Brian Wilson

And someone special has written it

Brian Wilson is to release his first solo Christmas single next month.

The Beach Boys legend issues ‘What I Really Want For Christmas’ on December 5. It’s co-written by Elton John’s lyricist Bernie Taupin.

The package also features Wilson singing ‘We Wish You A Merry Christmas’ as well as delivering an exclusive Christmas message.

The new single is taken from Brian’s upcoming 15-track solo CD 'What I Really Want For Christmas'. Accompanying Wilson on LP is the same ten-piece band he assembled for last year’s ‘Smile’ .
