The Christmas Song
Christmas in the Heart
2009
Columbia
Paroles
(Mel Torme, 1946)
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos.
Everybody knows a turkey
And some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys
And goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer
Really know how to fly.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said
Many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you.
Interprétation
Standard de Mel Tormé, chanté dans une veine de crooner. Le célèbre « chestnuts roasting on an open fire », écrit en 1945, est repris avec chaleur.
Cette reprise, fidèle à la tradition des crooners, montre Dylan endossant le costume de chanteur de Noël. Elle illustre sa connaissance intime du Great American Songbook.
