Last Christmas was originally released by Wham! in 1984, written by George Michael, and has become one of the most covered holiday songs in pop music. Omar Kamal, a Palestinian singer known for his Sinatra-influenced style and multilingual covers, brings a classic crooner approach to this version. Clips of his performance circulate each December on social media, where listeners seek out softer, more traditional interpretations alongside the original synth-pop recording, helping this cover resurface annually as part of seasonal sharing and playlist culture online.
About this sound
Omar Kamal singing Last Christmas in a smooth, heartfelt cover clip that people share for festive posts, holiday edits and seasonal greetings.
This clip features Omar Kamal performing Last Christmas with a warm, crooning vocal style over a gentle festive arrangement. His smooth delivery gives the familiar holiday melody a romantic, slightly melancholic feel, lingering on the emotional chorus rather than rushing it. The short excerpt captures the instantly recognisable hook and the soft, intimate tone of his interpretation. It works as a seasonal mood setter, adding nostalgia and sincerity to a video without needing the full song, and it stands out from upbeat pop versions because of its slower, more heartfelt phrasing and elegant presentation.
