Song of the day for November 17, 2024

Mary’s Boy Child by Harry Belafonte is today’s featured song.
In 1957, Harry Belafonte broke sales records with “Mary’s Boy Child.” The Christmas song, which remained at the top of the pop charts for seven weeks, was the first single to move over a million copies. 21 years later, when Boney M. covered the song, it became the first Christmas track to hit No.1 in two different versions.
