(1) Wizzard was Roy Wood’s post- ELO project. Formed in Wood's hometown of Birmingham, Warwickshire in 1972, they made catchy, jazzy glam-rock hit singles like "Angel Fingers" and "See My Baby Jive" with a retro, Phil Spector-style "wall of sound" production. At the same time, they produced decidedly odd, almost avant-garde albums like Wizzard Brew. They remained active until around 1975.
(2) One of them is a 'blackened' heavy metal band from Finland. It enjoyed some success in Finland and Germany though even some fans wondered why they had taken the name of Roy Wood's famous band – the other z was actually added because the band didn't want to be confused with the German band Wizard. The band was founded by Teemu Kautonen as his solo-project in August 1995, and he handled all the instruments on the first demo, Teemu moved the band to Germany in April 1997 adding new local musicians CY and Daniel to the line-up. In August Teemu returned to Finland, but moved back to Germany in January 2001, and CY and Daniel came along again. Also a new guitarist Johnny joined the band.
Last known lineup:
Teemu Kautonen aka Hexenmeister - Vocals, originally also Bass & Guitars
CY aka Grobi - Drums
Daniel - Lead Guitars, Bass
Johnny - Rhythm Guitars

Wizzard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, when the snowman brings the snow
Oh, well he just might like to know
He's put a great big smile on somebody's face
If you jump into your bed
Quickly cover up your head
Don't you lock the doorsYou know that sweet Santa Claus is on the way
Oh, well I wish it could be Christmas everyday
Oh, when the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
Let the bells ring out for Christmas (Christmas)
Oh, when we're skating in the park
If the snow cloud makes it dark
Then your rosy cheeks are gonna light my merry way
Now the frosty paws appear
And they've frozen up my ear
So we'll lie by the fire
'Til the sleet simply knocks 'em all away
Well I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
So let the bells ring out for Christmas
Oh, when the snowman brings the snow (when the snowman brings the snow)
Oh, well he just might like to know (well he just might like to know)
He's put a great big smile on somebody's face
So if Santa brings that sleigh (Santa brings that sleigh)
All along the milky way (along the milky way)I'll sign my name on the rooftop in the snow
Then he may decide to stay
Oh, well I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
So let the bells ring out for Christmas
Under your arms, check it
Oh, well I wish it could be Christmas everyday (Christmas everyday)
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play (oh)
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
Let the bells ring out for Christmas
Why don't you give your love for Christmas
(When the snowman brings the snow)
(When the snowman brings the snow)
(When the snowman brings the snow)
(When the snowman brings the snow)
(When the snowman brings the snow)
(When the snowman brings the snow)

Then he may decide to stay
Encouraging Santa Claus to stick around and spread joy
Under your arms, check it
