Jule Styne (December 31, 1905 September 20, 1994) was a British-born American songwriter especially famous for a series of Broadway Musicals, which included several very well known and frequently revived shows. "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!", also known as "Let It Snow", is a song written by lyricist Sammy Cahn and composer Jule Styne in 1945. It was written in July 1945 in Hollywood, California during one of the hottest days on record.
First recorded by Vaughn Monroe, it became a popular hit, reaching number one on the Billboard music chart the following year. One of the best-selling songs of all time, "Let It Snow!" has been covered countless times. Due to its seasonal lyrics, it is commonly regarded as a Christmas song. Yet despite its cheery, holiday feel, it is a love song that never mentions Christmas.
Frank Sinatra's performance of the song was the 25,000,000th download from Apple's online music service iTunes.
Sinatra's fellow Rat Pack alumni, Dean Martin, recorded a version, which was used as the credits song during the first two Die Hard films, both set during Christmas Eves.
Jessica Simpson's version, recorded for her.
