Behind The Christmas Hits with Drew Savage

Things you didn't know about Barenaked Ladies' GREEN CHRISTMAS From How The Grinch Stole Christmas! Behind the Christmas Hits

11 min • 11 december 2020

Today, a Christmas hit written by a Canadian band for a big budget Christmas movie starring a Canadian actor! Today, it’s the story of Green Christmas by the Barenaked Ladies for the movie How The Grinch Stole Christmas! 

For this story, we hook up with the guitarist, lead singer and songwriter for Barenaked Ladies, Ed Robertson.

Ed Robertson tells us about how the song came to be, being a big fan of Ron Howard, and tells us all about his memories of writing the song.

Ed and Drew talk about their love of the Grinch Movies, and how they had to cut a special deal to even get the song recorded!

The guys talk about the rerecord for 'Barenaked for the Holidays' and get in to a little bit of banter around the band's cover of the iconic 'Do They Know Its Christmas?'!

Thanks for joining us, we'll have more stories Behind The Christmas Hits next week!
