ENHYPEN covers Justin Bieber's Christmas song. The newly recorded song, selected by Apple Music's editors, will be provided to listeners worldwide in immersive spatial audio. This year's limited songs, which color the season, feature many artists including ENHYPEN, Ai Tominaka, Khalid, Olly Murs, Parker McCollum, and UMI. In the 'Classic Christmas Carol Cover Songs', artists add new modern interpretations to existing carols and songs. The covers included in this playlist offer an opportunity to enjoy classic songs in interesting new ways. This year, new arrangements by Anna Lapwood and Francesco Tristano have also been added, creating a powerful playlist of innovative and beautiful music production. The 'Christmas Carol Cover Songs' and 'Classic Christmas Carol Cover Songs' are exclusively available on Apple Music in immersive spatial audio, and 'Apple Music Hits' is currently airing as the holiday season limited program 'Holiday Hits'. ENHYPEN reinterprets Justin Bieber's cheerful and festive song 'Mistletoe', released in 2011. Jake revealed, 'This song reminds me of my childhood and always makes me smile.' Khalid covers Wham!'s 'Last Christmas', stating, 'First of all, I am a huge fan of George Michael,' and adds, 'Even during the holiday season, the theme of writing and producing an anthem about making better choices this Christmas than last year resonates with me. The melody of the chorus is very catchy and sticks in your head.' Parker McCollum, who covers 'Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town', shared, 'I covered the Bruce Springsteen version of this song on Fox News in Austin, Texas, at 5:30 in the morning, and it was almost my first time performing with a full band. I borrowed Brandon Rhyder's band to perform 'Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town'. It was also my first time appearing on live television.' UMI, who chose 'This Christmas', said, 'Every Christmas, my sister and I cover a lot of holiday songs. We record them and give them as gifts to our family.' She added, 'This Christmas is so much fun to sing anytime. I love belting it out soulfully. I incorporated those memories into this cover. This song takes me back to my heart.' Singer-songwriter Olly Murs explained his choice of 'Merry Christmas Everyone', saying, 'I decided to cover this song because it’s an upbeat Christmas classic that always lifts my spirits.' He added, 'I love creating feel-good happy music, and the original version definitely resonated with me.' Anna Lapwood, the Cambridge Pembroke College Chapel Choir, and Sebastian Blount, who covered 'Silent Night', stated, 'The arrangement of Franz Xaver Gruber's 'Silent Night', incorporating jazz elements by Jonathan Rathbone, has become a staple of our Christmas carol service in recent years.' They continued, 'After the first verse sung by several upper voices, the second verse sung by tenor Sebastian Blount features a surprising modulation from A-flat major to E major. The final verse settles in D-flat major, which is our favorite key.' Francesco Tristano explained his choice of 'The Friendly Beasts', saying, 'When I wanted to return to the origins of the carol, a song from 13th century France caught my attention.' He added, 'That song became known as 'The Friendly Beasts' in the 19th century and has been covered by many artists including Harry Belafonte, Johnny Cash, and Sufjan Stevens since the 20th century. In my version, I incorporated the atmosphere of medieval church modes while adding solemn harmonies typical of Christmas carols.'
