"'Let It Snow' has always been a favorite of mine," Dixon remarked about the tune.  "Annie and I are so excited to celebrate our first Christmas as a family of four, so recording a new song in time for the holidays just seemed like a really fun idea. Not sure we'll get any snow either, but one could hope!"

Written by lyricist Sammy Cahn and composer Jule Styne in July 1945, the classic was penned in Hollywood, California, ironically during a heat wave as Cahn and Styne imagined cooler conditions.
