Witherspoon and Johansson then join Fallon, singing, "The mood is right/ The spirits up/ We're here tonight/ And that's enough/ Simply having a wonderful Christmas time."

Kelly joins McConaughey, Johansson and Fallon, singing, "The choir of children sing their song/ They practiced all year long/ Ding dong, ding dong/ Ding dong, ding dong." Towards the end of the clip, McCartney enters the frame, singing, "We're here tonight/ And that's enough/ Simply having a wonderful Christmas time/ Simply having a wonderful Christmas time." The clip also features some characters in the movie, including koala Buster Moon, mouse Mike, Indian elephant Meena, green iguana Karen Crawly, domestic pigs Rosita and Norman, porcupine Ash and a snail.
