  • Master parffick

  • Love it! You can tell that Rick has had a hand in writing it, it's got the Quo style guitar in :)

  • What's not to like? Rolf and Rick, two legends, just a bit of fun.

  • Great link Mr Chowder - and seasonal to. Merry Christmas everybody and enjoy your Christmas in the Sun (unless you're in Melbourne, but you can enjoy yourselves looking for that big ball of string instead).

  • Cool

  • it's August and I'm listening to this song. Can't feel grumpy listening to this!

  • I love it...come and join us for a Christmas in the Sun!!

  • Yes it's a bit poor and I get the feeling they didn't even record the music together and a sneaking suspicion that it was filmed in Dorset but you've still gotta love it.....

    and it's better than listening to Status Quo all Xmas round!!

  • @candisuxxgood !!!!!!!!!! whats wrong with Quo all Xmas ? Quo all year for that matter would make the world a happier boogieing place :-)

  • lol i heard this when it came out last year and i was like before i saw rick parfitt, this is so status quo its not a really great quality song but something about it makes it so awesome and lovable!! i wish francis rossi played on it too though :( still.. i love it!

  • we love Rolf. Ya Good luck Rolf. Johnboy.

  • This is the first time I've heard this and can't help but slightly like it.

  • fucking awesome ;)

  • its so bad its fucking bad yet awesome

  • funny ;) hehe i love it

  • C'mon dont winge, its a bit of laugh so lighten up.

    miserable gobshites.

  • @pipbottle hear hear

  • The legend that is Rolf Harris!!! Unique!!!

  • God bless you Rolf you rock mate love this little diddy cheers to you and the band your still fantastic after all these years.

  • what a dick

  • R u a yank ? got the bite I was looking for , sorry dickhead , in Oz we call u the classic wanker mate

  • Rolf is a living Legend , he is up there with the King of Rock & Roll "Elvis" You whinging mob of dickheads get some true Aussie culture in YA!!

  • rolfs t shirt colour keeps changing

  • I like Rolf, I've got good memories or his Cartoon Club when I was a kid. But you've got to be honest, this is diabolical.

  • Have to agree with you. Respect to Rolf, and I'm sure the quo boys are nice chaps, but this piece of noise is an utter abomination.

  • utter shit.

  • oh, c'mon you lads don't have a fookin' sense of humor or good time. And Quo really rocks behind Rolf! (that's both Rick and Andy Bown behind Rolf and Wayne Morris)

  • ROFL is this for real? dont tell me people actually paid money for this shite

  • My mind just melted listening to that!

    Is that a positive or negative comment? That's up to you people who just can't let anyone else have an opinion. Enjoy the dilema!

  • rolf is god

  • I love this video clip....alwaaaysss

  • Ach wenn ich Weihnachten überhaupt nicht abgewinnen kann...

    Das Lied finde ich toll :-) - sogar noch im Januar

  • Good old Rolf!

  • Very good.

  • I'd love to be as active as Rolf when I get that old

  • I love this song!!!!! Rolf harris Hu Chick

  • fuck yeah aussie chrissie :D

  • I still think this is the best Xmas song this year. Just take it for what it is - a bit of fun. Very catchy as well. I love the 'Whatever You Want' references at the end.

  • It's just a happy song.

    If you need to lighten up to enjoy it, you definitely need to lighten up.

    Happy homeless baby hebrew day everyone

  • @mightyweezer - please note - this is written by Rolf Harris and not Klondike Pete - so check you facts before moaning!

  • iYes I'm a ridgy didge fair dinkum Aussie and all British folk are called "Poms" down here, t's short for Pommegranate which is the same colour their fair skin turns after spending Christmas in the sun ;)

  • POHM

    Prisoner of His/Her Majesty

  • HAPPY CHRISTMAS ROLF!!!!!

  • Time to retire, Rolf. This is inane.

    And what is that dog even doing there at 2:03??

  • @Pickleguy24 - see the interview with Paul O' Grady to see why two dogs in the video..By the way - the video is GREAT !!!!!! - MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!!

  • Status Quo are the best group there's ever been - this would have been great....without Rolf Harris!!

  • @Indigenousduck - get a life and enjoy christmas!

  • I've got a life and am enjoying Xmas.

    What's your problem.... all you got for Xmas was nappy rash?

  • @Indigenousduck - no problem - merry christmas

  • 30 degrees in Auckland New Zealand................Yes! Yes Yes...Christmas in the Sun Rocks (song is a nice change from the norm too) And if you want snow in this country, for a White Christmas, just go south for a bit and you're into it...peace

  • Ok offbeat but yeah it works, Merry Christmas!

  • I like it. On ya Rolf.

  • Thanks Rolf, Merry Christmas and Good on ya mate.

  • It's meant to be sunny-ish in New Zealand... I know this is Australian but same sort of Christmas traditions - beaches, bbqs and whatnot =D

  • Quo fan, but thats just bloody awful.

