Why not two or four? Because three is lyric.” It was originally sung by Vaughn Monroe, but Dean Martin’s version is one of the best ones, and perfectly fits his image as a swinging member of the Rat Pack without a care in the world. I said to Jule Stein, ‘Why don’t we go down to the beach and cool off?’ He said, ‘Why don’t we stay here and write a winter song.’ I went to the typewriter. Instead of going to the beach, they stayed at wrote a winter song! In Paul Zollo’s book ‘Songwriters on Songwriting’ writer Sammy Cahn said: “’Let It Snow’ was written on Hollywood and Vine on the hottest day of the year. It’s about making the most of a snowy day by spending it with a loved one by the fire, even though Christmas is not mentioned in the lyrics. Dean Martin wafts back onto the Billboard Hot 100 with his flurry-filled rendition of 'Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow' at No.
