A legend. My Christmas wouldn't be the same without it. He co founded ELO ....what's not to love about Roy Wood. Nearly 50 years old and sounds as fresh as ever!
@@carolroberts4614 I was born in the late 70s and this was a staple Christmas song of my childhood. So many good songs and memories - now I'm living in the US and hardly anyone has heard of the songs that made the season special to me so I get to enjoy them and introducing new holiday songs to my loved ones and their children - it just makes it extra special. Hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season!
Makes me wonder where those kids are now? Probably grandparents by now and they play this video relentlessly to their young family members. A time of innocence and wonderment, smashed on the rocks of political correctness.
Yes after some deliberation of about 20+ years I have decided that is true. Close second is Last Christmas by Wham! and Merry Xmas Everybody by Slade. Greetings from Cambridgeshire
I was born in '84 so Wizzard & Slade had always been part of the Christmas landscape for me, hard to believe they were both released in the same year. I'm a metalhead, but glam rock has always had a special place in my heart - Slade, T-Rex, Mott the Hoople, Sweet, Bowie, Mud are fantastic. Roy Wood is an absolute genius (early ELO, The Move and of course Wizzard). Weird, the 1970s seem like a magical time, but I think maybe I'm just getting nostalgic as I push 40, even for decades when I wasn't actually alive.
This is not the original Version track as the 1970s as it wasw set backing with the Suedettes, it's re-done! in the 1980s and that the version that remain at the earliest online, also the track you can stream and hear on radio now is from 2005 version.
My secondary school teacher went to school with some of the band members from slade. I had no idea they were from Wolverhampton until I was a teenager.
My birthday is on Christmas day and when my nan was still with me she would play this song when I opened my presents. Just came here for nostalgic reasons
What a joyous song! I bet it couldn’t get worse after playing it on repeat for millions of years progressively getting louder and louder, and that’s the only thing you can hear
I can’t stop listening to this😊 No literally I’ve tried to stop playing it and it just gets louder oh god please help it won’t stop it won’t stop it won’t stop it won’t stop
My dad was 12 when this song was released. I was 12 when, in the 90s and the Spice Girls reigned supreme, he played it to me for the first time to show me what the Christmas hits of his childhood were like. Dad died far too young and this time of year is hard but hearing this everywhere is always a lovely, bittersweet moment of connection.
I am listening to all the old Christmas songs and remembering happier times…when the world has gone into a really dark time these songs give me the strength to fight back
Born in66 ever time I hear this I am transported back to my childhood and a feeling I can’t explain comes over me, especially the video it’s a masterpiece thank you to everyone involved in making it 👏👏
It's Hard to Believe that Roy Wood Came from Royal Leamington Spa . The Second best Christmas Song ever !!!!!!!!!!! Behind Shane's Classic ...............
I’m an individual who struggles with mental illness. Every time I hear this song at Christmas, it’s a reminder that I made it through another year and it always makes me feel happy inside. Edit: Almost a year later since I made this post, I’m still here and striving. Have a merry Christmas ✨
@@ChaosHusky as I said to Pat happy Christmas my friend the future will be ok for you all go through bad patches I've bin thro plenty but you come out the other side x

Still can''t be topped as a Christmas song! Those kids just having the time of their lives. I really do miss the seventies sometimes. Then you've got Slade's epic contribution as well. 1973!
Even though I'm almost 71 when I put my Christmas CD's on I dance around with the cleaner. It helps get the cleaning done quicker. My dog must think I've lost the plot
I bought this record as a teenager in the 1970s, I’m 62 now and still love it, it never seems to get old, unlike me!. Still wear my 6inch heeled platform shoes though!.

I miss those times. I was a kid back then. Christmas was a magical time. Despite my dad beating me regularly with a stick, taking his anger out on me while being browbeaten by a manic depressive wife and mother, I still loved Christmas. I've grown though, have kids of my own. Have never beaten them and never been mean to them. My job now is to do better than my father and mother and to raise my children with love, tolerance and understanding. I'm better than my parents ever were and I hope that my kids will do even better than me. I hope they enjoy Christmas as it should be enjoyed with wonderful songs like this. We'll have gifts, love, hugs and togetherness, We'll have Christmas dinner with all the frills and I'll make it magical as best I can...... The hurt stops with me.

