Happy Christmas to all our That Grape Juice readers. We hope the holidays are treating you oh so well.
In embracing the the festive spirit, our From The Vault pick this week is Destiny’s Child‘s ‘8 Days Of Christmas’.
Released as the first single of their holiday album of the same name, the cut – which was released in Winter 2001) is a fan favourite and a R&B classic.
The track amazingly blends traditional hooks (the core of the song is an interpolation of the carol ‘Twelve Days Of Christmas’) and modern Urban beats. It also doesn’t hurt that their world-renown 3-part harmonies are on full display – showcased at its most stellar with the choir-like breakdown.
The accompanying video sees the three diva’s dressed in sexy Santa outfits, parading around a Christmas-themed toy store, complete with a carousel and all. All very standard-festive-fare. Yet, we love it all the same.
So, as you stuff your belly with all that fierce food, hit ‘PLAY’ and let DC3 take you back!
Merry Christmas!

yea i remember when this was released i was thinking they should have released a CD with just the standard christmas songs….it would be classic and still sell to this day…. when you speak of chloe shades and all that you just date the CD…..
i love that christmass song that was my favorite to this day god bless them
Christmas just doesnt feel like Christmas unless i hear this song!! *sigh* this takes me back to the pre-t*** years 🙂 LOVEDDDDDD DC!
Really no hating guys! I agree Beyonce is very talented and all that so don´t come for me please. But are you serious when saying this is great? It must be one of the worse original Xmas songs ever released. It´s almost awful. I also remember their Xmas album being a huge flop, and they were at the peak of their popularity as a group
Compared to any other big act Xmas album this is really bad, vocally and in all fronts
Merry Christmas Beyonce, Kelly @ Michelle… It’s Time To Unlock The Vault..lol
I just seen this video on MTV.Takes me back to third grade.
@ Bey’Knight
Now You Being A B Stan You Should Know That’s NOT A Lace Front…Lol….Those Are Micro Braids….B Didn’t Start Wearing Lace Fronts Till The Dangerously In Love Era….*And The Oprah Taping Where They Performed The Christmas Songs…..
SHITE group with SHITE music
@B
i stand corrected. Thanks but please dont refer to me as a stan. i hate that terminology and what it connotes. Beyonce’s my favourite artist, tis all 🙂
I am Beyonce obsessed but this is one of the most embarrassing songs of all time. Seriously, it is hilariously terrible.
Michelle looks absolutely flawless in this video
I always thought they should of released Spread A Little love on Christmas Day or Opera Of The Bells as the First Single off the Christmas album. Still love the cd though. It takes me back to when I was DC Obsessed ! lol Side Note : did anyone see Michelle tweet about playing this cd on Christmas ?
