Bon Jovi's music video release came after its frontman, Jon Bon Jovi, commented on the songwriting and recording of the song.

"'Christmas Isn't Christmas' is a song that I wrote about family," he said, per Blabbermouth. "The sentiment that Christmas really isn't Christmas without YOU, which can bring up a lot of memories for people. I also liked to turn it around and know that because of you Christmas IS Christmas."

Fans expressed their excitement after seeing and hearing the track, leaving praises on the video's comments section.

One said, "It's so good to see Tico, David, Phill, John Shanks, Everett and Hugh smile. I love seeing everyone together. Thank you for warming our hearts with this song and video!"

"I watched the entire video smiling and singing along, it´s so beautiful to see you guys once again with a new song. Lovely video, beautiful song, just Bon Jovi ladies and gentleman. Congratulations. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!" another wrote.

Before the recent release, Bon Jovi previously shared holiday songs, including "I Wish Everyday Could Be Like Christmas." The band also made covers of "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" and "Please Come Home For Christmas."

Bon Jovi's celebration came after the frontman officially became a 2024 MusiCares Person of the Year, an award he will receive on February 2, 2024, before the 66th annual Grammy Awards on February 4, 2024.

"I'm truly humbled to be this year's MusiCares honoree. MusiCares' work with music professionals is vitally important in creating much needed support and wellness programs that cultivate a healthier and more vibrant community for us all," he wrote in a press release.

Once awarded, Jon will be the second musician from New Jersey to score the recognition after Bruce Springsteen became the 2013 MusiCares Person of the Year. He will also be the youngest solo honoree since Don Henley got it in 2007 when he was 59.
