How can you not love Sam Ryder. He has this unique energy, and just throws himself whole heartedly into whatever he is doing, being music, performance, videos... Whatever. This is a great tune. Would love to see it hit the top next Friday.
I f***ing love this man. First, he puts us on the correct side of the eurovision scoreboard, and now he's done something even rarer. He's made a modern-day xmas song with actual xmas cheer. A real rarity in this day and age. Sam Ryder, you are to absolutely be cherished. You really are. 😇
Sam is a Labrador in human form. No matter how cool, down, hard or generally discombobulated, he’s going to shake you out of your introspection and make you feel joy ❤
"For those who can't be here tonight I hope heaven's decking the halls" such a beautiful line - I hope my sister is having the best Christmas party up in heaven.
Nailed it. Achieving what Elton and Ed couldn't. Captures all the elements of what made the oldies great. Best christmas song in years. Get this to number one.
Sam just has this.. energy.. doesn't he? Like, no matter what he does, or where he is, he is just this positive ball of energy that can light up any room. The world needs to be more Sam, that's for sure.
He's incredibly happy and enthusiastic and has a brilliant smile. His image is a bit eccentric but in an era when it's good to celebrate your differences.
This comment should definitely have more likes! 🤣 Absolutely agree and couldn't have said it better myself! His energy is so infectious, I can't help but smile when watching him sing his heart out! 😍
Funny thing about Sam Ryder - you might expect other people to be sad about coming second, but with Sam, it feels somehow like he's arrived and intends to stay - its unfinished business and he IS going to be No.1 at Christmas in the future - I admire an attitude like that!
Amazon have just robbed you of a Christmas no1, this song is a banger. Amazon's arrogance to hide this one away behind their streaming service. Better luck mext year
Sam Ryder is a sensation in bringing good mood and positive energy. I love his songs, his style, the powerful positivity, his fantastic voice. He is my absolute favorite. A very big fan from Germany.
Sam I know you'll probably never read this yourself, but I just want to thank you, I've had a pretty rubbish year and wasn't feeling the festive spirit at all, but I heard this song on the radio last week and your voice, your energy just lifted me up, I watched this video and the whole thing just filled me with happiness, and I finally started to feel the Christmas joy, I saw my family yesterday and they all said how happy I was and how lovely it was to see me jolly! All thanks to this song playing on repeat 🤣 Thank you Sam, you deserve Christmas number one with this! It's absolutely brilliant!! 😍❤️
Sam, I know you'll not read this, but I wanted to thank you. It's been a really tough and difficult year and then I heard your song. Just as.I thought I was getting better, I saw your grinning face and cliched words and immediately wanted to gas myself but unfortunately could not get my shoulders in the oven for a secure seal. But anyway, thanks Sam.
I was beginning to become so jaded with the previous slew of stars turning to Christmas music. The songs were so insipid and lifeless, lacking that essence of Christmas. Then Sam bursts back in to my conciousness with this absolute barnstormer of a Christmas song thats crammed full of festive goodness! Hate to say it but i absolutely love it! Previously to this, my only favourite 'current' Christmas song was 'Underneath The Tree' by Kelly Clarkson.
Such a shame it wasn’t available to stream more widely, this deserved to be the 2023 Christmas number one and would have gone down as a classic in 10 or 20 years’ time as you can hear the influence of the great hits that came before it.
Absolutely love this song! Sam's done a fine job of bringing back the old style Christmas songs and I bet we'll still be listening to it in years to come. Hope he gets No.1 🎉🎉
The Darkness + Slade + Wizzard vibes combined!! Christmas songs are sounding more like Christmas songs used to sound with a guitar solo & saxophones being played back in the good ol' days and I'm happier!!! HAPPY 🎁CHRISTMAS🎄 SAM!
[Chorus] You're the star upon the tree You're the only gift I need And I'd use up all my wishes if it only made you see What a special time of year Full of joy and festive cheer There's no better night for miracles And I believe 'cause you're Christmas to me (Christmas, Christmas to me, yeah) [Verse 1] Ice cold wind as the carollers sing, on the doorstep out in the snow Fire so bright, it's a wonderful life, everybody keeps telling me so And when I see your starry eyes under that mistletoe Make you wanna sing, let the jingle bells ring It's time to rock and roll [Verse 2] Been a whole year, I've been loving you dear Everyday feels more like a dream Snow on the ground, with the shoppers all around, as we walk down Carnaby Street People rushing home to spend the night with family A stocking to the brim, baby it don't mean a thing 'Cause you're Christmas to me [Chorus] You're the star upon the tree You're the only gift I need And I'd use up all my wishes if it only made you see What a special time of year Full of joy and festive cheer There's no better night for miracles And I believe 'cause you're Christmas to me (Oh yeah) You might also like Jingle Bells Christmas Songs Merry Xmas Everybody Slade The Twelve Days of Christmas Christmas Songs [Verse 3] Fairy lights hung, every carols been sung And the mulled wines making me ball To those who can't be here tonight, I hope Heaven's decking the halls Raise a glass to everlasting love for one and all Leave a reindeer treat, only one more sleep 'til Santa comes to call [Chorus] You're the star upon the tree You're the only gift I need And I'd use up all my wishes if it only made you see What a special time of year Full of joy and festive cheer There's no better night for miracles And I believe 'cause you're Christmas to me (Merry Christmas, oh yeah) [Outro] What a special time of year Full of joy and festive cheer There's no better night for miracles And I believe 'cause you're Christmas to me
