"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" is a song written in 1943 by #HughMartin and #RalphBlane and introduced by #JudyGarland in the 1944 #MGM musical #MeetMeInStLouis. #FrankSinatra later recorded a version with modified lyrics. In 2007, #ASCAP ranked it the third most performed #Christmas song during the preceding five years that had been written by ASCAP members.

The third video features various works of art from the Yellow Brick Road and several exhibits from Oz Museum, both of which are located in Wamego.

The video works best when played alongside Judy Garland’s performance of Over the Rainbow, which YouTube’s copyright protection system wouldn’t allow me to include.
