This is my new Christmas song for the year. It has a double meaning for me and that's why I call it "The Last Christmas"! Charlie did a good job singing it and I joined him in spots! I wrote it during the hot summer this year, so go figure!!😂 I used up all the tracks I had available to record it (I'm old school, give me a break!) and I had tons of fun recording all the parts too! The song at the end during the credits is another Christmas song I wrote back in 2001 called "Have A Very Merry Christmas" with Sharri singing and Charlie and me doing background vocals. Check both out I have a video each one! This video was super fun to create, I spent a lot of time and effort on it, the sleigh ride with Santa is especially cool! I added a lot of eye-candy and special audio effect here and there. This video is for the whole family so feel free to share it with loved ones and watch it together.

Now for the secret double meaning of this song!! It's a sad tale, so prepare yourselves! Back when I was in high school, back in ancient times, there was a very pretty girl in our English class named Chrissy, she was very nice and sweet, I sat next to her and she was very smart and let us dumb guys cheat off of her papers sometimes!😂 Anyway for almost the whole year I never realized that her real name was Christmas, we all called her Chrissy. There was something very sad about Chrissy, I didn't know what it was but the next year Chrissy never returned to school? Later, I found out she had leukemia, I think? She never returned to school after that and some of the kids told me she had sadly passed away however I'm not sure about that but I never did she her again. So this song is for her and after all these years she popped back in my brain?! So let's all enjoy Christmas this year with family and friends because you never know when it will be your Last Christmas! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all and Happy New Year!! 🙏😎✌🏼🎅🧑🏻🎄🤶🌟💫☃️🎁🎈🪅🎊❤️💝
“THE LAST CHRISTMAS”
CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, IS HERE AGAIN,
CHRISTMAS THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, DON'T LET IT END,
WILL WE LAUGH? WILL WE CRY?
WILL WE SAY OUR LAST GOODBYES?
OH CHRISTMAS, SWEET CHRISTMAS,
PLEASE DON'T DIE,
CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, THE TIME HAS COME,
CHRISTMAS, THE LAST CHRISTMAS,
CHRISTMAS, WHAT HAVE WE DONE?
WILL WE SMILE? WILL WE WEEP?
COUNT OUR BLESSINGS IN OUR SLEEP?
OH CHRISTMAS, FORGIVE US,
CHRISTMAS PLEASE,
SWEET CHRISTMAS PLEASE,
SNOW IS HERE, LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT,
THE TREE IS TRIMMED WITH LOVE TONIGHT,
RUDOLPH'S READY FOR HIS FINAL FLIGHT,
AH AH, AH AH, AH AH, AH AH,
WILL WE SMILE? WILL WE WEEP?
COUNT OUR BLESSINGS IN OUR SLEEP?
OH CHRISTMAS, FORGIVE US,
CHRISTMAS PLEASE, SWEET CHRISTMAS PLEASE,
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS,
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS,
BYE BYE CHRISTMAS,
BYE BYE.
