Alexis Strum - I Won't Be Lonely (This Christmas)


39 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!

How lovely is a world with new music from Alexis Strum in it? And how fabulous is the holiday season with festive music from Alexis Strum in it? Very is the emphatic answer to both those questions. Her brand new seasonal song, I Won't Be Lonely (This Christmas) is a rather compelling tale of how Christmas is marketed as a time for lovers and therefore exacerbates every single emotion you might have about being on your own at the most wonderful time of the year. While it is drenched is a peppy guitar, glockenspiel and sleigh bells to give it that Santa approved vibe, there is enough recognisable reality and hope in the lyrics that you actually enjoy yourself by screaming (X-M-A-)YES in  solidarity. Who cares if you are Mariah's only Christmas wish this year when you have this sing-along gem to cathartically resolve all your problems. Should probably be free on the NHS as an endorphin boost for all those who need it. Now let go of those bad habits like they are a bad haircut that won't go out of style (and go buy everyone you know Alexis' new album for Christmas).
