  • to be honest, I can kinda agree with scrooge, in how he doesn't understand the specialness of christmas. Why are people only really nice and pleasant to one another on one day of the year? why do family members and friends u haven't heard from all year decide that now is a good time to make an effort to contact u? I'd rather have people bother with me for 364 days of the year n forget me on one, than have people remember me for only one day n forget me 364 days of the year...

  • @KrazyChick17 "The message if we hear it is make it last all year"

  • @GonejaDash trouble is, most people don't...

  • @KrazyChick17 Well said. 

  • "It is the summer of the soul in December"

    Or, if you live in the southern hemisphere like me, it just is summer.

  • I've watched this every year since I was 3. Good God, the nostLgia

  • Brings me back to childhood :D

  • Merry Christmas!!!!!

  • munch you dawg merry x-mas

  • I love this film soooo much!

  • Merry Christmas one and all!

  • The passing of the ghost of christmas present, always makes me sad

  • Love this movie. The Muppets were the perfect vehicle for the humanity and the creativeness of A Christmas Carol. Michael Cain spends most of this movie "reacting" and he is fantastic.

  • BEST XMAS MOVIE EVER!!! I love this can't wait to watch it with my family tonight as we do every year!! Merry Christmas to all x

  • one of the best version of a christmas carol

  • The best xmas film ever, FACT! Right now my little girl is dancing round the room. Thankyou Mr henson. Brilliant!!

  • I want michael caine to embrace me in heaven when i die ....p.s. how the hell can 17 people dislike the muppets!

  • My favorite Christmas movie

  • 1:58-2:17 for some reason those child muppets (the ones singing "la-lala-la-la") make me and my sisters rotfl

  • Ghost of Christmas Present: Uhh...did I already comment on this video?

  • My family bought this movie when it came out on VHS years ago, and we now have the DVD. It's become a tradition to watch it every year just before Christmas. It's still my favorite adaptation of A Christmas Carol as well as one of my favorite Christmas movies of all time! This song makes me so happy :)

  • This is the best Muppet/Batman crossover ever! Alfred Pennyworth: The Butler Behind the Batman!

  • notice that the choir director at 1:58 - 2:17 is smoking a cigarette.

  • @mrCrispy1979 Try a pitch pipe for the choir...

  • @rfrady The muppet is named Benson and even the muppet website confirms that he is depicted with "a cigarette perpetually dangling from his lip." You can find other videos of Benson and the Baby Band online where he has his trademark cigarette in them.

  • 17 people don't feel like Christmas.

  • This was on TV at the beginning of December and this song made me cry.

    AND 3:24 when they start spinning around the Ghost made me incredibly happy. Those waistcoats just look so great when you dance!

  • 3:05 always gives me goosebumps ^^

  • Michael Caine is an Excellent dancer.

  • @Odakicity I love how Scrooge tries to dance exactly like the ghost :D

  • ghost of christmas present's laugh sounds like Santa

  • @starfire608 Well, he also kinda LOOKS like him too...

  • This sort of warms my heart a tad bit! I watch this every year, but this song is definitely my favourite.

  • Oh god this is the best christmas song ever~!

  • @steviebobs741 your face is shit

  • love it sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oo much

  • FUCKING MEMORIES 

  • michael 'candy' caine

  • Best version of the Christmas Carol ever.

  • I still believe this was the masterpiece by the Henson company.

  • @mobycat It's defenatly one of the best.

    My heart will always lie with The Labyrinth though.

  • "You're a little absent minded spirit, aren't you?" 'No, I'm a large absent minded spirit hohohoho"

  • Im a large absent minded spirit...oh ho ho hooooo

  • I've watched this movie every year at Christmas time since it came out and it always resonates deeply to remind me the true spirit of the holidays.

  • I FREAKING LOVE THIS MOVIE

  • you did yeah," lol

  • by this point in the movie, Scrooge seems a happier man already he's making jokes and laughing and smiling, he seems less snappy and sarcastic as well

  • 2.01 FTW!!

  • 3:47

    Ebenezer Groove :)

  • "It is the summer of the soul in December"

    Wow.

  • COME IN AND KNOW ME BETTER, MAN!!!

  • 16 people feel like Scrooge

  • ❤ :)

  • Favorite Christmas movie hands down !!

  • Truly one of the greatest movies of all time! A real masterpiece.

  • This song always makes me feel warm ♥

  • i know this song because am in choir

  • It's in the singing of a street corner choir It's going home and getting warm by the fire It's true Wherever you find love It feels like Christmas A cup of kindness that we share with another A sweet reunion with a friend or a brother In all the places you find love It feels like Christmas It is the season of the heart A special time of caring the ways you so love clear it is the sean of the sprit and the messege if we hear it the ways of love make clear
  • why is it that this film can never fail to make me understand the true meaning of christmas!?

  • Comment removed

  • Does it get better than this?

  • Bah humbug

  • I suspect 16 people will be visited by 3 spirits this Christmas

  • best part of any xmas film <3

  • why would anyone dislike this?

  • @MicrophoneFarmer Beats me!

  • i LOVE the Ghost of Christmas present. he makes me so happy :D. he's the best. i watched the one with jim carry and that one creeped me out. THIS movie is my favorite!

  • This song give me warm fuzzies!

  • this is the happiest song ever i enjoy the booty bumping horses at 3:02 and at 3:36

  • this is the happiest song ever i enjoy the booty bumping horses

  • They played this on the Hub Station last night.

  • @joeywomer yes, it was the version missing when love is gone. :(

  • The best thing about this movie is the characters are treated like they are real and believable, not like puppets. Micheal caine did a fantastic job interacting with them on it.

