Zebrahead spent summer 2006 on the Warped Tour while their new album Broadcast to the World was released in Europe on July 3 through the German based record company SPV. The album which had come out in February of the same year in Japan, went gold in just over a month's time.
Due to Zebrahead's growing popularity in Japan, Matty Lewis and Zebrahead bandmate Ali Tabatabaee were asked by SEGA to record vocals for a new theme song, entitled "His World", which appears in the game Sonic The Hedgehog for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The entire band later recorded an alternate version of the song for the vocal soundtrack.
The rest of 2006 was spent touring Europe and the US as part of the Broadcast To The World Tour.
In March 2007, the band took two months off to begin writing new material for their, currently as of yet, untitled new studio album. The band later returned to Europe in May on a co-healine tour with MxPx and a headline UK tour. From June - July of the same year, Zebrahead toured America, supporting Unwritten Law with the band Bullets and Octane. On completion of the tour, Zebrahead spent more time writing material for their new album which had a planned release date of February, 2008.
Recently, after several of the active users at MFZB.com made it apparent they were in need of update from the band during this 'quiet' period, Zebrahead responded by posting a video update to YouTube which was promised as "the first of many". The video talks about the writing/recording process and has an update on Zebrahead's official fanclub.
October 2007 saw the return of Zebrahead to the UK as part of the annual Get Happy Tour where they shared the stage with Army of Freshmen, The Bloodhound Gang and Bowling For Soup. Zebrahead will be returning to Download 2008 (UK) after their first appearance in 2006. For the rest of 2007 the band continued to write songs for the new album. Demos were recorded and received input from Jason Freese of Green Day fame.
In March 2008 Zebrahead entered the studio and recorded 18 songs for their new album. The first two songs, including "Art Of Breaking Up" were recorded with Howard Benson, while the remaining 16 were recorded with Cameron Webb. Zebrahead released clips giving an insight into the making of the album the same month.
June saw Zebrahead return to the UK and Europe to headline a tour and play certain festival dates including Download, Leeds Slam Dunk Festival and Greenfield Festival. Several new songs from the upcoming album are likely to make their debut appearance in live form.
On May 17th 2008, it was revealed via the band's MySpace tagline that the upcoming album would be entitled "Phoenix". A day later, Zebrahead's fan blog, Postcards From Hell, revealed that the first single from the album would be entitled "Mental Health" and its music video was be directed by Elliot Dillman of Pandaworks.
In August 2010, Zebrahead has confirmed through video updates on their website that they have begun writing a new studio album. In the video, Ali Tabatabaee said that the band intends on entering the studio to record before the end of the year, and it has been mentioned through Twitter that the projected release date is early 2011.

All I Want for Christmas Is You
Zebrahead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There is 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
Yeah, 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
Yeah, all I want for Christmas
Is you, ooh, baby
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snon (and I)
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 (and I)
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, ooh, baby
And all the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of childrens'
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 quickly
I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just wanna see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh, I just want you 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, all I want for Christmas)
Ooh, baby, is you (all I want, all I want for Christmas)
Ooh, baby, is you (all I want, all I want for Christmas)
Ooh, baby, is you (all I want, all I want for Christmas)
All I want for Christmas is you
The lyrics of Zebrahead’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” are a clear indication of the desire to have a loved one close by during the festive period. The song’s message is that the singer does not care about the material aspects of Christmas gifts, like presents or stockings hung on the mantlepiece, but instead desires the one he loves to be with him on this special day. The focus of the lyrics is on the importance of having somebody special to spend the holiday season with, and the singer craves nothing else but the presence and love of the person he cares most about.
The lyrics echo the sentiments of many people during the holiday season. Although Christmas is often associated with material gifts, the song stresses the importance of relationships and love over material things, and that the joy of Christmas comes from being surrounded by people we care about. The singer is willing to sacrifice everything - even Santa Claus - to have that special someone with him on Christmas day. The lyrics are a reminder that Christmas is a time to cherish the people we love most and that the presence of someone special can make all the difference.

I don't want a lot for Christmas
I have a simple wish for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
There's only one thing I truly desire
I don't care about the presents
I'm not interested in gifts
Underneath the Christmas tree
Gifts wrapped and waiting under the tree
I just want you for my own
You're the one thing I want the most
More than you could ever know
Nothing else comes close to my desire for you
Make my wish come true
Please make my dream become a reality
Yeah, all I want for Christmas
This is my one and only Christmas wish
Is you
I want nothing else but you
I don't need to hang my stocking
I'm not interested in the traditional Christmas decorations
There upon the fireplace
I don't need anything to be displayed in our fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
I no longer believe that Santa Claus brings happiness
With a toy on Christmas day
I won't be satisfied with tangible presents
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't be making multiple requests this Christmas

I won't be wishing for the snow to come this Christmas
I'm just gonna keep on waiting

To the North Pole for Saint Nick (and I)
I won't be sending a Christmas list to Santa at the North Pole

I won't be up all night waiting for Santa

'Cause I just want you here tonight
All I want is your presence by my side tonight
Holding on to me so tight
Hugging and holding me close
What more can I do?
I've done everything I can, except have you here with me
Baby all I want for Christmas
You're the only thing I want for Christmas
And all the lights are shining
The city is covered in a beautiful bright glow
So brightly everywhere
The light is everywhere you look
And the sound of children's laughter fills the air
The kids are laughing with joy and excitement
And everyone is singing
People are sharing the Christmas spirit through song
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
I can hear the iconic sound of the sleigh bells
(Santa won't you bring me)
I'm making a not so subtle hint at Santa
(The one I really need)
I want YOU for Christmas
Won't you please bring my baby to me quickly
Please bring my significant other to me soon
This is all I'm asking for
I'm not being greedy, this one request is enough
I just wanna see my baby
I just want to be with my love this Christmas
Standing right outside my door
I want you at my doorstep, ready to spend Christmas with me
All I want for Christmas is you
There is only one person I want to spend Christmas with, and it's you
(all I want, all I want for Christmas)
I'm quite persistent about my desire for you this Christmas
Ooh, baby, is you
The one thing that would make my Christmas is having you with me
(all I want, all I want for Christmas)
I won't stop reiterating it, you're all I want for Christmas
Ooh, baby, is you
I only wish to spend Christmas with one person, and it's you
(all I want, all I want for Christmas)
I've made it clear, your presence is all I desire this Christmas
Ooh, baby, is you
I'm slightly obsessed with you, especially during the Christmas season
All I want for Christmas is you
I won't ask for anything else, just you
