This song is still under copyright, so the lyrics have been removed. — BrianSmithson 09:19, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

in the US The Office, Dwight hums a version of this, which cover is this?

Well if the song is under copyright, why is the first link on Google for "The Little Drummer Boy" the lyrics to the song? Chenhsi (talk) 00:11, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

That's a good question... --Legion (talk) 14:29, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dandy Warhols

I can find no trace of the Dandy Warhols ever having sung this song, so I have deleted that line. Ogg 12:41, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

My apologies, it was a single in 1997. Stangely this single is not mentioned within Wikipedia. Ogg 12:47, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cherish the Ladies

The album "Woman of the House" by "Cherish the Ladies" doesn't contain "Little Drummer Boy". It's on "On Christmas Night". Ogg 12:53, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 1955 or 58?

at the top it says 58 but then bellow it says the trap family singers recorded it prior to their 1955 retirement. what's the deal?

[edit] Anti-Arab racism

Is this a WP:RS? - CheshireKatz (talk) 21:32, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Doubtful... on a hunch (or rather a suspicion), I checked out Widepants' user page and it turns out that he/she/they/whatever is actually a sock puppet or so it says on his/her/their/whatever page. So that puts the source given above by him/her/them/whatever into a serious case of doubt regarding its reliability. But, again, who am I to argue? I'd rather leave that to those professionals that know how to deal with this matter. I just read more than I contribute here. ;) Oh, crap, I just wrote too long here. I'll just get back to my reading routine for now and not waste my time here. ;P --Legion (talk) 14:39, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
