Well, the Christmas carol "Jingle Bells" was originally written by James Pierpont in 1857, and it was first published in 1859 as "One Horse Open Sleigh". It has become one of the most recognizable and beloved Christmas songs of all time, and has been recorded by many artists over the years, including Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, Michael Buble, and Mariah Carey, just to name a few. But the original version is still one of the most popular and iconic renditions of the song.
