Giveon Releases Cover of Christmas Classic ‘First Noel’ As His Hit ‘Still Your Best’ Goes Platinum

Nearly two years after winning acclaim for his Apple Music exclusive take on the yuletide classic ‘O Christmas Tree,’ R&B sensation Giveon is garnering a similar reaction for Amazon Music thanks to his stirring rendition of ‘The First Noel.’

Part of the platform’s annual Original Songs series, Giveon joins this year’s superstar contributors Lizzo and Kane Brown – the latest set of big names from a list that includes previous covers from Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, Camila Cabello, and others.

Hop inside to hear his take on the historic holiday tune.

The Christmas drop came shortly before the seven-time GRAMMY nominee learned his 2021 single, ‘Still Your Best,’ had crossed the threshold for Platinum certification at the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).  This means it’s sold 1 million copies in the United States.

Found on his 2020 EP ‘When It’s All Said And Done,’ ‘Best’ comes as the fifth single of his career to earn such status (or higher) at the RIAA. It follows his previously certified hits ‘For Tonight,’ ‘Stuck on You,’ ‘Like I Want You,’ and ‘Heartbreak Anniversary.’

The upgrades help push his career-long digital sales to 10.5 million in the U.S. (as of time reported).

And though it’s not credited to his cumulative tally, Giveon is also attached to the 4x Platinum Justin Bieber single, ‘Peaches,’ alongside Daniel Caesar.