@@adamant5419 I like this song, it's light hearted and cheerful but also adds in the thought to remember loved ones we've lost and spread love not hate. Not a bad sentiment at all and a typical Christmas message just like other songs. Merry Christmas Adam
I am pleased you feel enriched by this perpetually happy Jesus lookalike. Mercifully I have programmed the children to change the radio as soon as this tedium or ANY Christmas songs come on. The slightest hint of bells, whistles, Band Aid...it's off.@@karenmarie64
I usually hate Christmas songs but sam, you bring so much energy and fun to this song, you can't help but smile and join in!!! Oh no I'm singing along to a Christmas song, no hope for me now!!!!! A rocking Christmas to all❤❤❤❤
I'm an old codger who has lamented the dearth of good new Christmas songs over the last few years. This one is a cracker (d'ya see what I did there 😉) and I reckon destined to become a classic. Peace & love!
Hoping Sam gets the prized Christmas Number 1 this year, about time we had a real musician at the top of the charts after all the ladbaby rubbish of the past few years and the constant bombardment of golden oldies, especially when we have something as glittering as this. Sam's a national treasure and the only one in recent years to give the UK any credibility in the Eurovision. Go Sam
It's now in no.4 in the single charts. The others are no.3 Fairytale Of New York, no.2 All I Want For Christmas Is You and no.1 is Last Christmas. Hope this will be this year's Christmas no.1.
How are the charts working if this song's only on Amazon? Does this TH-cam video affect the chart? Is it fair if Spotify is contributing to the other songs when this is only on Amazon? I really want it to do well
No matter if this ends up at #2 on Friday, I feel a return to the top of the charts is well deserved for our Sam. He is a true hero and criminally underrated.
A proper Christmas banger. Love it. Old school, feel good vibes, sing along lyrics for the whole family to belt out in the car. Awesome. Deserving of reaching no.1 this year for sure.
Even if it doesn't win 2023, this is a Christmas song. This would have been a Christmas song anytime from the 1980s up to the present day. We'll be hearing this one for a great many years to come. Thanks Sam. I mean, a bit of Kelly Clarkson maybe, but this is actually better.
Absolutely love this♥️♥️Thank you so much Sam for finally giving us a Christmas song we can all enjoy and will be listening to for many many Christmas’s from now👌Merry Christmas everyone🎄🎅
Thank God for people like Sam It's so good when all the news is so terrible that we can have a minute just to want to dance around and forget bad things just for a second or two 🎉🎉🎄🎄xxx
I love Sam Ryder hes 1 hell of a singer, 1 of the best for sure his vocals are insane, beautiful British talent, he did the UK so proud in the Eurovision. Would love to see him live. I so love this song for sure. Such Christmas magic right there.
Welcome. It's my first time in Korea. I became a fan after watching the show. I'm touched by your passion for singing. I'm touched again while watching you enjoy the song. The fan service is the best ❤❤❤
Hey Dear 👋 I Just wanted to drop you a message to say THANK YOU for following me and for all the incredible support. It truly means the world to have fans like you on this journey😊🌹 Thank you for being such a big fan
No he isn’t, (almost) the only way for new Christmas songs to break through is by being an Amazon Original. So if he had been on Spotify too, sadly he would have had very little chance. Maybe it will be number 1 next week? It’s still great that it has become a hit!
I'm 86 and I love it. Jig around my kitchen every time it comes on
Merry Christmas to you 💖🎄💃🏼🎉🎉👑🌟
Just don’t hold the teapot at the same time 😆 😊
How can you not love Sam Ryder. He has this unique energy, and just throws himself whole heartedly into whatever he is doing, being music, performance, videos... Whatever. This is a great tune. Would love to see it hit the top next Friday.
Sam has taste playing an N64.
By the way, for me, one of the best original chrimbo songs in ages. Good ol' Sam.
I f***ing love this man. First, he puts us on the correct side of the eurovision scoreboard, and now he's done something even rarer. He's made a modern-day xmas song with actual xmas cheer. A real rarity in this day and age. Sam Ryder, you are to absolutely be cherished. You really are. 😇
I heard the song fit the 1st time earlier n now it's my favourite Christmas song of all time I can't stop listening 2 it
Totally agree
Couldn't have said it better, myself ❤
I have to say its about time we get ourselves a new Christmas song to listen to.... it got a vibe of both new and old... I am loving this!
Was a fix as it was held in the UK the next eurovision. After that we went back to being the .out hated country around lol.
Sam is a Labrador in human form. No matter how cool, down, hard or generally discombobulated, he’s going to shake you out of your introspection and make you feel joy ❤
어서와.한국은 처음이지? 그거 보고 노래가 너무 좋아서 들어왔어요.와..목소리가, 노래가, 당신이란 사람 참 신이 내린 선물같아요.
"For those who can't be here tonight I hope heaven's decking the halls" such a beautiful line - I hope my sister is having the best Christmas party up in heaven.
Bless your heart 💗
Finally a Christmas song that shows tribute to those poor souls I hope they are rocking and rolling everyday 🙏
Nailed it. Achieving what Elton and Ed couldn't. Captures all the elements of what made the oldies great. Best christmas song in years. Get this to number one.
sam Ryders the best i will sure listen to this song after christmas
Literally me rn

