'Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse' Christmas Songs Being Released This Week; Hear 'Spidey-Bells' Now
One of the funniest gags in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is A Very Spidey Christmas, the Christmas album released by everyone's favorite web-slinger. At first, the album is presented as a quick joke. But during the end credits, we get to hear one of the songs in full – as sung by Chris Pine. Sadly, the song was not included on the original soundtrack release. But now, just in time for the holiday, A Very Spidey Christmas will be released in EP form on December 21. Best of all: you can hear "Spidey-Bells", the closing credits songs, right now.
I was very surprised when "Spidey-Bells", the hilarious Chris Pine-performed tune that plays over Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse's end credits, didn't make its way onto the film's soundtrack, but now I know why. They were saving it for just the right moment. And that right moment is now, because you can listen to "Spidey-Bells" right this very minute.
