The Peanuts -- Santa Claus is Coming to Town

And here I thought that the sisters merely specialized in giant caterpillar calling (just joking). Over here, when one thinks of The Peanuts' Christmas, one would automatically think Charlie Brown, that sickly Xmas tree and the glorious dance on the auditorium stage with Vince Guaraldi. However when I go into kayo kyoku mode, I think of Emi and Yumi singing "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" or as it's known over there, "Santa ga Machi ni Yatte Kuru"（サンタが町にやってくる）, a direct translation.

According to the uploader, The Peanuts did their cover of the Yuletide classic (still remember the Rankin & Bass cartoon with Fred Astaire) in 1962 as a special single. Would love to know if there is a "live" version of them singing it somewhere on YouTube.