  • @Nuggett58 You are the smartest person. EVER. (Rolf's past his use by date, hey?)

  • Long live Rolf..!!!

  • 2009 christmas in australia is suppose to be raining :(

  • i dont think it is over here in WA PERTH well its like 40 degrees and i highly doubt it well it would be ironic thou

  • Pity he cannot sing any more.................

  • Not the Australia I live in....then, I actually live here.

  • I can't believe he's 80 next year. What an unbelieable talent! Certainly broke the mold when they made him.

  • I remember watching Rolf and his wobble board on a kids show back in the 60's. He painted the most amazing pictures using a large painter's brush like you would use on a house. And he was lightning fast, taking only a couple of minutes to paint a wall mural. What's more amazing though is he is still going strong.

    Sure he's a dag, that's why we Aussies love him.

  • Why does he keep changing shirts?

  • Because the sun never shines where they filmed that and they had to film it over 10 months!

  • Ironic really, haha and the song is about having Christmas in the sun...

  • GO HARRIS!!! I had to sing your songs in Year 5 Choir lol

  • I love the moment with the embarrassed woman and the dog in the background.

  • And Francis Rossi isn't involved in this.

  • Rolf is actually 80 next year. What a star!

  • how come the other guy in status quo earn no credits....Francis Rossi....after all he is the lead guitarist!

  • are you kidding me. Rolf harris has that much talent he is 70 next year! and you are saying that, that is un Australian mmm yeah real smart. i think that he is going very well for a 69 year old. and you call that un Australian.

  • ROFL HARRIS

  • you win an internet

  • As an athiest this is deeply offensive to my non-religious beleifs lol

  • FAIL!!!!!

  • Hi

    Nice to see Rolf Harris and the status Quo, singing a rock song like chritsmas.I think it is good and all of them seem to had fun in making it. Rolf Harris is a legend in Australia and the UK. many of us still love him!!!!!

  • screw all the negative comments! you frikking hate the guy, why the hell you watch the bloody clip? you're such losers, taking out on poor Rolf, so what if he lives in bloody UK or London or whatever and enjoys Australia more, its his bloody life! get over yourselves! Rolf Harris is a bloody legend,

  • @MultiJay18 _ QUITE CORRECT - in your comments - stuff the negative comments where a monkey keeps his **@@!!!

  • thats not bad, very funny, isnt it.

  • How embarassing...how un australian.

    Could of at least done it on a real australian beach.

  • @arffrossco - LISTEN to the words and if you still do not get it - see the interview clip with Paul O' Grady - At least there is no swearing like th current UK number one!!!!

  • Don't say bad things about Rolf!

    He's a much-loved elder statesman.

  • Oh god... Rolf Harris. Never really understood why you Brits seem to love anything he throws at you, ugh. Not Australia's proudest export, really...

  • Sorry, I think I'm taking the absence of the wobbleboard in this song a bit hard...

  • @brubobaggins - YES HE HIS !!! ONLY KYLIE HAS BETTER LEGS !! (2 of them of course!)

  • Hey, I like it. That Morris fella sure got Rossi's licks down cold.

  • Without doubt, the most fun song this year - musically it's not a great deal, but it's catchy, and everyone I've played it too has smiled for ages afterwards. That's what an Xmas song used to be - not the X-factor commercial crap that we've had to put up with, probably more so this year than any other.

    For the guy who was interested, the chords at the beginning are A - Cdim, Bm-E, (ukelele tuned to A). The verse bit switches between A and E.

  • That is so NOT an Australian beach!

  • check out are spoof on this video

  • I met Rolf in the Sixties when I was about 8 years old, he even sighned me an autograph with that classic kangeroos self portrait, ive lost it but would love another!! This song is so addictive !! great combo with the Quo beat!! love it

  • the original version is better actually. he released a version on a 3 track cd in the back of an edition of "6 white boomers." picture book. much more melancholy and brings back so many memories of aussie christmas's ! oh and pavlova kicks arse!

  • I was going to say it, but mythicaljake says it better! ;-)

  • Fuck Bobby McXFactor, and fuck Rage Against the Machine. Rolf Harris should've got number one :3

  • I like Rolf!

    I love status quo, I see them every year.

    But combine the two and you get this heap of shite! I mean this is pathetically laughable! Maybe that's the appeal! I can't stop bloody singing like Rolf now. I'm going round the house goin ' christmaas in tha San'

  • I totally agree the song absolute bull shit, but do not feel that it is at-all catchy

  • @daves106 - if you keep singing it around the hous  - you may find you like it !!!

  • Love it matey!!

  • Love it!!  Rolf can do no wrong. I'd like to join the ranks who are wishing him to be crowned 'Sir Rolf'. Arise, the most talented all-round artist and entertainer of our time.

