[edit] NPOV

"Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow" is supposedly a traditional Christmas song, but this article is written almost as if it was an original recording by Simpson. Extraordinary Machine 18:16, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

This has now been fixed by spinning off the Simpson version to its own article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Snowspinner (talk • contribs) 20:07, 12 November 2005.

I don't think it's a good idea to have separate articles on different versions of the same song, especially if one or more versions aren't notable, or if the main article for the song is very short. So I've merged it back, but I've expanded this article slightly to include information about the cover versions by other artists, so that it doesn't imply that Simpson's cover is the only one in existence.

Traditional? Christmas song? As the article has stated, the song does not even mention Christmas, only snowing. While it is sung by many during Christmas, this so is by no means a traditional Christmas song, because it is neither traditional nor a Christmas song.--Steven 05:08, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Why do you call it a Christmas song? Isn't it just a winter song?

[edit] Lyrics

I'm not sure if this song is old enough for the copyright on its lyrics to have expired, so I'm removing them. Extraordinary Machine 15:16, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Song title is wrong

Two points: One, the song's official title is "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" despite what others have called it over the years (and despite the "Let It Snow" title of this article). Second, the well-known Boyz II Men song "Let It Snow" is a completely different song and ought to be spun off into its own entry. Cheemo 07:10, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Part 1 of this has been done. Cheemo 11:42, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
