Gene Autry hated Rudolph, The Red Nosed Reindeer; did NOT want to record it. He finally put it on the B side to make his wife happy.
Similarly, Rosemary Clooney hated Come On-a My House and tried to get out of recording it. Only when the management at Columbia Records threatened to fire her if she didn't show up at the studio at 9:00 AM to record the song did she do so. It turned out to be the first of a string of hits for her.
The song was co-written by the noted playwright William Saroyan and Ross Bagdasarian, who would later wax the chart-topper Witch Doctor and then make a boatload of hits when he created the Chipmunks.
I’ve come to realize that most artists hate most of the songs they do. But it’s a living.
