Perhaps one of the most heartbreaking numbers in the holiday songbook, "I'll Be Home for Christmas" was written by lyricist Kim Gannon and composer Walt Kent in 1943. Heavily inspired by the devastating consequences of World War II, the song is an ominous yet hopeful letter from a front-line soldier stationed overseas to his family, reassuring them he will be back home for the holidays. It was first popularized by singer Bing Crosby and the John Scott Trotter Orchestra in 1943 under the title "I'll Be Home for Christmas (If Only in My Dreams)," which resonated greatly with American audiences at the time and earned Bing Crosby his fifth Gold record. Numerous cover versions were released in the subsequent years, including one by Elvis Presley in 1957. In 1978, the brother-sister band The Carpenters included a poignant rendition of the song in their 1978 Christmas album, Christmas Portrait.
