Old Christmas song question:

[Frank Gannucci]

Up until 2006 when me and my family had a garage sale and moved, my parents had a cassette tape that included old versions of Christmas songs. I remember listening to it. One song at the end had someone say something along the lines of this: “It’s Christmas Eve 1945…” I may have gotten the year wrong but does anyone know what song this was and what CD, tape, website that it’s on? The person who said that MIGHT have been Perry Como.

Lyrics from a song:


Moonlight shining on the mistletoe
Carols singing in the snow
Soon will come the finest hour I know
It's Christmas eve

Candles lighting windows everywhere
Season's greetings fill the air
Santa travelling every thoroughfare
It's Christmas eve

There's a legend that some wise men say is true
Fall in love on Christmas eve and love lasts your whole life through
Winter evening of the holy birth
Night time full of joy and mirth
Goodwill to all and peace on earth
It's Christmas eve

Goodwill to all and peace on earth
It's Christmas eve.

Thanks but the part where he says: “It’s Christmas Eve 19??” He doesn’t sing it. It’s like he’s talking to his listeners.
