Who is the original author of Christmas songs?
The popular Christmas song A Christmas Song has a history of more than 60 years. Many people may not know that this song, which brought warmth to people in the cold winter in the northern hemisphere, was written in the hot summer. The purpose of the author's creation of this song is to cool off the heat.

The songwriters are American musicians Mel Tolmer and Bob Wells. Dale Izz, the song copyright manager, said that Tolmer had been to Wells' home in Los Angeles in July 1944. It took them only 40 minutes to write the lyrics of a Christmas song. This song has a beautiful melody, and the lyrics create a warm atmosphere for family reunion in winter to welcome the festive season.

Jingle Bells is probably the most familiar Christmas song. But this song was not originally written for Christmas, but for Thanksgiving.

This song was first performed in the Austrian country church, and then went to the world.
