Oh, had totally missed that. Yeah, this is the original version of the song...much prefer the Lily Allen one. Probably where they got the idea for the ad, from this trailer.

Disney Christmas advert from the UK:



Very heartwarming. Lots of beautiful details. They're actually selling the plushie to benefit the foundation. It's pretty cute, however not really accurate in size. Look how big it looks with the kid holding it! Kind of false advertisement. My name is on the sample embroidery! ;)
It's really weird that our local official Disney Facebook page played a trailer to this advertisement (why does it need a trailer?!) and that we don't even celebrate Christmas and we don't even have Disney stores...what is the point?

That is odd, Fareb! This is written with the trailer:

"Something special is on the way ... Sunday November 15th ✨ # from your family to your family"

I'm thinking just the advert. Maybe an opportunity to buy the Mickey plushie. Otherwise, yes, what is the point..?

Yeah weird, why would anyone be excited for this? Unless we're missing something.

Looks like it is just the advert with the song dubbed over:



Same meh song, but I like this more. Sounds less autotuned.

Yes, the singer is Keren Peles, she's very good. I also like this version better than the original, that doesn't happen a lot. I also noticed that they didn't mention Disney stores...

Interesting. I really like her voice.

And yeah, all it says in the end is: “From our family to your family” like in the UK version.

Not trying to bring politics in here, just thought this was SO funny (hope it’s OK).

EDIT: I really just posted it for its clever “lyrics” juxtaposed with its source material. No other intentions.
