Olivia Rodrigo's First Official Christmas Single

Just Jared calls "take me home (4 christmas)" her first-ever Christmas song. That makes it a new step for her, since she hasn't put out a holiday single before.

She has shown up on a Christmas cover. Jacob Collier posted an a cappella version of "I'll Be Home for Christmas" on Instagram in December that features her.

Nothing about the sound or the lyrics has been confirmed yet. We'll update this post once the song is out.

The Music Video Arrives at the Same Time

The video comes out the moment the song does. You won't have to wait a day to see it.

Just Jared's headline calls it star-studded and names Cynthia Nixon and Ben Marshall. We haven't seen details on their roles, so treat the cast as reported until the video is out.

Vinyl and Cassette Release Dates

The physical versions come a day later. Clash reports a 7-inch vinyl that reaches North American stores on Friday, November 6.

Bravado sells an exclusive red cassette of the single, with November 6 listed as the date.

A Target-exclusive vinyl reportedly has a bonus track called "Miss This Christmas". That comes from a fan-site post, so it's reported, not confirmed.

How This Differs From the Bels

You may have seen headlines about a Rodrigo Christmas song before. That was "the bels", a different song she wrote at age 5.

On Christmas Eve 2021, she posted a childhood photo and called it her "very first Christmas song," written by "5 year old me." In 2022, she shared it with fans through her newsletter and Discord.

It was never an official single. "take me home (4 christmas)" is the first one she's releasing for everyone.
