Merry Christmas Everyone
Snow is falling
all around me.
Children playing,
having fun.
It’s the season,
love and understanding.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Time for parties
and celebration.
People dancing
all night long.
Time for presents
and exchanging kisses.
Time for singing Christmas songs.
We’re gonna have a party tonight.
I’m gonna find that girl
underneath the mistletoe.
We’ll kiss by candlelight.
Room is swaying,
records playing.
All the old songs,
we love to hear,
All I wish that
everyday was Christmas.
What a nice way to spend the year.
We’re gonna have a party tonight.
I’m gonna find that girl
underneath the mistletoe.
We’ll kiss by candlelight.
Snow is falling
all around me.
Children playing,
having fun.
It’s the season,
love and understanding.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Ooh, merry Christmas everyone.
Snow is falling
all around me.
Children playing,
having fun.
It’s the season,
love and understanding.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Snow is falling
all around me.
Children playing,
having fun.
It’s the season,
love and understanding.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Oh, snow is falling
all around me.
Children playing,
having fun.
It’s the season,
love and understanding.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Merry Christmas everyone.

Om julesangen Merry Christmas Everyone
“Merry Christmas Everyone” er Shakin’ Stevens’ julehit fra 1985. Sangen blev skrevet af Bob Heatlie, mens Shakin’ Stevens gjorde den kendt med sin indspilning. Den hører til 1980’ernes britiske julepop, hvor store omkvæd og festlige arrangementer blev en del af decemberlyden.
Sneen, dansen og samværet giver teksten en let og glad stemning. Den bevæger sig mellem vinterbilleder og mennesker, der fejrer jul sammen, uden at gøre en bestemt historie til sit centrum. Dens energi er først og fremmest en invitation til at være med.
På julefester kan den samle både dem, der vil danse, og dem, der helst synger med fra sidelinjen. Den er også et eksempel på, at en kunstners stærkt genkendelige version kan blive den, publikum forbinder med en sang, selv om en anden skrev den. Den korte hilsen i titlen siger næsten alt om sangens funktion: den er lavet til at sendes ud til alle i rummet på én gang.
