The Story Behind Jingle Jangle: 

A Note from Rehya Stevens 

I wanted to write a Christmas song that made me feel giddy. Giddy in the same way I felt when I first heard classics like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Sleigh Ride.

One evening, while puttering around the house with a glass of wine in hand, the verses seemed to write themselves. Later, my longtime collaborator Jon Kubis and I wrote the bridges in a small studio we rented in Boyle Heights. The song came together organically, without a grand plan or formula. Its success has followed a similar path.

Released in 2018, Jingle Jangle gradually found its audience one listener, one placement, and one holiday season at a time. Without a major label, significant promotion, or industry machine behind it, the song grew into what I like to call "the independent Christmas song that could."

Today, Jingle Jangle has earned more than 5 million streams, won a Hollywood Music in Media Award for Best Holiday Song, and continues to be licensed worldwide.

Thank you to everyone who has pitched, licensed, streamed, saved, shared, and added Jingle Jangle to your holiday playlists over the years. Your support has helped this little independent Christmas song find its way into homes, films, television shows, and holiday traditions around the world. What a thrill to be part of your holiday celebrations year after year!

With love and gratitude,

Rehya 

Jingle Jangle (Lyrics)

Written by: Rehya Stevens & Jon Kubis

It's the most wonderful time of year

Cocoa on kettles, laughter & cheer

Jingle Jangle it's Christmas time again

Play some carols, we'll light up the tree

And pop some corn to put on a string

To the jingle jangle of Christmas chimes again

Bridge:

Giddy up, giddy up - off we go

To the Jolly Town Parade

Giddy up, giddy up in the snow

To the jingle jangle on an open sleigh, oh

It's my favorite time of year

On a sleigh ride together in the frosty air

Jingle jangle it's Christmas time again

Bridge:

Giddy up, giddy up off we go

Down to Peppermint Town Lane

Giddy up, giddy off to bed we go

While Santa does the jingle jangle all the way, oh

It's the most magical time of year

We'll be reminiscing when the spring is here

Until jingle jangle it's Christmas time again

'Til jingle jangle it's Christmas time again

Jingle jangle it's Christmas time again
