No, it's not Elmo and Patsy's "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer."
Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" has sold at least 50 million singles (Wonder how many downloads?) making it not only the best-selling Christmas song, but the top-selling single of all time.
It was written by Irving Berlin and recorded by Bing Crosby for the 1942 musical "Holiday Inn." It won an Oscar for best original song and inspired the movie "White Christmas, which topped the box office in 1954.
