In complete seriousness, I've watched this video no fewer than a dozen times, because it is that terrific. The video alternates between high quality special effects and crappy home movies; Heidi literally glitters, whereas "Santa Claus" is clearly some drunk guy in a backyard. Also they seem to run out of footage during the last minute and loop the video. 'tever.
Why does Heidi Klum have to read such a simple song's sheet music. Are we to believe she reads music? Or anything, for that matter? She sure is pretty, though.
I took the time to transcribe the lyrics:
Everybody's cheering up tonight
Whoa ohhh oh yeah
Childrens' eyes reflecting candlelight
Whoa oh oh
Sleigh bells ding every street
The world is waiting for Santa Claus to come
People feel that their hearts can beat as one
As one. Enjoy the...
Wonderland, wonderland, shining stars, jingle bells
This time is filled with magic
Wonderland, wonderland, shining stars, jingle bells
The holy night is coming
Everyone who's lonely in this life
Step onto the street, no don't think twice
Leave your heartache behind, light up the candle
The magic's inside of you
Let the strangers around you feel it too
Feel it too
Wonderland, wonderland, shining stars, jingle bells
This time is filled with magic
Wonderland, wonderland, shining stars, jingle bells
The holy night is coming
That chorus is the most catchy cliched Christmas crap you'll ever hear. Just wait until you find yourself tapping your feet and muttering "wonderland, wonderland, shining stars, jingle bells" under your breath during a faculty meeting.
The second verse has me a bit concerned, as the line about lonely people stepping into the street without a second thought seems kind of suicidal, but why would anyone do such a drastic thing when there are strangers to share magic with?
