Tinselfirs present “Hello Christmas”, a nostalgic yet modern song celebrating the essence of the holiday season. Discover their new Christmas album!
The songwriting duo Tinselfirs, a married couple known for their deep love of Christmas, has released their latest single, Hello Christmas. This track, the heart of their album Christmas Collection Volume Two, celebrates the holiday season with a unique blend of nostalgia and modern flair. With Hello Christmas, Tinselfirs bring the magic of the holidays straight to their listeners, creating the perfect soundtrack for the most anticipated time of the year.
“With ‘Hello Christmas’, we aimed to evoke feelings of nostalgia while also bringing something new to the table. We wanted hearing ‘Hello Christmas’ to feel like ‘Christmas’ the way ‘pumpkin-spiced lattes’ feel like ‘fall’.“
The song opens with a warm greeting to the festive season:
“Hello Christmas, hello Christmas, you’ve been on my mind
Even through the summer
Hello Christmas, you’ve got so much shine, hello Christmas”
This chorus, repeated tenderly, conveys the idea that Christmas is more than just a season, it’s a state of mind that can accompany us all year long. The soothing melody and harmonious vocals of Tinselfirs evoke a familiar atmosphere, capturing the anticipation and joy the holidays bring.
The lyrics stand out for their lighthearted and authentic comparisons between Christmas and other seasons:
“Some people like July, a picnic on the beach
Some people like when the leaves fall on the street
But I like winter, with my ugly sweater
Running around saying Merry Christmas“
These lines celebrate the uniqueness of the holiday season compared to other times of the year, describing an unconditional love for the simple yet special moments winter offers. The song continues this playful dichotomy with catchy and relatable phrases:
“Everyone else is dreaming of summer
Everyone else is dreaming of spring
Everyone else is pumpkin spice lattes
But to me it’s a Christmas dream”
The pumpkin spice latte metaphor highlights seasonal trends that fade in comparison to the magic of Christmas. For Tinselfirs, the real dream involves twinkling lights, decorated trees, and cheerful carols.
In the next refrain, Tinselfirs dive even deeper into the festive spirit:
“You can have New Year’s Eve, you can have the fall
You can have spring, he can have it will take all
I need my Christmas tree, I need my Christmas lights
I need my Christmas songs blaring all night”
These lines emphasize a strong connection to the holiday season, portraying it as more than just a time of year but as a moment of togetherness, music, and tradition. Tinselfirs’ poetic imagery takes listeners back to childhood memories and family rituals, making the song both universal and personal.
In the closing verses, the chorus returns with renewed intensity, adding a joyful touch:
“Oh oh oh, a Christmas thing
Hello Christmas
Hello Christmas
Hello Christmas”
With Hello Christmas, Tinselfirs reaffirm their place as key players in modern Christmas music. Their signature harmonies, heartfelt lyrics, and engaging arrangements create an experience that bridges past and present. The song is an invitation to embrace the season with warmth and joy, reminding everyone of the magic Christmas brings.
With this release, Tinselfirs once again show that their passion for Christmas is infectious and that their music is the perfect gift for this special season.
