History
Definitely an adaptation. I'd go for recomposition as only part of the song uses Jay/Livingston's melody.

So a partial adaptation then artsinspired ?
Maybe. The main part of the song uses the original Silver Bells melody with new lyrics, but there's also an intro part that's totally unrelated.

If only an element of the original has been used, that’s basically a partial adaptation. But we’d need the songwriters of the new song to get into the database.
You'd have to put it in as credits unknown as the liner notes aren't available and ISWC only credits Jay & Livingston.
