I came across these in the issue dated 27th Dec 1969 in a special list of Xmas singles - how many still chart 50 years later? Quite a few...!

2. WHITE CHRISTMAS -Bing Crosby, Decca 23778

3. BLUE CHRISTMAS -Elvis Presley, RCA Victor 47 -0647

4. LITTLE DRUMMER BOY -Harry Simeone Chorale, 20th Century

11. SNOOPY'S CHRISTMAS -Royal Guardsmen, Laurie 3416

Thought Brenda Lee & Nat would have been just behind the top 2.

 

What is this the US chart?
