Like Sean Quigley's (from Winnipeg, Manitoba - Canada) viral version of the Little Drummer Boy, this original Chirstmas song is by Denny DeMarchi. Denny is from Toronto, Canada and played with Dolores O'Riordan, The Cranberries & Alias. This song really puts me into the Christmas spirit. Denny wrote and plays all instruments on this song. What a talent. It addresses many issues many people around the world are feeling these days. I love the third verse "How does all this offend you? What part don't you get". What a beautiful Christmas song. MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL. It's a great modern day Christmas song. I enjoy it as much as traditional favorites such as White Chirstmas, Silent Night, Jingle Bells, O Holy Night, Frosty The Snowman, Deck the Halls, Away In The Manger, Joy to the World, The First Noel, We three kinds of orient are, 12 days of Christmas, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is coming to town (Bruce Springsteen version is great) etc. PLEASE DON'T LET ANYONE TAKE "CHRISTMAS" AWAY FROM YOU. SHARE THIS SONG WITH THE WORLD. I think it's great. Support Canadian talent. I have seen Denny play Gibson USA SG, Les Paul, Fender Stratocaster and Telecaster. His amps were Marshall, Mesa Boogie, Engl, Bogner. with Dunlop, Boss and MXR pedals.
LYRICS
The manager said that we
Could go home early
My car was stuck deep in the snow
Then a stranger stopped and helped me to go
I had to walk across the street
People stopped their cars for me
Everywhere that you go
Strangers smile and say hello
Generosity... just comes pouring out
Humanity...
Has a chance at survival on this Day
Christmas Day... Should never end
Wish this day...Could Start Again
Christmas Day... Should never end
Wish this day...Could Start Again
The lady at the candy store
Said that I could take one more
The beggar gave his last dime
Then he smiled and said "it's Christmas time"
Generosity... just comes pouring out
Humanity..
Has a chance at survival on this Day
Christmas Day... Should never end
Wish this day...Could Start Again
Christmas Day... Should never end
Wish this day...Could Start Again
So how could all this offend you???
What part of it don't you get????
So much goodness around you... all around you!!
Christmas Day... Should never end
Wish this day...Could Start Again
Christmas Day... Should never end
Wish this day...Could Start Again
Excellent job. Great song with lots of meaning.
