Feliz Navidad
Próspero Año y Felicidad.

A Christmas song written in 1970 by Puerto Rican singer-songwriter José Feliciano. Feliciano wrote the song while feeling homesick in Los Angeles, missing his family in New York and Puerto Rico, and it was reportedly recorded in just 10 minutes at RCA Studios. The song's simple bilingual structure, featuring just 19 words (six in Spanish and thirteen in English), has made it a timeless holiday classic that was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2010.
