Andrea Bocelli is the voice behind the John Lewis advert this year that broke tradition and went for an upbeat show of kindness towards a very cool plant.
Global (17 November 2023) – This year’s upbeat John Lewis Christmas advert broke from tradition and instead of being a tear-jerker, had us all smiling and secretly wishing for a carnivorous Christmas tree too. Andrea Bocelli was the voice behind the upbeat music in the background. He has released the song, following on from the advert last week.
If you were expecting a heart-pulling, tear-jerking advert from John Lewis this year, it’s not happening. They have broken from tradition and shared a light-hearted advert this year. Snapper as it is called, is about a young boy who grows a giant Venus fly trap to be the family Christmas tree.
The Venus fly trap and the young boy form a bond and before long, play along with each other, much to Mom’s dismay. When the Venus fly trap starts causing trouble, the family exiles it to the outdoors.
Andrea Bocelli is one of our favourite musical artists to feature on Good Things Guy and what is better than a brand new Christmas song to add to the playlist?
The song is a fun mix of Bocelli’s classical voice and 80s keyboard pop. Love it!!! And if that isn’t enough, the Bocelli family have been releasing all their favourite songs for the festive season so there are many more to enjoy this year.
You can watch his recording process for the song below:
