Christmas Visit

This album is a collection of Christmas songs from my back catalogue.

Christmas Visit is from 2004, and is about a young man who is welcoming to an old man on Christmas Eve. The old man, of course, is Santa, and he rewards this kindness by making Christmas Day the best ever. I'm overjoyed with how this song turned out, as at the time, I hadn't written any 'songs' before. I had mainly just done instrumentals. Possibly I peaked too early, who knows?

Candle in the Window is from 2006, and is a bit of a mickey-take of Candle in the Wind. It's supposed to be about a guy who has loved and lost, and hence is lonely at Christmas. However, you'll notice that a lot of the lyrics are clear references to Diana, Princess of Wales. It's not my best effort, but the production is good, so I've released it to the world.

Feasting from the Van of Life is an instrumental from 2004. I wrote it just because I had recording time to use up, and gave it a bit of a Christmasy feel. I thought I'd add it in, if anything, just to make the album longer. The Van of Life is a bit of an inside joke. If you do fancy visiting the Van of Life, it's a kebab van located in the centre of Cambridge.
