I think I’ve made it pretty clear that what I want for Christmas, it’s not something you can put into a box Every year it comes round like it’s never been before Soon I’ll look outside and see the snow That’s when you know, it’s Christmas time It’s that time of year again, sending all of my Christmas cards The tinsel and the trees come out, every house every street There’s something in the air tonight if you can hear beneath the bells There’s something in the air tonight that can only be Christmas Ready wrapping presents while the snow comes down All the final touches because it’s Christmas in the morning When markets come to town With blankets round the fire With presents passed around We’ll sing 2000 miles And blazing bold and bright, their faces as they shine, will keep us warm tonight, then you’ll know it’s Christmas time. I think I’ve made it pretty clear that what I want for Christmas, it’s not something you can put into a box We’ve all grown up so much this year, Through ups and downs we still made it here Some lonely days, some sleepless nights, but now it’s time to get up! Ready wrapping presents while the snow comes down All the final touches because it’s Christmas in the morning, and it’s coming tomorrow! When markets come to town With blankets round the fire With presents passed around We’ll sing 2000 miles And blazing bold and bright, their faces as they shine, will keep us warm tonight, then you’ll know it’s Christmas time. It’s the time I sing Christmas songs But we don’t care if the words are wrong Everybody’s coming round and everybody’s ready Everyone is welcome in our home tonight Turning down the music at the end of the night I open the door, bring in the new year with you When markets come to town With blankets round the fire With presents passed around We’ll sing 2000 miles And blazing bold and bright, their faces as they shine, will keep us warm tonight, then you’ll know it’s Christmas time.

about

When our songwriting duo Dan and Ben went back to their family houses for the holidays, they composed a Christmas song each, without the knowledge of the other. To celebrate this festive miracle we decided to record both tunes and release them as a double A-side for Christmas 2018.

One, 'Anyway, it's Christmas,' is a tale of melancholy and winter romance. The other, 'A Christmas Box,' is full of warmth and Yuletide cheer, with a chorus you'll be singing through to the New Year.
