Merry Xmas Everybody - Robbie Williams & Jamie Cullum - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Merry Xmas Everybody" is a festive song by English rock band Slade, released in November 1973. Written by Noddy Holder and Jim Lea, the tune bears Slade's vibrant rock style, intertwined with a healthy dash of holiday cheer. Jim Lea conceived the verse melody in the shower, later merging it with a 1967 Noddy Holder tune, originally titled "Buy Me a Rocking Chair." Produced by Chas Chandler, this song marked a daring venture into seasonal music for Slade, who were already riding high with chart-toppers like "Cum on Feel the Noize." The track was both the band's last number 1 hit single and their best-selling one. Eventually, "Merry Xmas Everybody" was certified double-platinum in the UK and has since become one of the most beloved holiday songs in Britain. Notable cover versions include those by Oasis, Steps, Tony Christie, and Robbie Williams, who recorded it as a duet with Jamie Cullum on his 2019 holiday album, The Christmas Present.
