What the world needs now is a sweet, funny Christmas commercial starring a lovable but slightly miserable boxer dog.

British retail chain John Lewis unveiled its 2016 holiday ad this week and the 2-minute video has been watched nearly 400,000 times already.

The chain's Christmas commercials have become an event in the United Kingdom for the past decade. The company's 2007 spot saw a record budget and became a favorite with British viewers. It has produced a big-budget holiday ad every year since.

The 2016 spot, starring a boxer named Buster, features a cover of the 1980 song "One Day I'll Fly Away," originally by Randy Crawford.

Watch the commercial below.
