E' una delle più classiche canzoni americane dedicate al Natale. Scritta nel 1951, fu portata al successo da Pery Como e cantata dai maggiori interpreti degli anni '50, tra cui Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby e Dean Martin.Ha avuto un rinnovato successo nel 1992 quando è stata riarrangiata e interpretata da Johnny Mathis per il film Home Alone 2 - Lost in New York (in Italia: Mamma ho perso l'aereo 2).It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev'rywhere you go; Take a look in the five and ten glistening once again With candy canes and silver lanes aglow. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Toys in ev'ry store But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be On your own front door. A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben; Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Is the hope of Janice and Jen; And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev'rywhere you go; There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well, The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas; Soon the bells will start, And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing Right within your heart.Questa è la classica
