Frosty the Snowman - Ella Fitzgerald - MP3 instrumental karaoke

The esteemed Ella Fitzgerald brought Frosty to life for her skippy 1960 version of this icy yet warm-hearted classic, which was recorded during summer that year with an orchestra conducted by Frank DeVol, who also arranged the music. "Frosty the snowman / Was a jolly happy soul / With a corncob pipe and a button nose / And two eyes made out of coal," begins the "The Queen of Jazz" on her lush rendition of the holiday standard. Enriching the song with an air of bouncy sophistication, Ella Fitzgeraldeven makes Frosty's inevitable end sound jolly when she sings: "He could laugh and play / Just the same as you and me / Frosty the snowman / Knew the sun was hot that day / So he said let's run / And we'll have some fun / Now before I melt away / Down to the village." "Frosty the Snowman" was featured on the 1960 album Ella Wishes You a Swinging Christmas.
