Hello Afritunes community. Merry Christmas to you all.
It's my first post here, and I'm glad to participate in the Afri-Christmas Volume 4 Contest.

I would have missed it, but here I am finally bringing you the cover of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town", which was inspired by my nephew (who is also my godson, 6 years old now).
My nephews and niece visited to spend a week before Christmas, and it was fun staying with them as they sang Christmas songs for me, especially my niece (4 years old), who is already interested in music. She loves to watch me sing and wants to be a singer. Haha.
I told her she can be whoever she wants to be, and as she grows in wisdom and strength, God will guide her path to fulfil her purpose of creation.
Moving on, they sang this song, and then I told them that I had a video to show them. So, it was a video of my godson singing "Santa Claus is coming to Town" when he was 2 years old. He was so cute. I love to video them in their cute moments whenever they visit. So, they all laughed as they watched the video of their brother singing.
"Santa Claus is Coming to Town" reveals what we have always believed about Santa Claus, knowing that he always comes with gifts to give to children during Christmas.

Children love gifts, and my nephews and niece said they have written their Christmas list, wishing for Santa Claus (their parents, haha) to gift them.
While singing this song, I altered a few of the lyrics, which are included in the video and will also be featured in the lyrics section.
I hope reading this blog and watching my cover brings you joy. Have an amazing Christmas celebration. 🎅🎁🦃
Thanks, @luchyl, for inviting me to participate and thanks to @ovey10 for this opportunity to join the Afri-Christmas contest with other musicians.
