Christmas in New York

"Christmas in New York" is a Christmas song written by Billy Butt at the piano of the Church of Sweden in New York in 1979.[1] It was recorded by John Wesley Shipp and released as a single in 1982, with "The Christmas Song" on its B-side.[2]

The English-language version was performed annually between 1986 and 2002 by The Rockettes during the Radio City Christmas Spectacular in New York City.[3] Lyrically, the song describes New York City in Christmas time.[4] It was recorded by Loa Falkman, as "It's Christmas in New York", on his 1990 Christmas album Julstämning.[5] US jazz singer Linda Bianchi covered it on her 2009 Christmas album, Christmas in New York.[6]
