    "Mele Kalikimaka" is a Hawaiian-themed Christmas song written in 1949 by R. Alex Anderson. The song takes its title from the Hawaiian phrase Mele Kalikimaka, meaning "Merry Christmas". One of the earliest recordings of this song was by Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters in 1950 on Decca. It has been covered by many artists and used in several films.

    I have to learn this sometime before next Christmas, I love it in Christmas Vacation. But it's on the C7 (Hawaiian tuning) neck, which I know jack about. I'm going to work on Christmas songs all year, folks are after me to do an "album". Hope you are well, Frank!
