Classic Version: The original recording was sung by Andy Williams and remains the most popular rendition today. It's timeless and classic and it wouldn't feel right to go through the holiday season without hearing it at least once. Or in my case, 60-80 times.

"Other activities mentioned [in the song] include hosting parties, spontaneous visits from friends, universal social gaiety, spending time with loved ones, sledding for children..."
From here on out we refer to "World Peace" as "Universal Social Gaiety." All in favor?
Modern Versions: None. I was pretty disappointed with every cover I listened to. Seriously, if you find one that's worth listening to, please comment below.
As it turns out, Andy Williams re-recorded his song in 2004 for the movie, Surviving Christmas. So that's my modern version.

Yes there's still a poll.
