"(Everybody's Waitin' for) The Man with the Bag" is a Christmas song written in 1950 by Irving Taylor, Dudley Brooks, and Hal Stanley.
[1] The "man with the bag" is a reference to Santa Claus, who drops off presents from his sleigh to people who have been "extra special good".
He had an interest in a club in South-Central Los Angeles where Dudley Brooks often performed, and had collaborated with Irving Taylor on several television projects.
[5] Jessie J first recorded a cover of "(Everybody's Waitin' for) The Man with the Bag" for an advert for Boots during Christmas 2015.
[6][7][8] The version was later included on the singer's fifth studio album This Christmas Day and published as the lead single in October 2018.
