.[8] In BillboardTemplate:'s "Best Selling Popular Retail Records" tabulation, it spent 13 weeks in the top ten (three weeks as #1).[9] Sheet music sales were similarly high during this period, spending 10 weeks in BillboardTemplate:'s top ten through 23 March 1946.[10]
