The song has been performed on various television series,such as Jimmy Kimmel Live!,The Late Late Show with James Corden and The Voice,as well as on the 2017 American holiday special Gwen Stefani's You Make It Feel Like Christmas.
After the release of Stefani's third solo album,This Is What the Truth Feels Like (2016),she announced her plans to release new music by the end of 2017 in July of that year.[1][2] Besides the announcement,she had no further details. Following a nature walk that occurred at Shelton's residential estate in Oklahoma,Stefani felt inspired to write Christmas music and began work on a track that later became "Christmas Eve". The material created for You Make It Feel Like Christmas was recorded during the summer months of 2017,after Stefani scheduled joint studio and songwriting sessions with Justin Tranter and busbee. The latter of the three collaborated with Stefani following a suggestion from Shelton that she would work well with him. Stefani was pressured to create a holiday album by busbee that was "raw and punk and sort of classical at the same time";accordingly,Stefani listened to the favorite holiday albums of her childhood,such as Vince Guaraldi's A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965) and Emmylou Harris's Light of the Stable (1979),for inspiration.[3][4]
On August 2,2017,the titles of several unreleased tracks from Stefani,including "Christmas Eve","My Gift Is You","Under the Christmas Lights" and "You Make It Feel Like Christmas",first leaked onto the internet when they appeared as published works on BMI and GEMA,American and German music databases,respectively.[5] Because of the titles,music critics suggested that Stefani may have been recording a holiday album,due for release in 2017.[6] On September 18 that year,the singer took to her social media accounts and claimed that she "had something big planned for the holidays",and would release more information in the near future. The next day,Stefani revealed that she had recorded a Christmas album,confirming its title as You Make It Feel Like Christmas,and stating that the title track would be released as the lead single.[7] It was written by Stefani,Justin Tranter,Shelton and busbee,while production was handled by busbee and Eric Valentine.[8]
"You Make It Feel Like Christmas" was sent to music distributors such as Amazon Music for digital download and streaming on September 22,2017,through Interscope Records.[9] It was ultimately serviced to adult contemporary radio stations by Interscope in several countries including the United States,except in Italy where the Universal Music Group released Stefani's cover of "Santa Baby" as the lead single instead.[10][11] Alongside the release included two unique promotionalCD singles;one was distributed to United Kingdom radio stations by Interscope Records while another,serviced through Polydor Records and Universal Music Group,was sent out for French airplay rotation.[12][13] In Russia,the song was released to contemporary hit radio stations on September 25,2017.[14]
Composition and lyrics
"You Make It Feel Like Christmas" is Stefani and Shelton's second duet,following "Go Ahead and Break My Heart" in 2016.
Musically,"You Make It Feel Like Christmas" is an infectious and upbeatcountry pop Christmas song with romantic lyrics.[16][17][18] Megan Armstrong from Billboard described the song as a blend of both Stefani and Shelton's signature styles,incorporating elements from both the pop and country genres,although she felt it emphasized the former more than the latter.[19] Labelling it a "bouncy duet",AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine noted that the song contains a "Motown beat" and pays homage to the past.[20] Echoing the view that the song has an older vibe,Noisey's Alex Robert Ross called the duet "an upbeat,old-timey,country-esque Yuletide song".[21] Furthermore,Michael Bialas from The Huffington Post used "You Make It Feel Like Christmas" to characterize Stefani's career as heading into a country music direction.[22]
According to Musicnotes.com,"You Make It Feel Like Christmas" is set in common time and has a moderate "bright swing" tempo of 93 beats per minute.[23] The key of the song is in C major,with Stefani's vocal range spanning nearly an entire octave,from C3 to E5 in scientific pitch notation.[23] Throughout the song's three verses,the vocal range advances in the chord progressions of C–G–B–Am.[23] The song was engineered by Valentine and mixed by Dave Clauss. Jonathan Sterling served as assistant engineer whereas busbee and Dave Way were lead vocals engineers,with assistance from Peter Chun. Erica Canales,Laura Mace,Monet Owens,and Dolly Sparks provided background vocals for the track,with arrangements from Grace Potter.[8]
