My favorite Christmas tunes are the sad sounding ones so I tried from the beginning to recreate that vibe. However, Christmas can be a bummer if you’re not in the mood for it. At its heart, this song is about helping someone that doesn’t want to take part in the pomp and circumstance that seems to walk hand in hand with the holidays. I imagined that the best way to assist is to get them as far from decking the halls as possible and if it turns a bit romantic… so be it!

Happy Holidays! I hope you’re in the mood.
