Lyrics:

Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?
It's the time that every Santa has a ball
Does he ride a red-nosed reindeer?
Does a-ton up on his sleigh
Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?

So here it is Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

Are you waiting for the family to arrive?
Are you sure you got the room to spare inside?
Does your granny always tell ya that the old songs are the best?
Then she's up and rock 'n' rollin' with the rest

So here it is Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

What will your Daddy do
When he sees your Mama kissin' Santa Claus?
Ah ah

Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?
Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall?
Do you ride on down the hillside in a buggy you have made?
When you land upon your head then you've been Slade

So here it is Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

So here it is Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

So here it is Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

So here it is Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

How does this only have 2.6M views? It's one of the most iconic Christmas songs I grew up with in the UK.

[AustrackEquipment]

An absolute gem, all the ingredients for a good Christmas song funny, happy, raucous, simple and to be young again (born 1954)

[bennettnez]

As an American I only know this song because it was in most of the Doctor Who specials. Now its my favorite christmas song.

[ciarantaylor-hodge]

It's not Christmas until Noddy Holder says it is!

[khonrak]

[star]

Still the number 1 christmas song in my book 😊👍🤩

[marleybu]

Always loved when Noddy shouts "it's Christmas!" Pure nostalgia!

[toiletsponge]

Objectively the best Christmas song of all time. Absolute banger. One of the only Christmas songs that still slams even when it's not even Christmas yet

[LoganL]

50 years later and still the greatest christmas song imo.

[RokhartMusic]

Released 12 December 1973 - 50 YEARS AGO TODAY! And yes, I AM old enough to remember it in the charts. Merry Xmas Slade. Merry Xmas Everybody.

50 years now and still the best Christmas song❤

I remember listening to this the first time it was played on Radio 1. It was played at about 7.50 am one morning, and I missed my bus to school! Back in the 1970s, the ‘premiere’ of a new record on Radio 1 was a big thing.

[waynemoro]

Love this song. Especially when near the end Noddy says 'It's Christmas'. Makes the hairs on my neck stand. Totally Thanks

[Risky]

This song is so special, the music, the lyrics and the voice of this song really makes you feel something different, which you can’t explain.. but you felt it.

[chriswylie]

Knowing the history behind the recording of this makes it even more special

[margarethood]

This is one of my 100 per cent favourite songs for Christmas .

[peterhutchins]

Maybe, the greatest Christmas pop song of all time.

[Rikewhstore]

Anyone listening in 2024? Even if we’re not in November and December
