NO..Thurl Ravenscroft did...originally people thought the narrator... Boris Karloff sang it....then people though james earl jones sang it..but in reality Vocalist Thurl Ravenscroft, not Boris Karloff, or James Earl Jones sang the original song of the Grinch, “You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch.” Theodor Geisel was extremely apologetic to Ravenscroft when the omission in the credits was discovered. ... Ravenscroft's sonorous basso was a key part of the television production of 50 years ago

Boris Karloff voiced the Grinch, but he didn’t sing β€œYou’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch”. That was Thurl Ravenscroft.

No. Thurl Ravenscroft did the original 1966 song for the cartoon. Boris Karloff was mistakenly given credit for it. Dr. Suess tried to correct the mistake.
