Nathaniel Adams Coles (March 17, 1919 – February 15, 1965), known professionally by his stage name Nat King Cole, was an American singer and jazz pianist. He recorded over 100 songs that became hits on the pop charts. He also acted in films and on television and performed on Broadway. He was the first African American man to host an American television series, The Nat King Cole Show.

Some of his notable hits include, "Nature Boy", "Rambling Rose", Mona Lisa", "Answer Me, My Love", "L-O-V-E", "Smile", "A Blossom Fell", and "Unforgettable".

His band at the time, the Nat King Cole Trio, first recorded the classic Christmas carol "The Christmas Song" in June 1946 and again two months later with a string choir. He recorded it two more times on his own in 1953 and 1961 respectively.
