The holiday season is upon us, and you know what that means: Christmas tunes! Earlier in the week, BFFs Ed Sheeran and Elton John teased a Christmas collaboration, simply called "Merry Christmas." "Christmas has come early," went the tweet, along with a video of Sheeran holding up cue cards à la that scene in Love Actually.
Sheeran and John's "Merry Christmas" indeed has lots of sleigh bells and is out now. The video features cameos from the Darkness' Justin Hawkins, UK TV personalities Jonathan Ross and Michael McIntyre, and others.
Just under a year ago, I called @edsheeran to see if he wanted to make a Christmas single with me and now it’s nearly here!
