Noddy Holder shouting It's Christmas from Slade's Merry Xmas Everybody. A festive singing clip people drop into videos and messages when the holidays arrive.

This is the famous closing shout from Slade's festive anthem, with lead singer Noddy Holder stretching out the words It's Christmas in a loud, hoarse, joyful yell. The clip builds for a few seconds before that big delivery lands, full of glam rock energy and pub singalong spirit. It instantly signals that the party has started and nobody needs to take it seriously. Hearing it turns an ordinary scene into a Christmas moment, which is why the line feels warm, nostalgic and funny even when it is dropped in completely out of season.

Slade released Merry Xmas Everybody in December 1973, and the record reached number one in the UK that Christmas. Written by Noddy Holder and bassist Jim Lea, it became the band's best known song and a permanent part of British festive culture, returning to radio, television and the charts almost every December since. Holder's stretched final shout is the part most people imitate, quote and share out of context, turning a glam rock chorus ending into a standalone festive announcement online.

Pro Tip for Usage

Place the build-up just before a reveal, present opening or lights switch-on, then let the full It's Christmas shout land exactly on the cut. Keep music low underneath, add no extra effects, and let the yell ring out before dialogue resumes.

Use Cases

  • Drop it when Christmas decorations first appear on screen.
  • Use it to announce a festive giveaway or party.
