I like that cover. It's probably the slowest cover.
She sounds sexy, slowly caressing, comforting,... and in line with the reasons why White Christmas was a hit in the 40s. In war time people needed a song comforting them.

The song initially performed poorly and was overshadowed by Holiday Inn's first hit song: "Be Careful, It's My Heart".[8] By the end of October 1942, "White Christmas" topped the "Your Hit Parade" chart. It remained in that position until well into the new year.[8] It has often been noted that the mix of melancholy — "just like the ones I used to know" — with comforting images of home — "where the treetops glisten" — resonated especially strongly with listeners during World War II. The Armed Forces Network was flooded with requests for the song. The recording is noted for Crosby's whistling during the second Chorus.[8]

If I ever get stuck in a frozen landscape and the only help I can get is requesting a song on a radio. I would request this cover, let my imagination picture her under a tree making me feel warm.
this is HER cover?
Streaming might be the future but in reality, It's only 33% of the whole chart pie. Radio refused to play TIHWD for a reason, they wanted to protect their listeners' ears..they're just businessmen