This song will always remind me of being a child looking forward to opening my presents on Christmas day. The excitement was just so amazing, I'll never forget that feeling ❤️
We have never met, but we share that memory. I remember almost wetting myself to open my presents Christmas morning. I can still hear this song, and my Mum picking up the wrapping as I tore into my presents. My Dad putting some contraption together, I actually know it was the board game “Mousetrap”! I’m 49 years old now, and I still feel that childhood joy. Merry Christmas! 🎄
I used to get the Beano and Dandy annuals and used to secretly bite a corner of the wrapping paper to take a peek before Xmas day. I'm mid 50's now and would still do that!!
@@pommiebears Mousetrap! memories! In the 70s we also had Cluedo, Scrabble, Monopoly, Buckaneer, Kerplunk and the game with the popping dice dome thing in the middle as well as Snakes and Ladders!!
This has always been my favorite Christmas song. Even when i was a kid. This one has Christmas enbedded into it , the smell and the giddyness of Christmas eve still rushes into my heart when this comes on.
Christmas 2020. I thought it would never arrive, because it heralds 2021, hopefully much better than the worst year in memory we have all suffered. Merry Christmas to one and all!

Almost everybody will listen to this several times every Xmas! You can't escape from something this good xxxxx

Yeah, not a hit in the USA. The lead singer formed ELO in the early 70s.
And a Happy Christmas to you too.

That date it is 50 years ago Britain got its decimal currency system.... Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you, and stay safe and healthy!
Been listening to this for 100 million years now!
RIP JOE POTTER 😇
Simply the best Christmas song ever.
I agree.
It’s quite technical
think you'll change your mind if you watch black mirror
@@Dextronaut1 Which episode?
@@mintydog06 it's called "White Christmas"
Even Slade fans in hindsight consider this a better song!
This song will always remind me of being a child looking forward to opening my presents on Christmas day. The excitement was just so amazing, I'll never forget that feeling ❤️
Same here but for my own children being young then! Magic!
We have never met, but we share that memory. I remember almost wetting myself to open my presents Christmas morning. I can still hear this song, and my Mum picking up the wrapping as I tore into my presents. My Dad putting some contraption together, I actually know it was the board game “Mousetrap”! I’m 49 years old now, and I still feel that childhood joy. Merry Christmas! 🎄
I used to get the Beano and Dandy annuals and used to secretly bite a corner of the wrapping paper to take a peek before Xmas day. I'm mid 50's now and would still do that!!
@@pommiebears Mousetrap! memories! In the 70s we also had Cluedo, Scrabble, Monopoly, Buckaneer, Kerplunk and the game with the popping dice dome thing in the middle as well as Snakes and Ladders!!
@@Andy-wx4wx wonderful memories, simpler times
Born in 2000 and still dancing to the greatest Christmas song of all time.
Nice man, born in 1999 and just discovered this. What a banger.
What a versatile mucician roy wood is still performing today he is awesome brilliant his songs have stood the test of time
3:05 is my favourite bit of the song and it’s the best
Roy wood is a legend , can’t believe this song is 50 years old and still going strong ,
Loved them when I was a kid. They never took themselves too seriously unlike bands today.
Who's listening in December 2024??🎅
Yes 12 December 2024 🇬🇧
I'm not here 😂 🕺
🙋♀️🙋♀️
You know we all are even tho it's played every where 😂
I just heard this on the radio today. It reminds me of the good old days. I'm a 90s kid here.
Does anything get better than this? The outfits, the instruments, the whole entire thing. Awesome
@Ellie Gittins, it doesn't get any better than this, no. The lead singer was once in the group The Electric Light Orchesta
Great song my all time favourite song by wizzard
@@tanyasudlow6060I never heard of this song or Wizzard and I am 58. Bizarre.
My daughter was born to this legendary song
This should be no 1 in charts NOW..

Merry Christmas!!
My favourite Christmas song...
Those kids are adorable! ❤🎅🎄🎁✨️
It's my favourite Christmas song of all time
It's great to jive to, especially after a drink or two. Classic song.
Great song, arguably one of the best xmas songs ever written. Actually recorded in the middle of summertime, when it was 30 odd degrees outside.
1973 record.
December is here!! 🎄
This will forever be my favorite christmas song🫶🎅
A classic christmas tune by Wizzard.....recorded in the heat of summer.....they will have been sweating like mad under the studio lights
This has always been my favorite Christmas song. Even when i was a kid. This one has Christmas enbedded into it , the smell and the giddyness of Christmas eve still rushes into my heart when this comes on.
It's 25 October 2023, so I'm early to the party! Hello all!
