Perry's legendary voice is well suited for the song, which he jazzes up with a smooth and upbeat arrangement. Perry loosens up towards the end of the track, which shifts into a Motown-styled groove. Listen to it below.

The song was released in various formats, including special hand-singed seven-inch vinyl packages with his take on "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" on the B-side via Perry's website.
