Adeste Fideles
Crosby Bing Lyrics

@QWZXM

My Mother who died at age 97 in 2003-loved Bing Crosby- i still have his Christmas long playing record. No one can do White Christmas like Bing nor this one :Oh come all Ye Faithful. I am not really a church going person, but Midnight service on Christmas eve in my small Newfoundland town, the choir would do this one as their opening carol and a Parade through a church packed with people How times have changed.

@GentleHeart001

Its just not Christmas without Bing singing.

@xlerb2286

One of the songs I remember from Christmases as a child. Every year Mom & Dad would get out the "Christmas music" and this was always one of our favorites. They were both born in the 20's so they were very familiar with Bing Crosby and other singers from that era. They've both been gone for a few years now and I sure do miss them, especially when something like this reminds me of all the good times, and I was very fortunate, there were only good times and good memories growing up.

@TJ-wg3ud

This year I have been trying not to listen to any commercial Christmas songs and listening only to Christmas songs about Christ and I think this is the first year that I truly understood Christmas. All of the money we spend, the crowds at the stores, the traffic and the long hours cooking aren’t for santa, we do this to celebrate the birth of our savior.

@Godlovethepilot

Well that's true isn't it!

@tomgreenough3235

A voice as clear and crisp as the falling snow at night.

@teresatibai5290

I can't listen to this song without picturing Bing Crosby as Father O'Malley singing this.

@a1b2c3d4e5f699

My dad always said that no one could sing like Bing Crosby. How right he was. A true legend.

@jimmmy1941

Kathleen Heintz
My dad never liked Bing.  He said he owed him money or something.

@Avengies

+IAN KERMAN In my opinion Bing Crosby has the best male singing voice of all time. Although I think Andy Williams has a wonderful voice as well.

@maryjaneprouty7498

+IAN KERMAN  Bing was my mother's favorite, too.

@lilyemmalindsay9025

idk if Bing was my dad's favorite but I think he listened to Frank Sinatra & the rat pack.

@GlenQuagmireful

Your dad was a very wise man. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

@jasonblack4208

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that beautiful coloratura soprano singing the descant line? Sure purity of sound singing such an under-utilized harmonic line.

@anthonyfinojr7503

Christmas 2023 is coming! This song from Bing gives me goosebumps. I like his singing. I will be 49 this month in November. Since I was a child, I grew up listening to Bing Crosby's Christmas songs in my house. In my opinion, he is the King of Christmas Music!

@bkguy35

I’m not even from this generation...my mom loved him. He is one of the greatest singers ever. Suave and relaxed with style and grace, yet presented with such beautiful music. Not to mention a great crooner

@pink73floyd

This is one of the most peaceful Christmas songs I've ever heard.

@helljumper82nd83

Every time my great uncle listen to this song it brings him to tears because he thinks of Christmas Day in the battle of the bulge because he was the 1 out of 3 survivors of his company during ww2

@kimberlyolson6779

My father in law was a staff Sgt in the 4th Armored Division, he is my hero.

@tomtimmons515

Hell Jumper 82nd


It began today, and my father was there on the line when the tanks came through the woods. He called for artillery to rain down fire on his own position, which was also the enemy position. His call was denied as no Germans were thought to be in the area. He was able to attack in the opposite direction and live to fight another day in the Rhineland then in Central Germany, then on to victory.

@THEME-SICKLE

Was his squad captured by Germans by chance and dumped in a field? Because my grandfather says his squad was captured and only 3 survived as well.

@battlehammer4388

@helljumper82nd83

@maryjaneprouty7498

I especially like format with Latin and English. My family owned this record in the '40s We had listened to it on radio often and in the later '40s after WWIl my mom bought us a victrola and this album for Christmas.

@taldhesi3569

mary jane Prouty wow ;-)

@maryjaneprouty7498

+Tal Dhesi   Thank you

@adamkurowski1934

We have a record from early 90s and even though we moved on from DVDs, we still put Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Dean Martin Christmas compilation on loop for 2 weeks before and after Christmas :)

@elwoodblues9613

I found that 10-incher in a store on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley. It's now a prized possession in my large record collection, and gets played every Christmas.

@docholiday8308

I had to learn this in Latin Class later I had to sing it in church in Latin on Christmas Eve. I have loved it in Latin ever since.

@michaelbayer5094

The Mass in English was introduced one year before I started grade school so I have no memory of the Mass in Latin and would never want to attend Mass in a foreign language where I could not participate. However, I do like this little bit of Latin, and I think it was the same on Crosby's old album.

@danielpicha630

Praise the MOST HIGH and this beautiful version.

@cricketbat09

Bing sings this on a compilation CD of his 1940s radio shows, which I bought a few years back, and play every Christmas. His voice has a timeless quality.

@cindygee5481

My Uncle Pete Halling had the voice of an angel...one of my earliest Christmas memories is of him singing this at Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve.

@alangentile3644

This reminds me when I was a child. Born in 1994. I was Raised right That's a good Christmas Day's Bing Crosby

@nancymcgarrity3648

Bing is Christmas ,plus family and faith. Sinatra once said ' Bing can sing in his sleep'

@kimberlyolson6779

How many can remember singing the Latin version in Catholic school?

@bevil4aday

Not in Catholic School, but certainly during Christmas Mass.

@QWZXM

It;s been the Processional Christmas Eve Hymn in St. Alban's Anglican Church, Badger's quay, Newfoundland since I've been old enough to remember.Tonight was no exception. I am use to Midnight services , tonight it was 7 pm. Merry Christmas all.

We learned this in Latin in public school in Dallas, Texas, in the 50’s ... before the Supreme Court made God Unconstitutional.

@lucyflorey9152

@ in our small school in central Illinois we had Latin until our teacher retired. This was on our list of songs to learn at Christmas. Good memories from Latin class. When I studied Spanish and French later, because I had had Latin, those other language classes were easy.

@EW-go1xw

@@lucyflorey9152 same here 😉👍. We learned the entire version (the version Pavarotti sings) in Classical Latin class at our public high school. But that was after learning the rosary in Latin in Catholic homeschool. Happy holidays! 🤶

@joebeutner6538

My favorite Christmas album of all time...Elvis' is pretty great .too!

@manuelsares5206

Como olvidar este tema?. Era un simple en pasta que resonaba en el entonces flamante combinado General Eléctrica, y era un regalo por la compra del mismo. Vértice Musical se llamaba esa casa. Y este disco de regalo tenía dos temas de Bingo Crosby, imposible mejorarlos. Escucharlo ahora nos lleva a las navidades de nuestra niñez.

@kimberlyolson6779

In parochial school I remember Sister Maria teaching us to sing in Latin to this song...It's one of my all time favorites.

@christianhafer9819

Who sings Christmas songs better than the Bingster? I say no one.

@robertmcginness4610

I'm happy for you but I'm in mid 70's and never had a family. There have been terrible years, including slavery for me in America. But I love God sang in the choir, could kill this song, easily, but these beautiful songs always brighter my heart ♥ during Christmas time. Love in Jesus. God bless you.
