every Christmas, my goal is to be festive and to celebrate. And it's really, it's funny because when you said this Christmas business, I know that it's a business, but it really is a true, I don't know how to explain it except that I think I love it more than anybody. And I really think the special is going to make people get in the Christmas spirit.

I can't create like festiveness for people if they I mean, I can try. I do try. But if they're not into it, I can't make them have as much fun as I do with it. But, you know.

I go over the top. Yeah, it's an over-the-top thing. I'm sitting here with Christmas trees in my house. Like, there's eight trees here. Whatever. It's completely over the top.

Because when I first did it, I was like, am I really doing a Christmas song right now? This feels very premature to me. And I really have to say it was such a smart decision to do it. And All I Want for Christmas is You was the first song that I wrote and recorded for that album.

Thinking about it, like there's been people that said to me, you wrote All I Want for Christmas Is You? Like grown adults that assumed it was a remake because that was the vibe I was trying to give it in terms of making the record in the first place and writing the song.

I don't know that there is one specific note. I know that I would be doing, let's say, the Tokyo Dome, right? Even in July, when the bells that begin the song, the ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, when that would start, because it was always a very calm audience, like a different experience culturally. And then the bells came on. And it's like the place suddenly woke up even in the summer.

It became this thing where you're like, wow, people really know it from the first bell.

So I remember Christmas Day last year, I was sitting in Aspen in the house, three o'clock in the morning, had seen the billboard piece. It was such a feeling of, not just a feeling of accomplishment, but also a feeling of joy. content, like really feeling at peace, really feeling extremely thankful just for the moment and just taking a beat to enjoy it and to acknowledge it.
