If there is one thing that can get Mariah Carey’s inexplicable performance of “All I Want for Christmas” at the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting out of my head, it’s Darlene Love’s last performance of “Christmas (baby Please Come Home) on The Late Show with David Letterman.

The living legend, Darlene Love, 73, delivered her 28th and final performance of the Christmas Anthem she first sang in 1963 to a standing ovation. For those of you not familiar with Darlene Love’s story check out the 2013 Oscar winner for best documentary “20 Feet From Stardom.”
