Holiday Single Released: "Christmas Snow"




So I did this Christmas song and here's kind of the story behind it. Last year I wrote this poem called "Christmas Snow". Being from the South, snow on Christmas is something that I hope for but it very rarely occurs. Anyway, I would walk around the house reciting this "Christmas Snow" poem in a cockney accent much to the amusement of my four year old son (hey when Dad can get a laugh, he milks it).

I'd kind of always wanted to do a Christmas song so this Fall I started experimenting with putting the words to music. Things got really crazy busy and I almost didn't get it done, but last weekend I put in some hours on it, uploaded to Tunecore last Monday and by Wednesday it was up on Amazon...iTunes link should be up soon. No CD's on this one, digital only.

So there it is... guess you could say i'm dreaming of a white Christmas.



Christmas Snow

Christmas snow oh what a delight
It sparkles just like Christmas lights
You know I've only seen it twice
Since I was a boy

In Nome it's common as the air
But where I'm from it's very rare
And sometimes I don't think it's fair
On a balmy Christmas day

Christmas snow oh what a delight
It sparkles just like Christmas lights
You know I've only seen it twice
Since I was a boy

Now Christmas time is very near
And Christmas snow may come this year
I hope on Christmas morn I'll hear,
"Daddy, look! It's snowing!"
