Watch Lizzo Cover Stevie Wonder’s ‘Someday at Christmas’
Lizzo was the musical guest for Saturday Night Live‘s final episode of 2022. The chart-topping artist performed a cover of Stevie Wonder‘s 1966 holiday song ‘Someday at Christmas’. Lizzo recently released a studio version of the song for Amazon, but she upped the festive vibes for the SNL performance, surrounding herself with lit-up Christmas trees.
In addition to ‘Someday at Christmas’, Lizzo performed ‘Break Up Twice’ from her 2022 album Special. This time, the stage set and costumes referenced Annie Lee’s painting Blue Monday. The multi-platinum singer began the performance sitting on a white bed against a blue backdrop. Watch both performances below.
Lizzo Performs ‘Someday at Christmas’ and ‘Break Up Twice’ on SNL
Lizzo appeared on SNL as a stand in for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, who were forced to pull out of their scheduled appearance as guitarist Nick Zinner continues to recover from an ongoing bout of pneumonia.
The Austin Butler-hosted episode marked Lizzo’s third appearance on Saturday Night Live. She performed ‘Truth Hurts’ and ‘Good as Hell’ on the show back in 2019, and returned earlier this year to debut the title track from Special.
Special, Lizzo’s fourth studio album, arrived in July. The follow-up to 2019 breakout Cuz I Love You included the single ‘About Damn Time’, which reached number one in the USA and number three in Australia. Last year, Lizzo teamed up with Cardi B for the collaborative standalone single ‘Rumors’.
