Jive Bunny's three number ones were "Swing the Mood", "That's What I Like" and "Let's Party". All three songs used sampling and synthesisers to combine pop music from the early rock and roll era together into a medley. The results were somewhat like the earlier Stars on 45, who actually hired "sound-alike" singers and musicians to recreate the music from scratch.

Jive Bunny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
Just like the ones I used to know
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
And may all your Christmases be white (all your Christmases be white)
And may all your Christmases be white (all your Christmases be white)
And may all your Christmases be
(All your Christmases be white)
(All your Christmases be white)

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
I wish for a snowy Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Like the childhood Christmases I remember
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
Where snow-covered trees shine and kids eagerly await the sound of ringing sleigh bells
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
To listen for the sound of jingling bells as Santa's sleigh passes overhead
With every Christmas card I write
Whenever I send a holiday greeting
May your days be merry and bright
I hope you have a joyful and festive season
And may all your Christmases be white
And I hope every Christmas you experience is filled with snow
And may all your Christmases be white (all your Christmases be white)
I really mean it, not just once but every year
And may all your Christmases be white (all your Christmases be white)
I mean it so much, I'll say it again
And may all your Christmases be
I hope each and every Christmas you have…
(All your Christmases be white)
...is a snowy one.
