Suzy is a snowflake playfully personified. It is commonly regarded as a Christmas song, although it makes no mention of the holiday. The child-oriented lyrics celebrate the fun of winter. According to legend, she is said to be the wife of Jack Frost.[1]
A cartoon short based on the song was made in 1953 by Centaur Productions, with stop-motion animation created by Wah Ming Chang.[2] It is annually shown during the Christmas season on WGN-TV in Chicago and WJAC-TV in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, along with another production by Centaur, Hardrock, Coco and Joe and an early UPA version of Frosty the Snowman.
Clooney later re-recorded the song for her 1978 Mistletoe Records album Christmas with Rosemary Clooney.[3] It has been covered by other artists, most notably Soul Coughing in 1997.
