November 27th 2023

Single Release

Limahl is back with another great Christmas song!!!

As the holiday season begins to gear up, UK music icon Limahl has unpacked his Christmas song ‘London for Christmas’ that he released a few years ago and decided it was due for an update. Now titled ‘One wish for Christmas’, the single is a timeless Christmas classic that hasn’t been worn out by decades of repetition. The original version of the song ‘London for Christmas’ was released in 2012 and re-released 2021. Originally set in London and namechecking many of the city’s memorable landmarks such as Trafalgar Square, Mayfair, the Thames River, West End, The London Eye and Big Ben as the backdrop for the romantic track, the new version keeps the setting intact but adds a bit of yearning for Christmases past. Adding lush strings, orchestral arrangements, and new vocals and a tweak to the lyrics, ‘One wish for Christmas’ takes on a whole new life this holiday season.

Featured in three popular US TV shows recently, Limahl re-entered Pop culture when Spotify monthly streams jumped from three hundred thousand to one and a half million. In reality, Limahl never really left Pop culture prominence, and has been performing on the stage and screen for years. His Worldwide smashes 'Neverending Story' and 'Too Shy' (KajaGooGoo) were featured on hit television series 'Black Mirror' (Episode: 'Bandersnatch'), American Horror Story (Season Nine: '1984') and 'Stranger Things' (Season Three).

Winning the hearts of millions of fans in the 80's as the lead singer of British band KajaGooGoo, Limahl enjoyed the instant celebrity of hitting the top of the charts with their debut single 'Too Shy' which was followed by two more top twenty hits 'Ooh to be Ah' and 'Hang on Now' (all of which he co-wrote). Limahl struck out on his own and soon re-emerged in the charts again with his first solo single 'Only for Love'. That was quickly followed with the Giorgio Moroder produced Worldwide smash 'Neverending Story', the theme song from the hit film of the same name.
