25 Songs of Christmas: William Bell, Everyday Will Be Like A Holiday

Soul man William Bell is best known for two tracks – 1961’s “You Don’t Miss Your Water,” and the 1967 Christmas staple “Everyday Will Be Like A Holiday.” What makes this song so great, besides Bell’s great voice, is the nontraditional topic. He isn’t singing about snow or Santa Claus, he simply longs for his woman to return. His holiday isn’t defined by a calendar, it’s shaped by the love of his life. William Bell is speaking on the real reason for the season.
