If Nat King Cole had sung The Wheels on the Bus it would have sounded amazing. Give him not only one of the best Christmas songs but one of the best songs period ever written and you get something really special. You could put this on a continuous loop for hours on end and I would not get sick of listening it. Also if any aspiring pop singers happen to read this please listen and note that it is possible to create a mesmerizing performance by simply singing a song in it's actual tune without embellishing it with an endless barrage of runs and flourishes. Show them how it's done Nat.
