From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Burl Ives (1909–1995) was an American musician, actor, and author with a career that spanned more than six decades. He began as an itinerant singer and guitarist, eventually becoming a major star of CBS Radio. Ives was a film actor in the 1940s and 1950s, and in the 1960s had hits in country music. His voice-over work in Christmas specials contributed to his association with the Christmas season.

Holiday 100 chart entries

Since many radio stations in the US adopt a format change to Christmas music each December, many holiday hits have an annual spike in popularity during the last few weeks of the year and are retired once the season is over. [3] In December 2011, Billboard began a Holiday Songs chart with 50 positions that monitors the last five weeks of each year to "rank the top holiday hits of all eras using the same methodology as the Hot 100, blending streaming, airplay, and sales data", [4] and in 2013 the number of positions on the chart was doubled, resulting in the Holiday 100. [5] Two Ives recordings have made appearances on the Holiday 100 and are noted below according to the holiday season in which they charted there.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Burl Ives (1909–1995) was an American musician, actor, and author with a career that spanned more than six decades. He began as an itinerant singer and guitarist, eventually becoming a major star of CBS Radio. Ives was a film actor in the 1940s and 1950s, and in the 1960s had hits in country music. His voice-over work in Christmas specials contributed to his association with the Christmas season.

Holiday 100 chart entries

Since many radio stations in the US adopt a format change to Christmas music each December, many holiday hits have an annual spike in popularity during the last few weeks of the year and are retired once the season is over. [3] In December 2011, Billboard began a Holiday Songs chart with 50 positions that monitors the last five weeks of each year to "rank the top holiday hits of all eras using the same methodology as the Hot 100, blending streaming, airplay, and sales data", [4] and in 2013 the number of positions on the chart was doubled, resulting in the Holiday 100. [5] Two Ives recordings have made appearances on the Holiday 100 and are noted below according to the holiday season in which they charted there.
