I’m proud to share with you all my first Christmas song I’ve ever written! I’ve been trying to write one for the last five years but with no success. This year I decided to go about it a different way. I read Slade wrote ‘Merry Xmas Everybody’ using random melodies and chords they’d not been able to use previously. So I took two basic song ideas I’d saved in my phone (some dating back to almost two years ago) and created this song. It’s untitled because I don’t quite know what to call it yet 🙂

I don’t have any decent means of recording anymore so please excuse the quality. My voice is also terrible – it’s bad enough normally but I currently have a cold so it’s a little croaky and stuff. I’m not a singer though! I hope you enjoy and let me know if you like it :’)

LYRICS:

All festive spirit’s up, all bad feeling must come down

And forgiveness and love are feelings that are found

This once a year where dizzy highs lift us off the ground

In this festive season when the sleigh bells sound

Look around

CHORUS                                                                                                                                                                   (la, la, la, la, la, la) What is your resistance for?                                                                                                   (la, la, la, la, la, la) Make love not war                                                                                                                      (la, la, la, la, la, la) What else is Christmas for?

Stars are shining bright, all spirits light the night

When love illuminates, the world’s a pretty sight

A time for loving and living, a season for giving

A time to make amends, to make two wrongs a right

CHORUS                                                                                                                                                     

(la, la, la, la, la, la) What is your resistance for?                                                                                                (la, la, la, la, la, la) Make love not war                                                                                                                     (la, la, la, la, la, la) What else is Christmas for?

MIDDLE EIGHT                                                                                                                      

Shine your Christmas light

Peace on earth, time to unite

The room’s full of smiles and worry’s free from our minds

It’s a chance to leave this year behind

CHORUS                                                                                                                                                                   (la, la, la, la, la, la) What is your resistance for?                                                                                                  (la, la, la, la, la, la) Make love not war                                                                                                                 (la, la, la, la, la, la) What else is Christmas for?
