06: Mele Kalikimaka - Jimmy Buffett Info

Notices

Christmas Island is Jimmy Buffett's 1996 collection of Christmas-themed music and is his 22nd studio album. It features covers of popular Christmas songs in Buffett's musical stylings as well as two tracks which Buffett wrote for the album. "Twas the Night Before Christmas" is a hidden track.

Although Christmas Island only received lukewarm reviews and is somewhat unpopular among parrotheads (not me!), several tracks remain very popular around the Christmas season. "Ho Ho Ho & A Bottle Of Rum" was the track chosen to be played live for promoting the album when first released, and seems to remain the most popular off the album.

Although no singles were released, "Jingle Bells", "Mele Kalikimaka", "Ho Ho Ho & A Bottle Of Rum" and "Merry Christmas, Alabama (Never Far From Home)" get considerable amount of radio airplay during the season.

Another Buffett song, "Christmas In The Caribbean" (released as a single in 1985 and later on Boats, Beaches, Bars & Ballads) is also known to be a favorite on radio stations.

Mele Kalikimaka
Alex Anderson
From the Album Christmas Island

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That’s the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway

Here we know that Xmas will be green and bright
Sun will shine by day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii’s way
To say Merry Christmas to you

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day
That’s the island greeting that we send to you
From the land where palm trees sway

Here we know that Xmas will be green and bright
Sun will shine by day and all the stars at night
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii’s way
To say Merry Christmas to you
