TYPE JOHN FRIES IN THE SEAQRCH BAR TO SEE ALL I HAVE TO OFFER. Thanks, John. (There's No Place Like) Home for the Holidays is a 1954 song commonly associated with the Christmas and holiday season. The lyrics detail the joys of being in your home community during the holidays and give examples of how some people will travel long distances to be with their loved ones. The music was composed by Robert Allen, with the lyrics written by Al Stillman. The best-known recordings of Home for the Holidays were made by Perry Como, who recorded the song twice, both times accompanied by Mitchell Ayres' Orchestra and the Ray Charles Singers. Perhaps the most iconic version of the song, other than the original Perry Como version, is the Carpenters’ recording on their 1984 LP release, An Old Fashioned Christmas.

The history of the song Top Of The World - The Carpenters
Top Of The World is a classic song by the American duo The Carpenters, released in 1972 and composed by Richard Carpenter and John Bettis. The song became a huge hit, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1973.

Composition and Inspiration:

The song's lyrics express the feeling of euphoria and intense happiness that true love can provide. The chorus, with the phrase I'm on top of the world, symbolizes the peak of happiness and the feeling that anything is possible when you're in love.

History:

The song was initially composed to be just one track on an album. However, when Lynn Anderson's version, released in mid-1973, was successful, the Carpenters regretted not releasing their version as a single sooner.
The Carpenters' version was released as a single on September 17, 1973 and became a huge success, reaching the top of the charts in several countries.
Top Of The World became one of the duo's most popular and beloved songs, frequently appearing on compilations and live performances.

Their manager advised them to take a short break from their work and go to a movie theater to see the film. Richard and Karen were immediately taken with this song and agreed that it should be the follow-up to their previous hits. After returning home, they recorded it, released it in December, and it went gold in only two months. The Carpenters' success with this song helped it win the 1970 Oscar for Best Song.

It was originally only an album track; 2 years passed before it was released as a single. During 1973-74, the Carpenters found themselves with a busy touring schedule, which kept them from working on new material. As a result, they had no album issued for the year. They decided to choose this song for single release. It works well as a piano solo. If you have need for a special arrangement or wish to see what I have available email me at jfries@ptd.net.
