    Stunning! Thank you for an amazing song. You sure it shouldn't be "every girl and boy" rather than "every boy and girl"?

      😄sorry for switching them around! You aren’t the first to ask so I’ll answer here.. It was intentional. The original composer Edmund and myself chatted about this change, the original was rhyming ”joy” “boy” at the end of phrases
      but melodies are quite different between those two lines so we decided to not worry about rhyming and rather the vocal performance, particularly the vowel chosen on the high note.
      When we filmed/recorded with the choir it took a couple takes to get used too!! Understandable people are so used the other way!
      Glad you enjoyed the song 😊🙏✨

    LYRICS🏖🎄✨
    You won’t see any snow fall
    At this time of year
    No reindeer in the valley
    As the Mistletoe appears
    And underneath the blue sky
    Is a perfect summers day
    with beaches filled with people
    All the beauty on display
    Cause when it's Christmas in Cape Town
    There's happiness and joy
    And smiles upon the faces
    Of every boy and girl
    The sun is shining brightly
    Over mountains and the seas
    When it’s Christmas in Cape Town
    It’s a special place, to be
    Take a walk on Table Mountain
    Or the grand parade
    And we’ll see the minstrels dancing
    With an umbrella for shade

    In the night-time there’ll be music
    New people you can meet
    And the lights will shine down brightly
    All the way down Adderley Street
    And there’s not another place I’d rather be
    Cause when it's Christmas in Cape Town
    There's happiness and joy
    And smiles upon the faces
    Of every boy and girl
    The sun is shining brightly
    Over mountains and the seas
    When it’s Christmas in Cape Town
    It’s a special place, to be
    When it's Christmas in Cape Town
    There's happiness and joy
    And smiles upon the faces
    Of every boy and girl
    The sun is shining brightly
    Over mountains and the seas
    When it’s Christmas in Cape Town
    It’s a special place, to be
    (to be)
    And the sun is shining brightly
    Over mountains and the seas
    When it’s Christmas in Cape Town
    It’s a special place, for me
