Info: "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" is an English Christmas carol. The famous version of the carol is from the English West Country.

The Bristol-based composer, conductor and organist Arthur Warrell (1883�1939) is responsible for the popularity of the carol. Warrell, a lecturer at the University of Bristol from 1909, arranged the tune for his own University of Bristol Madrigal Singers as an elaborate four-part arrangement, which he performed with them in concert on December 6, 1935. His composition was published by Oxford University Press the same year under the title "A Merry Christmas: West Country traditional song"

Appeared on Xmas album 2005 and Born To Be in 1968

Melanie Anne Safka Schekeryk (February 3, 1947 � January 23, 2024), professionally known as Melanie or Melanie Safka, was an American singer-songwriter.

Melanie is widely known for the 1971�72 global hit "Brand New Key", her 1970 version of the Rolling Stones' "Ruby Tuesday", her composition "What Have They Done to My Song Ma", and her 1970 international breakthrough hit "Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)", which was inspired by her experience of performing at the 1969 Woodstock music festival