The first verse is performed by Shelton,who sings,"I wanna thank the storm that brought the snow / Thanks to the string of lights that make it glow".[23] According to E! News's Cydney Contreras,Stefani "joyously sings about how she thought she 'was done for [and] thought that love had died'";however,she disregards her assumptions after being romantically involved with Shelton,who helps make it "feel like Christmas".[24] The couple discuss love and name-drop holiday-themed items,such as snow and "sweet gingerbread made with molasses",within the lyrics.[25]
Critical reception
Allan Raible from ABC News admired the song's retro charm,calling it an asset. Regarding Shelton's feature,he wrote:"This is Shelton being welcomed into Stefani’s world and not sounding out of place."[16] Randy Lewis of the Los Angeles Times enjoyed the collaboration,writing that it is "sweetly romantic" and an obvious inclusion on You Make It Feel Like Christmas due to the highly publicized relationship.[26] Rob Copsey,an editor for the Official Charts Company,appreciated Stefani's decision to emphasize the importance of family in the song. He described the song as a modern classic and said:"There's just the right amount of schmaltz and country-pop festive cheer,so expect to see this reappear in the coming years."[18] Mike Nied from Idolator was similarly positive,suggesting that it "may have something that will live up to Mariah Carey’s defining classic 'All I Want For Christmas Is You'" from 1994.[27]
Ross was critical of the single's release date in September,several months before Christmas Day. As one of the subjects for his 2017 article titled "Christmas Songs? In September? Really?",the song was described as "almost quite fun if you live somewhere unnaturally cold during the fall".[21]Variety's Chris Willman considered the original songs on You Make It Feel Like Christmas to be superior to her covers;however,he used "You Make It Feel Like Christmas" as evidence that Shelton and Stefani should keep "their careers separate".[28] Quite oppositely,while David Smyth from Evening Standard was positive about the album in general,he considered the song to be less memorable than Stefani's covers of Christmas standards.[29]
In the US,"You Make It Feel Like Christmas" narrowly missed entering the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Instead,it reached the US Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart,which serves as an extension to the Hot 100,cataloging the songs that have not yet charted on the main ranking.

In particular,one of the photos depicted Stefani preparing a holiday feast alongside Shelton and included the song's lyric "We're gonna be a classic for all time..." as the caption.[65] She later confirmed that the music video would be released on November 22,2018,and was directed by Muller.[66] On the scheduled date,it was uploaded to her official Vevo account on YouTube.[67]
Stefani flirting with Shelton in the "You Make It Feel Like Christmas" video;several music critics noted that her appearance in the video was reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe.
The video opens with Stefani and Shelton driving in a retro convertible as snow falls. While transporting a Christmas tree in the car,Shelton becomes disrupted by a swarm of bees that Stefani attempts to shoo away.[68] Another scene depicts the couple in an orchestral hall setting,with a big backing band and a group of children dancers dressed as Santa Claus,and the people cause Shelton to become surprised. He wears a tuxedo and Stefani sports a silver flashy and "ritzy" dress,with her look in the segment being compared to American actress Marilyn Monroe.[69][70] The succeeding scene shows the couple building snowmen in a forest,with Shelton's resembling the traditional variety and Stefani's replicating the appearance of Michelangelo's David.[71]
They are again joined by the backing band and dancing children,who perform their choreography and circle Stefani and Shelton as the couple sing. A living room setting features Stefani magically decorating the interior and entrapping Shelton with a string of Christmas lights. As Stefani cuddles with and embraces Shelton,he uses a handheld nutcracker to open a shelled chestnut without luck.

Wass wrote:"This nostalgic clip throws it back to the 1950s with [Stefani] serving full Marilyn Monroe glamour" while UPI's Annie Martin claimed that in the big band scene,Stefani wears a "retro-inspired look [...] reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe".[75]
