It was written by Philip Raxster, produced by Paul Shaw and David Rogers, and was released on 22 November 1993.

[4][5] Rupert Hawksley of The Telegraph ranked it as the worst Christmas number one in history, arguing that Blobby "set the bar so low with this bizarre single, it's hard to imagine that it could ever be usurped".

[7] It placed first in an HMV public poll of the worst-ever festive songs,[8] and second in a VH1 viewer survey of the worst number one singles of all time.

It spoofed several music videos such as "Addicted to Love" by Robert Palmer, "Stay" by Shakespears Sister, Snap!

[11] The video featured Noel Edmonds, Carol Vorderman, Wayne Sleep, Garth Crooks and The Grand Tour (2016-2024) presenter Jeremy Clarkson as Mr Blobby's limo driver.
