Uno de los referentes de la navidad son, lógicamente, los villancicos y, si hay uno que destaque en la música moderna, es la canción de Mariah Carey «All I Want For Christmas Is You».

De hecho, hay un meme, que sale cada año, como identificativo de los días que vienen, que es este:

(«Ya empieza»).

A mí no es que me guste mucho la navidad, prácticamente nada, pero este vídeo, de esta canción me ha parecido genial. Se trata del Carpool de James Corden, una sección del programa de este presentador estadounidense «The Late Late Show«, donde invita a cantantes y artistas de todo el mundo a subirse a su coche y cantar, como hacemos muchos, canciones propias o de otros.

En este caso, había invitado a Mariah Carey, que le dice que quiere cantar su tema de navidad y, la sorpresa llega cuando salen invitados de programas anteriores, en un videomontaje, interpretando esta misma canción. El resultado ya lo veis, muy divertido!

La letra:

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don’t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree

I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you, yeah.

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
And I don’t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree

I don’t need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won’t make me happy
With a toy on Christmas Day

I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You, baby

Oh, I won’t ask for much this Christmas
I won’t even wish for snow
And I’m just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe

I won’t make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won’t even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click

‘Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do?
Baby, all I want for Christmas is you
You, baby

Oh, all the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children’s
Laughter fills the air

And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa, won’t you bring me the one I really need?
Won’t you please bring my baby to me?

Oh, I don’t want a lot for Christmas
This is all I’m asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door

Oh, I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby, all I want for Christmas is you
You, baby

All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
