Christmas Music Round-up

It's a week till Christmas today (seems to have come round quick again!), so this week's post is festive themed. :)

Back in 2018 I wrote a post called Christmas Music, featuring previous posts with Christmas videos and sharing some songs not previously posted. You can see that here (heavy on Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande!): https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2018/12/christmas-music.html

For 2021 I'm sharing Christmas songs posted in the last 3 years, plus some new ones. :)

Mariah Carey, Khalid and Kirk Franklin- Fall in Love At Christmas

My favourite singer Mariah Carey loves Christmas and her song All I Want for Christmas Is You is a modern classic!  For the 2nd year in a row, she is having a TV Christmas show. Following the success of last year's Mariah Carey's Magical Christmas Special, this year she is hosting Mariah's Christmas: The Magic Continues which premiered on Apple TV+ on 3rd December.

Unfortunately, if you don't have Apple TV+ (like me) then you can't see it. :( But you can see a trailer here: https://www.apple.com/tv-pr/news/2021/11/apple-tv-and-mariah-carey-unveil-trailer-for-holiday-spectacular-mariahs-christmas-the-magic-continues-set-to-debut-globally-on-friday-december-3/

Mariah's latest single is Fall in Love at Christmas which features singer Khalid and choir director and gospel singer Kirk Franklin. It was released on 5th November and was featured on The Magic Continues. Her twins Monroe and Moroccan appear in the video, which was actually directed by Mariah and her boyfriend choreographer/dancer Bryan Tanaka. (You may remember him from her show Mariah's World!) :)

Stray Kids- 24 to 25

Now for some K-pop! This is 24 to 25 by Korean boyband Stray Kids. It's from their holiday special single album Christmas EveL, which was released on 29th November. The other songs on the single album are lead single (and title track) Christmas EveL and Winter Falls, and Domino (English version).

24 to 25 is a sweet song about spending Christmas with a loved one,  a message to the fans who are called "STAYS" (the fandom name is STAY). Click "Subtitles/Closed Captions" for English subtitles! :)

 



Christmas EveL

If you're not feeling too festive, check the video for the title track Christmas EVeL ("Christmas Evil" instead, which is more of an "anti-Christmas" song!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57n4dZAPxNY

 

Winter Falls  

And here is a Winter Falls, a song about reflecting on a break-up during the winter season: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4qK-Gzyws0

 

Hope you liked 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),
