With two other characters from GTST she formed the spin-off girl group Linda, Roos & Jessica. Their debut single "Ademnood" (English version: "Turn Your Love Around'") topped the Dutch charts in late 1995. Katja continued to release singles with both LR&J and on her own. She had hits with:Maar nu heb ik er een, Wereldmeid, Totaal Verkocht and Lover or friend.
One of the challenges saw Katja recording a Christmas single with the innovative rap-trio De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig; it was the one exception to her decision not to pursue a singing career ("Lack of discipline" she told nl.20-magazine).
I Want To Know
Katja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas
I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You baby
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want him for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you baby
All I want for Christmas is you baby
In the song "All I Want for Christmas is You" by Katja, the lyrics convey a strong desire for love and companionship during the holiday season rather than material gifts or traditional holiday symbols. The song emphasizes the importance of having someone special in their life, and suggests that their presence would make the singer's holiday complete.
The first verse starts by stating that the singer doesn't want a lot of things for Christmas, but there is one thing they truly need. They express that material possessions or presents under the Christmas tree are not as significant as having the person they love by their side. The lyrics make it clear that the singer's ultimate wish is for their loved one to be with them during the holiday season.
In the second verse, the singer reiterates that presents and traditional holiday customs aren't essential to their happiness. They don't need to hang stockings or receive gifts from Santa Claus. The focus remains on wanting their loved one, emphasizing the depth of their desire and how it surpasses any materialistic or superficial aspects associated with Christmas.
The third verse takes a more relaxed approach, where the singer mentions that they won't expect or ask for much during Christmas. The snow and traditional Christmas elements are not important either. They articulate their willingness to wait patiently, hoping to spend the holiday season underneath the mistletoe with their loved one. The mention of sending a list to Santa Claus and staying awake to listen for the reindeer represent the abandonment of traditional Christmas expectations, as all they truly want is their loved one's presence.
The final part of the song highlights the joy and festive atmosphere of Christmas, with references to the shining lights, children's laughter, and the sound of sleigh bells. Despite this, the singer emphasizes that the most significant thing they desire is their loved one. They plea to Santa Claus to bring their beloved to them, expressing that nothing else will truly make them happy during the holiday season.
Overall, the lyrics of "All I Want for Christmas is You" express a longing for love and companionship during Christmas, valuing the presence of a loved one above all material possessions or traditional holiday customs. The song reminds us that the true spirit of Christmas lies in the warmth and joy shared with the people we care about.

I have simple desires for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
There is only one thing that truly matters to me
I don't care about the presents
Material gifts hold no value to me
Underneath the Christmas tree
The physical display of presents is insignificant
I just want you for my own
All I truly desire is your presence and love
More than you could ever know
The depth of my longing surpasses your understanding
Make my wish come true
Grant me the fulfillment of my desire
All I want for Christmas
My sole desire for this holiday season
Is you
Is your companionship and affection
I don't need to hang my stocking
Decorative traditions hold no significance to me
There upon the fireplace
Positioning a stocking holds no importance
Santa Claus won't make me happy
The arrival of Santa Claus doesn't bring joy to my heart
With a toy on Christmas day
Material possessions cannot fulfill my happiness
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I have minimal expectations for this holiday season
I won't even wish for snow

I will patiently anticipate
Underneath the mistletoe
In a place where love and affection may be shared
I won't make a list and send it
I won't compile a catalog to be sent
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
To the mythical domain of Santa Claus
I won't even stay awake to
I won't remain conscious to
Hear those magic reindeer click
Listen to the sound of reindeer hooves
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Because all I desire is your presence in this moment
Holding on to me so tight
Embracing me with great strength and affection
What more can I do
I wonder what additional efforts I can make
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
My dearest wish for Christmas is to have you by my side
All the lights are shining
The illumination of numerous lights awakens the surroundings
So brightly everywhere
In a radiant and vibrant manner, spreading in every direction
And the sound of children's
The joyful noise created by the laughter of children
Laughter fills the air
Filling the atmosphere with an atmosphere of happiness
And everyone is singing
Every individual is engaging in joyous songs
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
The resonating sound of bells attached to a sleigh reaches my ears
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Santa, I implore you to deliver the individual I truly require
Won't you please bring my baby to me
I humbly request for you to bring my beloved to my presence
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
I have modest desires for the Christmas season
This is all I'm asking for
This singular request is my entirety of desire
I just want to see my baby
I simply long to lay eyes upon my beloved
Standing right outside my door
Stationed immediately adjacent to my entrance
Oh I just want him for my own
Oh, I yearn to have him exclusively to myself
More than you could ever know
My yearning surpasses any comprehension
Make my wish come true
Fulfill my heartfelt desire
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
My sole wish for this holiday is to have you, my dear
All I want for Christmas is you baby
The only thing I crave for this festive season is you, my love
All I want for Christmas is you baby
You, my dear, are the sole desire of my heart for Christmas
