NPOV
edit"Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow" is supposedly a traditional Christmas song, but this article is written almost as if it was an original recording by Simpson. Extraordinary Machine 18:16, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
- This has now been fixed by spinning off the Simpson version to its own article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Snowspinner (talk • contribs) 20:07, 12 November 2005.
- I don't think it's a good idea to have separate articles on different versions of the same song, especially if one or more versions aren't notable, or if the main article for the song is very short. So I've merged it back, but I've expanded this article slightly to include information about the cover versions by other artists, so that it doesn't imply that Simpson's cover is the only one in existence.

- Traditional? Christmas song? As the article has stated, the song does not even mention Christmas, only snowing. While it is sung by many during Christmas, this so is by no means a traditional Christmas song, because it is neither traditional nor a Christmas song.--Steven 05:08, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
Why do you call it a Christmas song? Isn't it just a winter song?
I removed the Jessica Simpson template and infobox. It has no place in this article and makes it look like its hers. That was the impression I got when I first accessed the article and was surprised to see it was "her" song, written in 2004. A separate article can be made for her cover if it is notable, which it appears not.--Metallurgist (talk) 18:14, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Lyrics
editI'm not sure if this song is old enough for the copyright on its lyrics to have expired, so I'm removing them. Extraordinary Machine 15:16, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
Song title is wrong
editTwo points: One, the song's official title is "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" despite what others have called it over the years (and despite the "Let It Snow" title of this article). Second, the well-known Boyz II Men song "Let It Snow" is a completely different song and ought to be spun off into its own entry. Cheemo 07:10, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
- Part 1 of this has been done. Cheemo 11:42, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Requested move
edit- The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
No consensus to move. Vegaswikian (talk) 19:01, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! → Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow – All sources show the song title as “Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow” without the exclamation marks. 0vittal (talk) 19:53, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
- Support. I agree with 0vittal – the majority of reliable sources use commas, not exclamation marks. Jenks24 (talk) 07:40, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- I'm curious what these reliable sources are; there are none in this article at all. Powers T 20:34, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- Allmusic uses the current title in its biography of Styne. A Google book search reveals plenty of books that use the exclamation marks, including Christmas's Most Wanted, that uses the title "Let It Snow" and continues "...the official title being 'Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!'." Jafeluv (talk) 10:15, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose - In this case the original sheet music (1945) uses Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Even though primary, they have to be viewed as RS in this. --Mike Cline (talk) 11:53, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

Dean Martin
editWhy is Dean Martin mentioned only in the categories?--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 04:40, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- Probably because he was removed as a WP:COVERSONG sweep and the cat wasn't removed. Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:53, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
Frank Sinatra
editCan someone please add the info for the Frank Sinatra recording? It's probably the most famous recording of this song. Golbez81 (talk) 15:48, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
- What info exactly? Where did it chart? What position did it reach? WP:COVERSONG requires that. Walter Görlitz (talk) 16:52, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
