about

All proceeds from this release will be going to the charity War Child.

They work tirelessly to protect, educate and stand up for the rights of children living through conflict and go out to the hardest to reach places, to support those who are hardest hit. They aim to be there for the children who need their help the most, and will never give up fighting for the welfare of children living through the horrors of war.

This song is a prequel to my original single Christmas '84 and takes as its subject The Christmas Truce of 1914. I like so many long for a world where we unite, find peace and live in harmony. A world where we fight only to protect our planet, and the survival of all who live on it, and not one of needless conflict, suffering and pain.

lyrics

Christmas 1914 on the Western Front
Just a young man shivering in the cold
I remember when we heard the gun fire cease
Soldiers singing carols in the mud

Well I can still recall as the white flags flew
Sharing our tobacco songs and wine
Well it’s a little break from hell as if the angels fell
And gave us peace on Earth just one last time

So lift me up
On angel wings
I want to fly
Darkest winter’s night
Above fields of dreams
Christmas skies

That day seemed like a dream as hatred turned to love
And No Man’s Land became our football ground
The barb wire and the blood, the bodies in the mud
Our sweet hearts and our families far away

So lift me up
On angel wings
I want to fly
Darkest winter’s night
Above fields of dreams
Over Christmas skies

So lift me up
On angel wings
I want to fly
Darkest winter’s night
Above fields of dreams
Over Christmas skies

So can you hear
The holy choir
Of angels sing
Cross the Darkest night
All those city lights
The church bells ring

Russell Nash came into my music collection with an unexpected Fury, releasing his debut album around the same time as mine. After hearing his creative and masterful drum progressions, I immediately knew i needed to step up my work. Great work and a must for 2022. Alex Lightspeed

Nailed it… again! Nash brings us another rubber burning, retro infused ride. Very reminiscent of the classic arcade driving games. The tempo, composition and variation in these tracks is brilliant. This is how it’s done! RoccoDestro