  • this and A Child's Christmas in Wales are two movies that my family ALWAYS watches together at Christmas. (Oh, and A Christmas Story on Thanksgiving night, obviously.) :D this is my favorite song from this movie, though!!

  • "No, I'm a LARGE absent-minded spirit! OOOH HOHOHOHO!"

    that line always tickled me. XD

    and I agree - this is one of my favorite Christmas movies ever. There are few things that compare to the wisdom of the Muppets. :)

  • This is the perfect representation of Christmas. My family and I ALWAYS watch this movie when I come to visit them during the holidays. It is the best tradition we've ever had.

  • Who are the Scrooges who disliked this?!

  • BABY PUNCH! (2:00) Just like the Goat punch in Treasure Island. Love the Muppets.

  • I love the ghost of Christmas Present.

  • I love the mice :)

  • This is arguably the catchiest song in the movie. I love it.

  • What is with the 15 Scrooge's that disliked this?!?!?! Clearly they haven't been visited by the 3 ghosts of Christmas yet!!

  • @YankeeGem87 Hopefully that will all change on Christmas eve this year ( ;

  • this song is christmas. honesly, everything he says, is just so true. chrismas is about love <3

  • So this is what Alfred did before he was a butler?

  • @dinglewolfman And before this he was killin' Zulu's xD

  • I seriously can't see Michael as a mean character in a movie. He's too "Alfred" for that! ;)

  • 1.18. in all honesty, spirit, no. in all honesty, spirit yes, rum please.

  • "A part of childhood we'll always remember, it is the summer of the soul in December" Best description of Christmas EVER!

  • "The message if we hear it, is make it last all year!"

    Damn straight, im listining to this in September and (even though its like 90 degrees outside) it feeeels like Christmas to me! :3

  • used to shit myself at the ghost of christmas future and the ghosts in chains :s

  • As a child I did not understand this, as an atheist I did not appreciate this, but when I found God, I welled up with tears and got goosebumps because I understood the message all too well.

  • dont think badly of me, but this song taught me the true meaning of christmas. when i was 6 or so, i thought it was just about preseants. i knew that it was jesus's birthday (im not going to get into religion) but i didnt know what it was about. then i watched this movie, and i knew then. its about showing kindness and love to one another.

  • @TheChosenWielder That is a lovely thing to say .. and happy Christmas to you xx

  • @TheChosenWielder That's adorable :D

    I think it's very true though that this movie is great to show kids and teach about christmas :)

  • @TheChosenWielder : Indeed. Well said.

  • @TheChosenWielder Who would think badly of you for saying that? Except maybe the Scrooges in other tellings of this tale.

  • when i was just a lad i thought he said come in and oh meet the fatta man

  • II love this movie

  • They did a special pre-Christmas showing of this at the local movie theatre where I was studying abroad in Scotland and it was completely packed with probably at least 300 college students. Tickets sold out days in advance. And we all left the theatre singing this song! Such a classic :)

  • I was in middle school when I first saw A Muppets Christmas Carol. Every December, on the Friday before Christmas Vacation, in the dwindling hours of school, all the classes would get off more or less early and they would show a Christmas movie in each class and each class would get some ice cream with food coloring Santas or Christmas trees on them and cookies. No idea if they still do it, but they did when I was in 7th and 8th grade.

  • Everytime december rolls round I get this song stuck in my head. I love it!

  • @smiley118118 It doesnt need to be December for me to get this song stuck in my head :D

  • The ghost of Christmas Present bears a striking resemblance to Kenny Rogers post facelift.

  • KNOCK OUT!

  • "It's true wherever you find love it feels like Christmas." This made my day. In July haha

  • Love those horns...hear them in my head every holiday season....pumba bum bum bah buh...bum bump bupu pu punaaah!!!

  • best scene in the whole movie. and best addaptation of them all.

  • Oh, the voice of the ghost is totally different from the French version :O it's strange to hear him with his real voice ^^

  • I first saw this movie when I was around 7. 17 years later and this movie, this song, it all still holds a place in my heart. I can't help but smile during this song.

  • wonderful song this so truthful to life

  • I love the muppets, hugsz shari

  • Rizzo + Gonzo = perfect comic relief

  • @gegot1

    i agree! they're one of the best comic duos!

    they add humor, but it doesn't take away from the movie

  • 12 people wanted to be the butt of a lame comment joke.

  • "COME IN AND KNOW ME BETTER MAN!!! Do-ho-ho-hoohohoho" <3

  • it's Hagrid! lol

  • okeee, ik hou echt van dit filmpje, en van het liedje.

    ik vind het zo schattig allemaal en het blijft zo lekker hangen.

  • Puppet that falls on the right at 2:00 always cracks me up!!!

  • This song is the turning point for Scrooge... And why not? It's an awesomely epic song!

  • 12 people have no soul

  • 12 people don't want to go home and get warm by the fire

  • @MrVlogWatcher 12 people are gays

  • I love this song :)

  • What I'd do for an instrumental version of this song.

  • Sir Michael Caine, such a great actor!

  • Scrooge is so spurred on by the Spirit's happiness that he does a god-damn dance in time with him! And you know you love that shit

  • 3:30 scrooge is thinking..."WOW, just look at em all dance! hmmm, maybe there IS something to all this christmas stuff after all...lookit em go!"

  • I absolutely love this character in this movie. :)

  • I totally never noticed this before, but at 1:59, that muppet gets punched in the face!

    owned!!

  • already getting ready for christmas 2011

  • The Ghost of Christmas Present and Santa have to be realted in some way :)

    He never ceases to make me laugh and smile, whatever the season <3

  • Note: the choir boy getting smoked at 1:59. The first time I noticed that I was crying of laughter. The Muppets are the best at adding these subtle funny parts!
