I am a lover of Christmas: the season, the weather, the movies, and of course, the MUSIC. And I will forever try my hand at creating new, original Christmas songs, whether or not anyone is asking me for them haha! :) So here’s my song for this year, 2020. What a year. I was lucky enough to have my niece, Journey, in town at the same time I was recording it, and I was already entertaining the idea of having a female singer on it with me, so it was perfect timing! She’s a terrific singer (she’s 17!), and we had some fun recording it.

Lorraine is an angel. This song is a fantasy story of a boy who needs all the structures of the world to fall in order to reach the girl he believes he loves. He won’t know until he reaches her. Is it worth sacrificing the world as he knows it?

The artwork is very special to me. It’s an oil on canvas painted by the magnificent Lorraine Christie. And it hangs on my wall as I speak :) I had it commissioned especially for this song. It speaks to me in so many ways, not the least of which is its color.