  • status quo xD

  • sort it out quo that is bloody crap used to be an ex cellent band no more they are becoming thier own tribute band. still awesome live though

  • Arise Sir Rolf. I met him in the street once, a top top man who is exactly the same off the tv as he is on it.

  • He lives in Maidenhead Uk ..... Aussie cant be that good !!!

  • Auzzie rocks beyond all belief, i hate being back here (born and bred Pom)

  • Another brilliant piece of Rolf ... it's about time Australia and the UK recognised his creative contribution ..

    Sir Rolf ..... in 2010

  • Great Fun

  • Nice one! I am happy to stay in the UK for Christmas but why oh why can't they make snow that's warm, I am sure that snow was warmer when I was young..... But then again, that was in the stone age!!!

  • I also wish for warm snow... Scientifically speaking snow should be warm, well sort of, freezing is an exothermic reaction this means it releases energy as heat.

  • love it

  • Come on now TheTattz, it's Christmas...no need for that. And besides, Rick is a Pom and we love him down here!

  • Nice song Rolf but can you delete the line "C'mon down and join us"? We've got enough Pommy bastards here all ready.

  • just got back from a quo gig in blackpool omg, anything quo is awesome and so is this!!!!

  • Hated it but its growing i didnt want it to but im found of rolf and the quo. Weather it will stand test off time who knows.

  • great best xmas song this year ,

  • Class!

  • ABSOLUTE MAGIC!! !! - GO ROLF GO!!

  • great i love it, a real feel good song

  • Even by Rolf Harris standards, this is dreadful.

  • Comment removed

  • ..he's nearly 80... give him a break!!

  • How can that not put a smile on your face. Rolf and Rick, love ya both!

  • can ya tell what it is yet??

  • A good cheer up for the time of year - it's what it should be & typical of Quo.

    Keep up the good work and keep ROCKIN' for many years to come:)

  • Brilliant! Another classic from the legend!

    Sadly songs like this get overshadowed at Christmas by the pile of vomit that the people from X Factor put out :(

  • lol

  • Very cool :-) Hi Danny, thanks for sending this link to me :-)

    Merry Christmas Everybody !!!

    Greetings from Finland.

  • Rolf for Christmas no1 !!!!

  • cool!!! Love it.

  • ..another classic from THE classic!! ..

    ONYA ROLFY!!

  • I saw Status Quo live last night at Wembley Arena. They didn't play this one for some reason...

  • ..wouldn't be the same without Rolf!

  • Exactly, I might enjoy my christmas without him.

  • Fanbleedintastic......Rolf is a legend :)

  • OMG, LOVE IT,,, rolf u ledgend !!!

  • thank you veniceblue - you're absolutely right :) Klondike Pete and the huskies' video winter wonderland rocks liek the Quo we love. Not this!

  • I love this song just been to perth and its amazing

  • Comment removed

  • Yep this an Aussie Christmas! Rolf you are a Perth legend!

  • Cuanto más lo oigo, más me gusta, sobretodo esos guiños al whatever you want y la forma en que termina el vídeo caminando los tres como en algún otro vídeo de los quo.

    Gracias

  • This is a excellent song by a legend

  • finaly a great song about down under christmas ,no snow down here just good spirits and sunshine. get over it upper hemisphere, life is good all over the world , quo sound rocks . thank-you Rolf

  • Rolfs' next No 1. (His last was Stairway to Heaven if you don't remember.)

  • 'Onya, Cob! It's great fun and good to see you still so cheery and bouncy. It wasn't a beach in Oz, but: the sea's much too flat with no rolling breakers. Happy Christmas to you and the mighty Quo.

  • Redcliffe near Brisbane looks very much like that.

  • Dubbo in Western NSW doesn't look anything like that...

  • Yeah sure its cheesier than a fondue, but for christ sake, its just a fun song, at least Rolf not an angy old geeza, sitting back in a rocking chair, moaning about how no one has any respect, I've never heard a bad work from him, he's always got a smile on his face!! Love him or loath him, ya gotta say " good on ya Rolf ya old bugga , give it a go!!! "

  • there's another xmas song by Quo "Its Christmas time" - U tube it....... whats the difference?? have they got two Xmas songs out????

  • Wonderful song

  • @BENJAMIN292929 This is awful you fucking IDIOT.

  • You "A" holes wouldn't know a good happy song if it came and bit you on your miserable pathetic backsides. Keep on rocking boys.

  • Nothing like a daggy song so every daggy dad can sing along to and annoy the family over christmas.

    Could've at least put a bit of tinsel on the dogs walking along the beach.

    That last bit...Does he really think he's as funny as the Goodies? rofl at rolf.

  • cant believe hes writing songs about weed now

  • Rolf can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned

  • Ha Ha...dead corny....a big improvement on "it's Chrismas time" by you know Quwho

  • Rolf Harris is practically turning into Father Christmas, so who can deny him another shot at number one? Go Rolf!!!!

  • Ther was also a hint of Genesis at the end (Three guys and that walk).
