about

Originally released as part of the stellar compilation A KOOL KAT KRISTMAS VOL. 3, I am releasing "Noche Buena" digitally in celebration of my 2nd straight Independent Music Award nomination, this time for Best Holiday Song!

You can still buy the full album on CD - and you should because physical product is superior, plus one third of all proceeds go to the American Cancer Society. Buy the CD here: bit.ly/KristmasVol3CD

As always, listen LOUD, and with the knowledge that "Noche Buena" is only BARELY a Christmas song, and should really be listened to all year 'round!

lyrics

It was cold the night you made me question my own mind
You were bold; you stood out in the open air
Wind was blowing
White beard flowing
Jolly soul glowing in the night

Strange and wondrous being appeared in red
Were you alive or were you dead?
Were you only in my head?

Yes, I know, a single sound did not escape your lips
Even so, you spoke to me another way
Light beamed through me
Calling to me
I seemed to be in the sky

All my life I've wondered what you said
Was it all lies, was I misled?
Were you only in my head?
Was it you or was it me who fled?
Slowing down time, a gingerbread sled
Two worlds forbidden to be wed
Strange and wondrous being appeared in red
Are you alive or are you dead?

I guess I can always
Take some solace
In the fact that I'll be back to find out ...
And I will ...
Yes, I will ...
Yes, I will ...
