More about this title
Why we love this
Alan Billingsley's arrangement captures the playful energy of the original while keeping the SSA voicing accessible and fun to sing. The call-and-response structure between parts keeps everyone engaged, and that rap breakdown gives your singers something genuinely different to learn and perform. It's exactly the kind of novelty number that lands on a holiday concert without feeling saccharine.
What to expect
Retro-pop charm meets modern comedy. The song bounces with that signature Meghan Trainor swing, full of playful call-and-response moments and punctuated by a rap section that keeps everyone laughing. It's irreverent without being disrespectful, and it lands as genuine entertainment rather than musical gimmickry.
Who it's for
Choirs looking for a contemporary, high-energy holiday number that appeals to singers and audiences alike. This works equally well for middle school through adult choirs and fits programs that celebrate pop repertoire alongside traditional fare.
How to get the most out of it
- Lock the rhythmic precision during the call-and-response sections. The humor lands only when the exchanges snap back and forth with crisp articulation and tight ensemble.
- Work the rap breakdown separately from the main voices. Those lyrics need clarity and character; treat them as a comedic moment rather than just another sung section.
- Use the recorded accompaniment to anchor your rehearsals early on. The groove pocket is tight, and learning against it prevents rushed tempos when you move to a cappella moments.
- Shape the dynamics to match the novelty tone. This isn't subtle; lean into the brightness of SSA voicing and let the infectious pop energy shine through.
How to use it
Schedule this for the second half of your holiday concert, after your audience is warmed up and ready for fun. It works as a palate-cleanser between more serious pieces or as the closing number to send people out smiling. The novelty appeal makes it strong on pops concerts or informal holiday celebrations too.
