Elbow’s Golden Slumbers

Elbow have covered The Beatles’ ‘Golden Slumbers’ for the 2017 John Lewis Christmas advert.
The ‘One Day Like This’ group’s frontman Guy Garvey provided the vocals on the track, which was originally penned by Sir Paul McCartney after he came across the score for the soothing 17th century children’s song ‘Cradle Song’ at his father’s house in Liverpool, for the high street store’s annual campaign.
Guy’s dulcet tones can be heard over a farting and snoring monster as the tale of seven-year-old Joe, who strikes up an unlikely friendship with the seven-foot beast called Moz, who keeps him up all night snoring, unfolds.
