In spite of her adult voice, Brenda Lee recorded the song when she was only 13 years old. Lee recalled that she didn’t know why Marks wanted her to sing it: “...I had not had a lot of success in records, but for some reason he heard me and wanted me to do it. And I did.“ “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree“ instrumentation also fits the country music genre, which Lee more fully embraced as her career evolved. “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree“ features Hank Garland and Harold Bradley on guitar, Floyd Cramer on piano, Boots Randolph on sax, Bob Moore on bass, and veteran session player Buddy Harman on drums. The original version of “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree“ with Brenda Lee vocals is written in the key of A-flat major. An instrumental version of “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree“ appears as background music in the 1964 television special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, which exclusively featured music written by Marks. It can be heard in the scene where Rudolph first arrives at the Reindeer Games and meets another reindeer named Fireball.
