Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth  – Bing Crosby & David Bowie

Little Drummer Boy is a familiar tune that many musicians have covered, but David Bowie and Bing Crosby’s version still remains the definitive version.  With the addition of the Peace on Earth part, it’s a simple, heart-felt Christmas song that is brought to life by this unlikely pairing.  A beautifully harmonious track that invokes thought and a desire to give and serve others.

This Yuletide classic still provides an excellent soundtrack for nearly any festive activity.
