Grazie a All I Want For Christmas Is You Mariah Carey è diventata la regina indiscussa del Natale, avendo regalato una colonna sonora intramontabile che, ormai da quasi 25 anni, puntualmente ricompare nelle classifiche a tema da novembre in poi. La canzone, ad oggi il singolo più venduto di Mariah a livello internazionale, è stata anche inserita da Billboard al primo posto della chart dedicata ai brani festivi più conosciuti della storia, giusto per comprenderne la popolarità.
Ora che il Natale si avvicina la Carey è pronta ad aggiungere nuovi classici alla sua già lunga lista. Il 17 novembre arriverà infatti il cartone animato All I Want For Christmas Is You, con protagonista una baby Mariah. Ad accompagnarlo una colonna sonora che comprende, tra le altre, la traccia ‘Lil Snowman, uptempo stile anni ’50 ben diversa dai classici brani natalizi.
Sound che non ci si aspetta dalla cantante, che sinceramente fatichiamo nel vederlo diventare una hit. Ma chissà, mai dire mai.

Testo
[Verse 1]
Oh, my little snowman
He’s the coolest guy in town
He’s jolly and he’s happy
Nothing’s gonna bring him down
All the people say that there ain’t no way
This Christmas he ain’t coming around
Oh, my little snowman
He’s the finest boy to me (ooh, ooh, ooh)
He’s got them pretty little eyes
And the biggest belly you’ve ever seen (ooh, ooh, ooh)
He’s got his hat to the back ‘cause he’s cool like that
And they don’t know how he makes me feel
[Chorus]
Oh, my little snowman
Does what no one else can
You can’t tell me he ain’t for real
Baby, baby, my baby (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Baby, baby, my baby (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh, my little snowman
Does what no one else can
You can’t tell me, he ain’t for real
[Post-Chorus]
