Post Jackson 5ive/Jacksons, did Michael ever make a Christmas/ holiday-related song?

[StarlightXX]

He didn't celebrate Christmas until 1993 so maybe after this, he may have made Christmas/ holiday songs?

There could be a demo of Children's Holiday.

The track is registered only under Jackson's name on ASCAP, making it likely he made a demo by himself as well, similarly to "People of the World".[1]

did he or J-Friends ever release this song officially as a single? (or even on a album/Christmas special?)

I'm pretty confident that Michael did not release it but I might be wrong

I'm guessing you know about Little Christmas Tree?

There was a CD found in the court documents of the Jeffre Phillips lawsuit from 2023 which had the name "Orchestral Holiday Songs" written on it, so there are those at least. They were most likely early ideas, though.

Christmas Star is a HIStory outtake. Michael recorded the song in 1994 according to Sundberg, watch the link below.
It's a cover version, composed by John Williams for Home Alone 2:

So Michael had an idea.
He wanted to record a Christmas song.
A song composed by John Williams for the soundtrack of Forgotten Me.
A song that ... had already been recorded.
That didn't stop Michael—he wanted to record it.
We quickly recorded the song (it probably took less than a day), but the highlight of the song is a children's choir. We had already assembled a children's choir in New York and I had the director's number in hand. Michael asked me to set a date when the choir could come in and sort out the details. Pretty easy.
