Cliff Richard - Daddy's Home

Shep and the Limelites was a popular American doo wop group in the early 1960's. They recorded the original version of 'Daddy’s Home' on February 1st, 1961. 'Daddy’s Home' reached number 2 on the US Billboard pop chart in May - one of the highest charting doo wop songs of all time. It was later covered by Jermaine Jackson in 1972 and in 1981 in an outstandingly respectful rendition by Cliff Richard.

Sir Cliff Richard, a professed Christian, has had several hits with a Christmas theme. This one, backed by 'Shakin' All Over' does not specifically mention Christmas, but it gives you a nice warm fuzzy feeling and I loved it and still do all these years later. It was released at Christmas time 1981, and stayed at number 2 in the UK Singles Charts for 4 weeks, held off the top by the Human League 'Don't You Want Me'.
