What's really funny is how you made a beautiful video for a song that Will says is the worst! The video is really pretty and the lyrics are beyond sryupy, on purpose of course. So kudos to you mate, and happy Christmas!
I was looking a song for my students to sing, and then Santa`s super sleigh came to my mind. I didn`t know that it is fictional, but of course i`ve seen `about a boy ` many times so I guess my brain did it unconciously. I love the movie and this song too. Than you for posting it.
Thanks for downloading this from my annual christmas compilation. I try to put quirky stuff on there for people to discover, and I too had been looking for this song for years.
This is “a famous song” which people “always sang” and is “on every Christmas album ever made”. A one hit wonder penned by Charles Freeman in 1938 which, for its author, was “a terrible reminder of how badly he had failed in his life”.
(Paraphrased from Nick Hornby’s entirely fictional novel “About A Boy”)
