Bing Crosby’s most famous song is “White Christmas.” The holiday classic was written by Irving Berlin and was recorded in 1942. It appears in Crosby’s film Holiday Inn, also released in 1942. “White Christmas” is not only the top-selling Christmas record of all time (not including streaming) but also the best-selling single of all time, according to Guinness World Records.
