34 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!
Buy-stream-adore Jody's holiday single here (external link)
It's the most wonderful time of the year and amazing, legendary singer Jody Watley has just made it even better by releasing a Christmas single. She sounds as resplendent on the track as she looks on the cover art. Christmas Time Is Here is Jody's interpretation of the Peanuts holiday classic - she's always been supremely gifted at reinventing songs (see her exquisite cover of Madonna's Borderline); here there is a sparse, wintry percussion which highlights the stark nature of the season. Alongside that there are chiming keyboards crafting a mesmering backdrop of sound that is as indelible to the narrative of the song as the beautifully sung lyrics. Jody savours every moment with her wistful delivery, bringing nuanced insight to a tale as old as time. It is a treat to hear such a revered singer share her memories through expressive delivery - and the extended instrumental outro helps the listener fill in the blanks with memories from their own ghosts of Christmas past. Haunting yet utterly delightful...
