No, I am not going to link to a video of her big Christmas hit. I've heard that song enough times already.

Hat tip, This Day in Country Music

1944
Born on this day in Atlanta, Georgia, was Brenda Lee. At 4 ft. 9 inches tall (approximately 145 cm), she received the nickname 'Little Miss Dynamite' in 1957 after recording the song "Dynamite"; and was one of the earliest pop stars to have a major contemporary international following. In 1997, she was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Little Richard Tutti Frutti Lyrics
Wop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bom-bom
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, woo!
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Awop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bom-bom

I got a girl named Sue
She knows just what to do
I got a girl named Sue
She knows just what to do

She rock to the east
She rock to the west
But she's the girl that I love best

Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, woo!
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Awop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bom-bom

I got a girl named Daisy
She almost drive me crazy
I got a girl named Daisy
She almost drive me crazy

She knows how to love me
Yes, indeed
Boy, you don't know what she do to me

Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, woo!
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Awop-bop-a-loo-mop, ow!

Oh, tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, woo!
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Awop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bom-bom

I got a girl named Daisy
She almost drive me crazy
I got a girl named Daisy
She almost drive me crazy

She knows how to love me
Yes, indeed
Boy, you don't know what she do to me

Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, woo!
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Tutti frutti, oh rutti
Awop-bop-a-loo-mop alop-bam-boom
