Background [edit]
The Backstreet Boys had been working on their eighth studio album since mid-2012 and they originally aimed to have something out earlier the terminate of the twelvemonth,[8] just after pushed back the release date for the single to early 2013.[9] When they got the opportunity to perform at Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade, Disney gave them the option to sing their previous original Christmas song "Christmas Time" or a classic,[10] merely they figured they would write a new Christmas song instead which would also serve as a gift to their fans while they're waiting for the new album.[11] Dorough and Carter wrote the vocal in early October 2012 with Morgan Taylor Reid and Mika Guillory in about two hours. Inside a week they had the song not only demoed and written, simply also recorded by the rest of the Backstreet Boys members. They and then presented it to Disney, who quickly approved it.[x]
