John Legend Drops Two New Christmas Songs
It may only be October, but John Legend is getting in the Christmas spirit.
The EGOT winner has released the first two songs from his upcoming holiday album, A Legendary Christmas, including the original song “Bring Me Love” and a cover of the yuletide classic “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.” He duets with jazz singer Esperanza Spalding on the latter, which will make you wish it was December.
Executive produced by Raphael Saadiq, A Legendary Christmas will be released on Oct. 26. To accompany the album, Legend will embark on his “Legendary Christmas Tour.” The 25-date trek kicks off Nov. 15 in Clearwater, Fla. and wraps Dec. 30 in San Diego.
