V (Kim Taehyung) of BTS is set to bring the holiday spirit to fans worldwide with a special duet of the classic song “White Christmas” alongside the legendary Bing Crosby. Slated for release on December 6, this collaboration offers a fresh reinterpretation of Crosby’s 1942 holiday hit. V’s unique vocal style blends with Crosby’s timeless crooning.
This duet is particularly significant as it marks the first official duet release with Bing Crosby in 47 years, the last being his iconic 1977 duet with David Bowie. V’s admiration for Bing Crosby has been well-known, and this collaboration is a result of V’s longstanding respect for the music legend. In 2022, V shared a cover of Crosby’s “It’s Been a Long, Long Time,” which drew praise from Crosby’s official channel, acknowledging V’s potential as a great jazz crooner.
Bing Crosby, known for his contributions to both music and film, is a celebrated icon of the 20th century. He earned his place on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. His rendition of “White Christmas” remains a beloved holiday classic. Top artists like Michael Bublé, Taylor Swift, and Katy Perry have covered it. However, a duet with Crosby has never been released. This makes “White Christmas (with V of BTS)” a groundbreaking and heartwarming addition to the song’s legacy.
