Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! - being usually shorted for Let It Snow! -, was composed in 1945 by Jule Styne and its lyrics by Sammy Cahn.
As many other songs associated with Christmas, and although it's highly associated with this season, it never mentions this holiday being originally thought as a love song.

Last year, we chose Mika's unreleased version - check it here.

This year, the Portuguese band recorded this version to the Christmas compilation Feliz Natal 2012 of Liga dos Pequeninos.
