Elvis Presley Didn’t Want to Record “Blue Christmas” Lets Just Get This Over With by CMT Staff 12/24/2014 44 Share to Facebook 32 Tweet to Twitter More 1 Comments Proving that even the greatest singers, musicians and producers don’t always know when they’ve created a hit, Elvis Presley’s classic version of “Blue Christmas” almost didn’t happen. As Genius notes, Presley didn’t even want to record the song during a scheduled studio session in 1957. The late Millie Kirkham, the Nashville singer who sang soprano during the session, recalled Presley saying, “Let’s just get this over with.” During an interview at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, she said everyone involved in the recording had the same reaction. “That’s one record the record company will never release,” she said. youtu.be/oW3DnN2zLKQ
