[White Christmas]

interesting that Crosby's re-release hit the market in the same year.
Evidently a real popular song in fall of 1949, as it was in 1940! Not
bad for a song that Berlin never figured would "hit."


I'm even weaker on movies than I am on popular music. Did the movie
make another cycle around 1949 (perhaps prompting the re-release and
the Tubb recording)? I remember seeing the movie as a kid, but I was
born in 1943, so I know I didn't see the first release, but by 1949 I
would have been old enough to really watch a movie and at that age I
probably wouldn't have been bored with White Christmas. Today I would.
