Frank Sinatra Climbs Billboard Charts for the First Time in Over 50 Years for His Version of ‘Jingle Bells’

Infamous “Rat Pack” singer Frank Sinatra is back on the charts for the first time in 56 years thanks to his version of “Jingle Bells.”

According to Billboard, the 1948 release has now hit No. 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 Charts, gaining 16.9 million official U.S. streams and 15.3 million all-radio listens. This is a 19% jump that boosted the song back in the spotlight. 

This is the first time that Sinatra, who died in 1998, has had a hit song since 1967, as the Christmas season brings many holiday classics back into the mainstream. 

This week, the Billboard Hot 100 is dominated by Christmas music from various eras. From Sinatra to Mariah Carey, the holiday season is proving that no matter when a Christmas song is recorded, it can always be well-received. 

Classic standards like “Jingle Bells,” “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas,” and “It’s The Most Wonderful Time of The Year” are holding steady. 

The Ronettes, Burl Ives, and Bobby Helms are also featured in the top 10 with classic holiday favorites, but a few newer Christmas songs are proving their place as well. 

Kelly Clarkson’s “Underneath The Tree” and Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me” have earned their place in the top 20. 

While Sinatra hasn’t reclaimed the No. 1 slot, his version of “Jingle Bells” has been climbing up the charts. 

“Jingle Bells” was written by composer James Pierpont in 1857. But when it was first released, it was called, ‘One Horse Open Sleigh” via American Songwriter.

Although the history of the song is debatable, with some claiming it was written as a church song and others claiming it is a tavern song, it was supposedly created as a Thanksgiving song. 

The festive lyrics were adopted as part of the holiday season and are still proving popular as Sinatra’s hit continues to be shared.
