"Holiday" is the fourth and final single released from Naughty by Nature's fifth album, Nineteen Naughty Nine: Nature's Fury. It was released on October 20, 1999 and was the final release that Naughty by Nature released during their short-lived tenure at Arista Records. The song narrowly missed the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks, instead making it to #1 on the Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles. The song went Top 10 in Australia, becoming the group's biggest selling single there.
The song is built entirely around a dramatically slowed down sample of Change's 1980 #1 US Dance hit single A Lover's Holiday.
