Today is Christmas Eve, so this week's video is another festive themed one! :) (Last week's was Tobii's X Mas Love .) It's Jingle Bell Rock by Filipino girl group 4th Impact  (also stylised as 4TH IMPACT). Side note: 2025 has been a milestone year for the sisters, who celebrated their 10th anniversary as a group in August. Their celebrations consisted of a new single, Bet You Never and an anniversary concert in Los Angeles, California. Jingle Bell Rock is 4th Impact's latest single. It's a cover of the classic song , originally released by American country singer Bobby Helms back in November 1957. It's been very popular every Christmas since (in the US in particular) and has been covered by other artists, most notably by American singer  Brenda Lee in October 1964. The video premiered on 12th December.      4th Impact fan? Check out these links: Music video for their debut US single Distorted (released in 2023): https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2024/05/wee...
