Straight No Chaser released a parody of Walker Hayes’ chart-topping, GRAMMY-nominated single “Fancy Like” on Wednesday, Dec. 1. 

The all-male a cappella group, composed of Randy Stine, Tyler Trepp, Seggie Isho, Michael Luginbill, Walter Chase, Jerome Collins, Charlie Mechling, Steve Morgan, and Jasper Smith, shared the festive parody dubbed “Christmas Like” alongside a music video.

Throughout the joyful parody song, they detail all that is enjoyed during the holiday season, including fruitcake, egg nog, Santa Claus, matching Pjs, and more.

“So every now and then when I get paid / I got to spoil my Christmas with an upgrade / yeah, we Fancy Like, Applebees for the big night / got the Bourbon Street steak with the gingerbread shake / slice of fruitcake on the side too / sliced ham, canned yams / yo, I got you / boujee like egg nog in the styrofoam / Chris Kringle in the big sled all the way home / matching holiday pajamas and the sweater with the lights / that’s how we do, how we do Christmas like,” the group sing during the chorus.

Walker Hayes’ “Fancy Like” has topped every sales and streaming chart, spent over four months at the No.1 spot on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs, and hit the Top 5 on Billboard’s Hot 100 Songs. The song was co-Written by Hayes alongside Cameron Bartolini, Josh Jenkins, and Shane Stevens.

Since its release, “Fancy Like” has gone on to become a true viral sensation, with millions dancing to the track on TikTok and other social media platforms.

The song has been so successful that it caught the attention of Applebee’s, who recently teamed up with Hayes to star in a new television advertisement for the brand. Additionally, the restaurant chain has brought back the beloved Oreo Shake in honor of the song.

“For years, my wife Laney and I have been regulars at Applebee’s for date night, and I’ve always wanted to write a song about it,” Hayes recently shared. “The response to ‘Fancy Like,’ the dance and the fan love has been a dream come true – plus, Applebee’s even brought back their Oreo Cookie Shake! What’s better than that?”

Recently, Hayes shared his latest single, “AA,” and announced his forthcoming new project, Country Stuff The Album.

Arriving on January 21, 2022, Country Stuff The Album will feature his viral hit “Fancy Like,” as well as his previously released songs “U Gurl” and “AA.” Collaborations with Carly Pearce, Jake Owen, and Lori McKenna, and a re-imagined version of “Craig” featuring MercyMe also appear on the record.

Country Stuff The Album will be uniquely Hayes, and share a range of emotion from nostalgia and pain to joy and good old-fashioned fun.

“I’ve been waiting so long to put out a project like this,” Hayes said. “It has everything I love from the fun of ‘Fancy Like’ to the more personal lyrics in ‘AA.’ As an artist, it’s such a unique thing to be able to share all the different versions of you in a project, and that’s really what I tried to do here.”
