Mickey Mouse Is ‘Home Alone’ for the Holidays: Watch ‘Ho-Ho-Home for Christmas’ Music Video Premiere
Billboard ·
Mickey's Home Alone arrives Thanksgiving day (Nov. 26) on Disney Jr. and streams next day on Disney+.
Mickey Mouse is channeling his inner-Kevin McAllister this holiday season in the new Disney Christmas special Mickey’s Home Alone .
Below, Billboard Family is premiering the exclusive “Ho-Ho-Home for Christmas” music video from the special, which arrives Thanksgiving day (Nov. 26) on Disney Jr. and streams next day on Disney+. In the music video, Mickey can’t wait to celebrate Christmas with Minnie Mouse and the rest of the gang at their cozy home. Little does he know, Mickey is about to get exactly what he wants — but the rest of the crew won’t be there.
Watch the music video below:
“Ho-Ho-Home for Christmas” is one of two original songs in the new special from songwriter Keith Harrison Dworkin, also including “Favorite Christmas Feeling.” Mickey’s Home Alone also features a new arrangement of the Christmas classic “Jingle Bells.”
As the title suggests, the new special was inspired by the 1990 movie Home Alone , which stars Macauley Culkin as Kevin McAllister, an 8-year-old who wishes his family would disappear and then gets what he wants when he’s left behind as the rest of the fam heads on a European vacation over Christmas break.
In a trailer for Mickey’s Home Alone , we see that Mickey also has to fight off some bad guys on his solo mission, but this time, the dangerous duo is a raccoon and a weasel instead of “The Wet Bandits” (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern). Also, we learn that Mickey does have some backup after Minnie and company leave him behind when they go to the world-famous Ice Palace: Pluto the dog is still at home too.
Watch Mickey’s Home Alone on Thanksgiving day (Nov. 26) on Disney Jr. or Friday (Nov. 27) on Disney+.
