The ad shows the band and the models enjoying the build-up to Christmas with hot mince pies, traditional board games, a snowball fight and even a kiss beneath the mistletoe before trading gifts on Christmas Day.

Gary Barlow (Take That) said: "We were really excited to take part in the ad. It's the most anticipated thing M&S do all year and absolutely everyone looks forward to seeing it."

The soundtrack for the ad is Winter Wonderland sung by Macy Gray.

replies have been much appreciated but I know all this except whether it really is macy and HOW DO YOU KNOW?

[A.Guest]

Lily - one can either believe or disbelieve what is written. It clearly says in the link I just gave you that 'The soundtrack for the ad is Winter Wonderland sung by Macy Gray'.

So your guess is as good as anyone's.

Another link

The adverts see Take That chasing the girls around Twiggy's house and having a snowball fight to a background of Macy Gray singing 'Winter Wonderland'.

And another

The ad is shot in a traditional home-movie style and the soundtrack is the Christmas classic Winter Wonderland, sung by Macy Gray.

I have found that this track is on the CD Ally McBeal : A Very Ally Christmas. I doubt that it is exactly the same mix as the CD as they tend to get a remix of the original track so that it fits in with the advert.
You can hear a clip of the track here.

Thank you to u all but i hear that it sounds like macy and i read that it is macy but i am really sorry, HOW DO YOU KNOW? Could it be rosemary clooney or someone else old?

Believe it or not . . . .

It's not just ANY old song - it's the M&S song

[fredpuli47]

If that's Twiggy's house, as one link above says, where's all the snow come from? Snow machines? Or were the exteriors shot on location somewhere where there is proper snow ?
