- Arguably one of the most popular holiday songs, “Jingle Bells” wasn’t even originally written for Christmas time. James Lord Pierpont wrote it in the 1850s, and it was originally titled “The One Horse Open Sleigh.” It was meant to be a Thanksgiving song until it grew in popularity as a Yuletide tune.

With Don Henley taking lead vocals, Eagles’ 1978 version peaked at No.18 on the Hot 100, the first Ch...

Blondie re-released the tune in 2021, shining a light...
