00:00Oh, I'm going to be celebrating big time. Mary Poppins, because she'd look after you
00:03after a big night out. Might become the new Bublé, who knows?
00:07How about Robert Downey Jr vibes with these glasses?
00:09Yeah, I'll take that. I'll take it.
00:10So, you're taking on Mimi. You're taking on Mariah Carey.
00:13Yeah, I'm trying to, yeah. No, do you know what? It's been amazing to put out a Christmas
00:19song, finally. I always got told that Christmas songs are the hardest songs to write, but
00:24honestly, I had the best time writing them. We wrote five in total, and we had to pick
00:32which was the right one to go with. I really felt like the Motown, 60s vibe with a little
00:39bit of a modern twist was where I wanted to go, and that's what we've done. It was amazing
00:46to get in the Christmas spirit early, and I'm just so happy it's out. Obviously, it's
00:51exclusively with Amazon, so if people want to listen to it, then go download Amazon.
00:57It's not on any other platform apart from Amazon. So, yeah, it's great to be asked to
01:01do the campaign, and you know, like Sam Maida did it last year. Got a number two, and what
01:07an achievement, and I just hope we can do something like that, so we'll see.
01:10Another way that when you do get to number one, you're going to celebrate for, what is
01:13it, two weeks on the trot you're going to celebrate?
01:15Oh, I'm going to be celebrating big time, yeah. I'm going to be shutting the doors,
01:19all my family together, and just playing It Can't Be Christmas.
01:24So, is next year the year we get the whole album then, the Christmas album?
01:27Yeah, do you know what? There is a Christmas album there, so maybe it might become the
01:30new Bublé. Who knows?
01:32Oh, yeah. We need our own Bubbles over here, don't we?
01:34I know.
01:34Love it. I've got some Christmas questions for you.
01:36I love that.
01:37In my cheeky little stocking.
01:38Okay, cool.
01:38If you can pull them out.
01:39Yes.
01:40Get one, and tell us the answer, and if you want to, you can keep it.
01:46Oh.
01:50If you could host a Christmas dinner with any three fictional characters, who would
01:55it be?
01:59Dumbledore, because I think he'd give you so much wisdom, and so much lessons in life.
02:08Horrid Henry, because I think it would be a little bit chaotic and very fun, and I would
02:17have Mary Poppins, because she'd look after you after a big night out and make sure everything's
02:23alright.
02:24Can I come to that Christmas meal?
02:25It'd be great, wouldn't it?
02:28And you've had an incredible year, mister. The Iron Man, you've got so much stuff.
02:32Yeah.
02:32Have you stuck to your New Year's resolutions, though? That's the question.
02:35I think my New Year's resolution last year was just to keep doing what I'm doing, and
02:41keeping my head screwed on, and keeping my disciplines, and I think I've definitely done
02:48that.
02:48I feel like December, though, is hard for them disciplines to stay, but listen, we all
02:54have to have a little bit of a break, and 2025 will be me backing, head down, and going
03:02for glory.
03:03Yes, love it.
03:04Thank you very much.
03:05Lovely to see you, as always.
03:06You too. Take care, yeah.
03:07Have a good last night. Cheers.
03:07Thank you very much.
