Not such a great person. Evil alcoholic dad who was abusive and cruel. However, there is no denying his brilliance as singer/actor/performer.

TheDino: Bing Crosby was one of a kind..
Sorry Dino. I don't mean to bring rain on your thread but he wasn't the loving White Christmas angel that he appeared to be in his music.


THE popularity of White Christmas remains undimmed. But another dark shadow has been cast across the reputation of Bing Crosby, the crooner who made the festive classic famous. During his career, he nurtured the image of a wholesome family man. But after his death he was denounced for beating his sons.Now a batch of FBI documents has exposed the star as a gambling, boozing womaniser whose ties to the Mafia were possibly even stronger than those of his friend Frank Sinatra.

It is his brilliance I admire for sure.. May have been the brilliance that ruined him I suppose..

No need for sorry, I admired his skill, what he was denounced for after his death is not why I posted the song... But it is good to have opinions shared bouquet
