Alison Limerick says she ‘squealed’ with excitement over John Lewis Christmas advert

Alison Limerick John Lewis

Dance music icon Alison Limerick's classic track “Where Love Lives (Come On In)” will be the centrepiece of the 2025 John Lewis Christmas advert.
The festive commercial depicts a teenage son using music to express his emotions to his father.
Acclaimed artist and producer Labrinth has crafted a reimagined version of Limerick's 1990 club anthem for the advert.
Limerick expressed her excitement, stating she “squealed like an excited child” upon hearing the news, hoping for a new emotional connection to the song.
A special seven-inch single featuring both versions will be sold, with all profits supporting the John Lewis Partnership’s Building Happier Futures programme for care leavers.
