NCT Dream released “Joy” on Friday (Dec. 15), the group’s first Christmas song.
The sprightly carol incorporates “Joy to the World,” “Jingle Bells” and “Roses Are Red” into its groovy melody. Twinkling bells, rhythmic guitar riffs, brassy horns and upbeat raps help build “Joy” into a revelatory holiday song, before ending on a high note with the band members harmonizing their way out of the tune.
The song is the latest music produced out of SM Entertainment's weekly release project SM Station.