And I need to know what conditioner he uses!
I really needed something to make me feel Christmasy, and this has hit the spot perfectly. Smile back in place, let’s go get things sorted 🎉
Funny thing about Sam Ryder - you might expect other people to be sad about coming second, but with Sam, it feels somehow like he's arrived and intends to stay - its unfinished business and he IS going to be No.1 at Christmas in the future - I admire an attitude like that!
Thank you Sam for the best Christmas song of 2023. Looking forward to hearing more from you in 2024!
Amazon have just robbed you of a Christmas no1, this song is a banger. Amazon's arrogance to hide this one away behind their streaming service. Better luck mext year
Amazon are the reason it’s been so successful in the first place.
Delighted for Sam. Such a lovely human.
This deserves to be Christmas NUMBER ONE - brilliant... Just Brilliant, and SAM back to his best...
Love love love
What a great Christmas song
Very vintage in sound t
So full of life… love you Sam x
I love Wham but this should have been Christmas number one. It probably would have been if it had been more widely available on streaming services.
The passion and absolute energy from this song is absolutely truly amazing, such a feel good Christmas song I just hope it comes out on Spotify soon
this rocks
Sam Ryder is a sensation in bringing good mood and positive energy.

Brilliant bring back the wig dance. The tossing of the long hair dance was massive in 70s here in England. Well done Sam a tune that evokes 70s
Absolutely love this song! Sam's done a fine job of bringing back the old style Christmas songs and I bet we'll still be listening to it in years to come. Hope he gets No.1 🎉🎉
Absolutely - a new classic!
Love this song
Best Christmas song this year by far
Mi canción favorita de Navidad!!!😍😍😍 qué alegría verla en este canal!!😁😁😁😊
great fun song. Slade, Wizard and Status Quo all in one .
For those who can’t be here tonight
I hope heavens decking the halls
We raise a glass to everlasting
Love for one and all ..........very good
Best Christmas song for years

