Lyrics:

Verse 1
I really hate the cold, so depressed by the dark
These gifts, give and take
Overshoots the mark

Verse 2
It’s a lie for sure, none of this is true
It's an outdated rite, just an ordinary night
It's pretty stupid what we do

Chorus
But all of us keep going, as if we didn’t mind
What do we hope to find?
But all of us keep going, nothing ever stops
We’re all christmas blind
Call it christmas blind

Verse 3
So funny ever after, how we are trying to repair
The mess of holy christmas
The restless search for kindness
The xmas madness that we shared

Klasse, toll wenn am Arbeitsplatz so begabte Musiker zusammen rocken!

This may be the best of the Christmas mix contest songs so far. The song, vocals, instrumentals, production, and mixing are great. The mix is so good that it is hard to imagine that anyone entering the contest could do better. Kudos to all.

[AndreaM.Drummer]

Fantastic Song and contest. Cheers from italy

[AnimusInvidious]

Heavy... sweet!

Always love doing these xmas mix contests, i learn a lot each time.

I just submitted my mix for the contest. I didn't want to listen to Dennis' mix until I submitted mine so as not to be too influenced by it. Great song! Wonderful instrumentation and musicianship! I had a blast mixing this song and learned a TON! Many thanks to HOFA for hosting this mixing contest!

[MichaelLenz]

Nice! Reminds me a Rainbow! So I'm in!

Was ist denn das für ein Tasteninstrument welches ab 00:56 zu hören ist? Das klingt so funky

[YoungTimzo]

Nice. What's the tempo on it? I couldn't find it on the contest portal. I'm sure that's an oversight on my part.

I'm a David Readman fan. Pink Cream 69, Adagio, etc... :)
