Lee Hi becomes the only Korean singer to be featured in Spotify’s holiday playlist Spotify Singles: Holiday Collection this year. Along with other artists like Demi Lovato, John Legend, Miley Cyrus, Lova, Ashniko, Surfaces, Sasha Alex Sloan and many more, the list has broad variety of tracks. The playlist would contain the holiday versions of original songs which are remixed specially for this Holiday playlist.
This is first time Spotify is expanding outside US for featuring artists from across the borders in it’s holiday playlist. Considering the increasing popularity of non-US artists globally, this is not surprising.
Lee Hi recorded the holiday remix version of one of her 2020 tracks “For You” for the playlist. The original track also features Korean artist Crush. She stated,
“Thanks to Spotify, I was able to reinterpret ‘For You’ into a new romantic holiday song perfect for this year-end season. It was fun to recreate a much loved track to a holiday version just for Spotify’s Holiday Singles for broader international music fans. I hope the reimagined ‘For You’ and other songs in the collection can comfort listeners so they can have a happy holiday in a time where cheer is certainly needed”
The playlist has total of 71 tracks from various artists. Some of my other personal likes apart from ‘For You’ are O Holy Night by Ruston Kelly, Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) by The Lumineers, Last Christmas by Yoke Lore, Angels We have heard on High by Toru Kelly and more.