Sam, you're a great singer and a nice person.
This song is really amazing! Merry Christmas! 🎄
Just love Sam Ryder. Definitely worth a Number 1spot this year
This guy! Far more talented than many putting out records today! I love HS….but SAM…his voice is just well….perfection!
Wow! This one made me smile. Thanks, Sam!
This man is the pure embodiment of passion , inspiration , and creative talent
You’re being serious?
I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!
One of the Best Christmas Songs ever made!
[Chorus]
You're the star upon the tree
You're the only gift I need
And I'd use up all my wishes if it only made you see
What a special time of year
Full of joy and festive cheer
There's no better night for miracles
And I believe 'cause you're Christmas to me
(Christmas, Christmas to me, yeah)
[Verse 1]
Ice cold wind as the carollers sing, on the doorstep out in the snow
Fire so bright, it's a wonderful life, everybody keeps telling me so
And when I see your starry eyes under that mistletoe
Make you wanna sing, let the jingle bells ring
It's time to rock and roll
[Verse 2]
Been a whole year, I've been loving you dear
Everyday feels more like a dream
Snow on the ground, with the shoppers all around, as we walk down Carnaby Street
People rushing home to spend the night with family
A stocking to the brim, baby it don't mean a thing
'Cause you're Christmas to me
[Chorus]
You're the star upon the tree
You're the only gift I need
And I'd use up all my wishes if it only made you see
What a special time of year
Full of joy and festive cheer
There's no better night for miracles
And I believe 'cause you're Christmas to me
(Oh yeah)

Fairy lights hung, every carols been sung
And the mulled wines making me ball
To those who can't be here tonight, I hope Heaven's decking the halls
Raise a glass to everlasting love for one and all
Leave a reindeer treat, only one more sleep 'til Santa comes to call
[Chorus]
You're the star upon the tree
You're the only gift I need
And I'd use up all my wishes if it only made you see
What a special time of year
Full of joy and festive cheer
There's no better night for miracles
And I believe 'cause you're Christmas to me
(Merry Christmas, oh yeah)
[Outro]
What a special time of year
Full of joy and festive cheer
There's no better night for miracles
And I believe 'cause you're Christmas to me
"The mulled wine's making me fall", not ball.
how deep and meaningful....zzzzzzzz

Excellent.
I think Sam is running on the most powerful batteries ever!!! Wish I had his energy, he’s potty but in a lovely way ….. oh great voice too Sam
I guess I will be listening to Christmas music all year now. This song is just too good to limit it for such a short time
This should have been the Christmas No.1!!!
Sam... he is a star
YESSS This is feelgood ALL THE WAY!
I wish this was on Apple Music! This song is an absolute banger! 🎄🔥

Now this will help get into the Christmas Spirit, thanks for the festive love Sam.
Merry Christmas and thank you for another wonderful year of videos!
No matter if this ends up at #2 on Friday, I feel a return to the top of the charts is well deserved for our Sam. He is a true hero and criminally underrated.

New Year Eve and still listen to it ❤
It NEEDS to be put on other platforms. He’s doing himself out of a guaranteed No1 here!!
No he isn’t, (almost) the only way for new Christmas songs to break through is by being an Amazon Original.
So if he had been on Spotify too, sadly he would have had very little chance. Maybe it will be number 1 next week? It’s still great that it has become a hit!
Gracias por tu entrega. Y Feliz Navidad 🎄❤
Great song, Great music, Great melody, and absolutely fantastic pyjamas. 🥳🌲
You deserve to win the Christmas song Sam it’s brilliant 🎉
🎄Whatever the weather.. Sam is always Sunshine Sam 🎤 ☀ MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE ☀💛🙏
This song should have been number 1!
Haha, bonkers, happy and a bop. Great to see him with his team of friends usually in the background. Love it 🎅🎄👏🫶⚡
Not for me personally but I wish him success. All the lovely comments are great. A lot of people really love this and that’s what it’s all about
