Christmas has come and gone and sadly that means our favorite Christmas songs are gone as well. But there is one holiday classic song that I can always count on to help ease the transition into the New Year, ‘What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?'
This jazzy classic was made famous by the incomparable Ella Fitzgerald, and it always makes me feel nostalgic. And this year singer Chris Rupp is putting his spin on the crooner classic. Chris used to sing with one of our favorite a cappella groups Home Free before he headed out on his own. And now he is lending his vocal stylings to everything from classic hymns to modern pop hits. I absolutely adore this song.
Just listen to these lyrics and let Chris' performance take you back in time.
Maybe it’s much
Too early in the game
Ooh, but I thought
I’d ask you just the same
What are you doing New Year’s
New Year’s eve?
Wonder whose arms
Will hold you good and tight
When it’s exactly
Twelve o’clock that night
Welcoming in the New Year
New Year’s eve
Maybe I’m crazy to suppose
I’d ever be the one you chose
Out of the thousand invitations
You received
Ooh, but in case
I stand one little chance
Here comes
The jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New Year’s
New Year’s Eve?
