The Greatest Christmas Songs of All-time - "Silent Night" - Joseph Mohr & Franz Xaver
Sunday, 16 November, 2025
Welcome back to Hitmaker Chronicles! I'm your host, Garrett Fisher. This week on our eight-week Christmas countdown, we explore "Silent Night" - the song written by a young priest after witnessing war's devastation, set to music in hours because a church organ wouldn't cooperate. We'll trace how two men in a tiny Austrian village created the most recorded song in human history, how it spread across the world mistaken for folk music, and how it stopped World War I for one extraordinary night in 1914. It's a story about broken organs, traveling glove-makers, and the song that proved sometimes the quietest voice carries the farthest.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!
