Sometime after my birthday in November, I started feeling listless. The weather was getting colder, Daylight Savings meant that the days were getting shorter. I fall into a pit of S.A.D. every year, around this time.
I am powered by the sun, like many other people who are affected, and it's just something we have to deal with.
I figured it would be a good idea to throw myself into some sort of project that I could get excited about and look forward to each day. I decided on the Christmas cd.
I worked on it for several weeks. Some things ended up being a lot harder than I thought like it would be (like singing like Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas" - GEEZ) and things were recorded several times. And then again one more time.
Despite a few trial-and-error recording sessions, I had a really fun time making this. It served its purpose, and gave me a chance to be a bit creative and experiment with different sounds and instruments. I also shared it on fb, and I'll share it here.
To be honest with you, my favorites are: Christmas Waltz, Carol of the Bells, and O Come Emmanuel.
