00:00 you gonna take my stool with you is that what you said? I am I'm taking your stool.
00:03 Only you miss Brenda. Well thank you I mean I don't have a stool. Okay we gotta
00:08 make sure you have one. You know what you didn't have a music video either and
00:12 you check that off the list. I have checked that off the list and I will
00:16 tell you it was so exciting Tanya Tucker my girlfriend and Trisha Yearwood
00:22 my girlfriend they're in it. Oh my gosh. And we just had the biggest old time.
00:28 Rockin' around the Christmas tree let the Christmas spirit ring.
00:34 What made you think you know what now is the right time 65 years later to finally
00:40 release a video for Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree. Well you know I don't
00:45 know why I never really released a video on it but you're right it's 65 years old
00:51 and it's unbelievable that it's that old. I remember when I got the call from one
01:00 of my friends and they said Brenda there's a new movie out it's called Home
01:04 Alone and your songs all over it. So I went sit down with oh lord and I called
01:10 the writer Johnny Marx who lived in New York and we were just so proud and
01:17 that's really the catalyst I think that pushed it to the forefront. I don't know
01:22 it has been a song people have been rocking to every single holiday season.
01:27 Do you rock to it? I rock to it. I wonder if Mariah does so or if she rocks to hers.
01:34 Well I think she's got to give it to the Queen the original Queen of Christmas
01:38 Miss Brenda Lee so right without a doubt Mariah Carey's definitely rockin'
01:44 around the Christmas tree. Did you always enjoy singing the song or it being
01:48 brought up? Always and you know they had a party for me and I didn't know what
01:54 the party was about because I didn't know that rockin' had gone five times
01:59 platinum. So I'm at the party and my best friend all through school and all
02:04 Kay Smith she was there and I'm like why is Kay here you know and all of a sudden
02:09 they said yay Brenda your song has gone five times platinum and I'm like which
02:16 song? I had no clue I had no clue.
02:22 So look at you now.
02:25 you
