It’s a long tradition in soul music to release at least one Christmas single, and Donny Hathaway’s 1970 single This Christmas is a worthy addition to the pantheon. The song was written by Donny Hathaway (though he was credited as Donny Pitts along with Nadine Theresa McKinnor) and it was produced by Don-Ric Enterprises. Its lyrics seek to explore the possibilities and the joy of Christmas time, especially when it comes to the representation of African Americans in the celebration. Though the single didn’t attract much attention when it was first released, it eventually started to gather steam, largely due to its inclusion in the 1991 revised edition of the Soul Christmas compilation album. It started appearing on charts shortly after that, and it peaked at Number 39 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, as well as Number 25 on the US Holiday 100. It is considered the 39th most-performed holiday song of all time according to the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers.

    This track is exactly what I needed for my Holiday concert at school. My 5th graders are really going to love singing with this track.

    Authentic... sounds just like Donny Hathaway track. Ending a bit longer than his version, which is fine. More time to ad lib and engage audience.
