I was born in 53, this wonderful voice and song has been part of every Christmas since. A hippo ornament still hangs on our Christmas tree. The song rings out in our home every Christmas, thank you Gayla

Gayla was only 10 years old at the time, but today she's 81 (2024).

I've heard this song every year for the last 45 or 48 that I can remember...and I had never seen this video. Bodacious.

Christmas will never be the same as when we were young.

[JoeMedrek]

What a beautiful voice for 73 years old 😆

It’s October and I’m listening to Christmas songs what has my life become

[judygarland]

It’s 4am and it’s the middle of June and I’m listening to Christmas music 🥰😂

[whitesentinix]

her singing as a kid was cute... but her still having that (slightly more mature) voice at 73 is PHENOMENAL.

[apieceofshit]

Is it just me that likes the sound of the voices in these old 1940-1980 music videos?

[blockbusstar]

When she was young she sounded like an older women. When she turned old she sounded like a little girl hahahahaLove this

[chloestany]

We are still listening in 2024 and still love this song!

[starsou]

Wow! She still sounds so young singing at her older age.

[Binxisfamous]

When she was younger she was adorable and when she's older she's beautiful x3

[DontCareBeare.]

Who else is listening to this in December 2021?

[reneec]

Amazing voice for a child. Crazy she can still sing. Really talented

[markcromer]

I wonder how many times she has sung the song over the years.

[lordbarberwigg]

Poor thing...60 years later and she's still waiting on that dang Hippo!
