Christmas Songs for 2020

Christmas is less than a week away (!!), so today I'm sharing some festive music. :) You can see my previous Christmas music posts at the links below:

Christmas Songs 2019: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2019/12/christmas-songs-2019.html

 

John Lindahl feat Pia Mia- Cuddled Up

First up here is this week's Weekly Music Video, Cuddled Up by John Lindahl featuring Pia Mia: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2020/12/weekly-music-video_17.html

 

Mabel- I'll Be Home For Christmas

Here is I'll Be Home For Christmas, a new Christmas single from Swedish/British singer Mabel. Seems weird that it's already a year since she released Loneliest Time of Year! 

I'll Be Home For Christmas is a relaxing song about wanting to come home for Christmas. The audio was uploaded to YouTube on 20th November.


If you're feeling down this Christmas (and sadly, due to the current situation with the coronavirus, many people are), you may resonate with Loneliest Time Of Year. It originally came out in November 2019 and Mabel has re-released it this year, along with I'll Be Home For Christmas. 

Check out the video here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2019/12/weekly-music-video_18.html

 

JoJo- December Baby

This is December Baby by American singer JoJo. It's from her new Christmas album of the same name which was released back in late October. I'd imagine that part of the reason it's called December Baby is because JoJo was born in December! It's actually her 30th birthday tomorrow, so Happy Early Birthday JoJo! :) 

 December Baby is about seeing a loved one again in December. The music video premiered on 7th December and the livestream December Baby Concert Special took place yesterday.


JoJo has kindly uploaded the full album as one video on YouTube, so you can listen below:

Mariah Carey

My favourite singer Mariah Carey is the "Queen of Christmas", and of course her 1994 single All I Want for Christmas (which is currently No. 1 in the UK) is a Christmas classic! This year she held a special show called Mariah Carey's Magical Christmas Special which features performances from herself and other stars, including singers Ariana Grande and Jennifer Hudson, rapper Snoop Dogg, actress Tiffany Haddish, ballet dancer Misty Copeland, and rapper and producer (and MC's long-time friend) Jermaine Dupri. 

Read more about the special here: https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/mariah-careys-magical-christmas-special/umc.cmc.4dmcdxw4vbu5smkk8f44a1l3

Unfortunately, it's only available on AppleTV+ which I don't have. But for those of us who aren't subscribed to it, we can still listen to the songs featured and see videos on YouTube!

Here's When Christmas Comes, which is from the soundtrack of Mariah Carey's Magical Christmas Special. Mariah has previously sung this with John Legend, but this is a new, solo version. I don't think this is the full song.

 

Watch the video for the version with John Legend here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2016/12/weekly-music-video_21.html

And watch the All I Want for Christmas (Make My Wish Come True) video, plus find links to more Mariah Christmas songs, visit this post: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2019/12/christmas-songs-2019.html

 

Mariah has also teamed up with Ariana Grande and Jennifer Hudson for a new version of her single Oh Santa! I'm planning to feature that as my Weekly Music Video next week. :) 

Listen to the rest of the tracks from the Magical Christmas Special on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnIUCWnY9zw&list=OLAK5uy_ms8v4QWqegPIxZx4mcX-p1gtApljQkBr4

 

Hope you enjoyed the post! Merry Christmas/Happy Festive season (depending on what you celebrate)! :)

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences. The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the D

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo),
