Alan Jackson Serves Up Delightful “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” Performance

For 2017’s CMA Country Christmas, Alan Jackson performed the classic song “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.”

Every year, CMA Country Christmas helps us get into the holiday spirit by bringing some of the best country singers to sing classic holiday songs.

Reba McEntire hosted 2017’s fun-filled night, with performances from Trisha Yearwood, Lady Antebellum, Little Big Town, Alan Jackson, and many more.  Not only did Jackson perform the classic “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,” he also sang “There’s A New Kid In Town” with Chris Young, a song he previously performed with the late Keith Whitley.

For his solo performance, looking as dapper as ever in a suit and his signature cowboy hat, Jackson performed the Christmas song and had the entire audience smiling with delight.

Alan Jackson released a Christmas album in 2002.

On October 22, 2002, Jackson released his second Christmas album, titled Let It Be Christmas. It included ten covers of classic Christmas songs including “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” “Winter Wonderland,” “O Come All Ye Faithful,” “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town,” “The Christmas Song,” “Silent Night,” “Jingle Bells,” “White Christmas,” “Silver Bells,” and “Away In A Manger.”

The sole original song on the album is the title track, which Jackson wrote himself. Watch him perform is with his family, including wife Denise, and daughters Mattie, Ali, and Dani.

It’s hard not to be in a good mood when watching a country legend and Hall of Fame inductee, perform one of the most well-known Christmas songs out there.
