I had this single on cassette back when it came out. I was in high school. This has become a “must listen to” classic and is permanently in my Christmas music rotation and played often during the season. Even my mom liked this version and she wasn’t at all into Rock music of that time.
I've wanted to hear this for over 20 years. I had the original cassette. Yes, they were a bit poppy for a metal band but I do enjoy a good deal of their heavier songs. This song is hilarious to me and they did a fine job on it.
They would have been really huge if they had come out with their new stuff, including what Mikey has done on his latest two solo albums, one of them with George Lynch, back in the '80's.
Wow it's been almost 40 years(!!!) since I first heard this song on the radio, and have wondered that entire time who the song was by. Mystery solved! And that means that this was actually the first Stryper song I ever heard!
I have a warped picture disc of this song, with Reason for the Season on the other side. Found it at a thrift store for a couple bucks. After setting some heavy stuff on top of it for a while, it's at least playable. Glad to know it's on YT.
Winter Wonderland Sleigh bells ring Are you listening In the lane snow is glistening A beautiful sight We're happy tonight Walking in a winter wonderland Gone away is the bluebird Here to stay is a new bird He sings a love song As we go along Walking in a winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say: Are you married? We'll say: No man But you can do the job when you're in town Later on we'll conspire As we dream by the fire To face unafraid The plans that we've made Walking in a winter wonderland.
Almost impossible to find this on CD... as far as I know, it's only on the 2000 reissue of To Hell With the Devil that was sold on Michael Sweet's website, and a Japanese pressing of The Yellow & Black Attack. Other than that it's just vinyl or the live version like you said!

No my Friend : I even play this song for years on guitar, drums and bass - my favourite christmas-song !!
This is the best version of this song!
This is my favorite version of winter wonderland I wish stryper would do a Christmas album
For sure
They also sing "Reason for the Season"
Me too. I've actually suggested it to Michael.
Considering that Bon Jovi did one, I'm amazed that STRYPER hasn't.
I wish Stryper would do a whole Christmas album.
This never gets old! Best version of this! Brings back memories🤘
Touche love them 80's bands

"Wild Man" Dean yeah, man!
Ha, Ha!
Someone who lives in LA must have written this song! If you live in that stuff it’s just white awful!!!!!
2019!! Still listening
Had the picture disc of this , my sisters boyfriend was their publicist.
+Todd McGrath I did too. No idea where it ended up. Probably in a box somewhere.
Had this on vinyl back in the day. This was the first thing I ever heard from Stryper. Good times.
I've wanted to hear this for over 20 years. I had the original cassette. Yes, they were a bit poppy for a metal band but I do enjoy a good deal of their heavier songs. This song is hilarious to me and they did a fine job on it.
+Jerry Meadows Their newer stuff is really good, less poppy, definitely metal.
They would have been really huge if they had come out with their new stuff, including what Mikey has done on his latest two solo albums, one of them with George Lynch, back in the '80's.
Stryper was part of the pretty glam boys scene but they showed that u can look like one but sound like something else.
They weren't a "small" band.
The "In God We Trust" tour was nothing to sneeze at, and "Honestly" was on heavy rotation just about Everywhere.
The guitarist was one of the best in the business. They were a heavy band as far as glam rock bands.
I bought this very single (same cover as the 'title picture') that year. I still play it every Christmas. Now a classic in its own right! :-)
Xmas done right! Cassette days!
What year did this come out
@@ryansvloggingit5492 I first heard this for Christmas of 87' Pretty sure is was that year or 86'
@@michaelreffett6584 I think it's 1984/85
Yes Cassette!!!
2023 Christmas boyyyyÿ
Still have it on vinyl!!!

Good memories, man. Thanks!
My favorite Stryper song... AND fav version of "Winter Wonderland". Had this on a 12" as a high schooler...
STRYPER RULES !!! 🙏👍🙏
Winter Wonderland
Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening
In the lane snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say: Are you married?
We'll say: No man
But you can do the job when you're in town
Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Had this on cassette and man, great memories. Thanks for posting.

I have the Vinyl 12 inch single also, but when it comes to cd I always seem to find the "Live" version and the "studio" version is much better.
Almost impossible to find this on CD... as far as I know, it's only on the 2000 reissue of To Hell With the Devil that was sold on Michael Sweet's website, and a Japanese pressing of The Yellow & Black Attack. Other than that it's just vinyl or the live version like you said!
Love their version of this song. I had it on a picture disc by them but don't know where it is.
It wound up in a thrift store, warped.
