Who Is the Singer on the John Lewis Christmas Advert as Viewers Brought to Tears

The advert highlights a father-son bond through music, featuring a Labrinth remix of Alison Limerick's 1990s song and supporting John Lewis Partnership's charity program.

  • After a weekend teaser on November 2, John Lewis surprised viewers by releasing its 2025 Christmas advert early on November 4 across social media and TV platforms.
  • The early launch aims to mark the start of Christmas for many people, with fans not having to wait long as the festive institution arrives earlier than usual.
  • In the advert, a dad opens a gift from his teenage son that is one of his favourite 1990s songs, and the advert's narrative arc ends with them hugging and laughing.
  • Merchandise tied to the campaign includes a vinyl and record player as a nostalgic prop, with profits from a vinyl release featuring Labrinthโ€™s refreshed track donated to the John Lewis Partnership's Building Happier Futures programme.
  • Given John Lewis's history, fans and social-media audience correctly guessed the advert's signature track as Alison Limerick's 1990s club hit, highlighting music's central role.
