On This Christmas Day

Sometimes inspiration for a song comes from the strangest places at the strangest times. I've been at restaurants and used a paper napkin to write out a song and other times driving down the highway. It was Christmas Eve and I was working as a clean up person for a meat cutting company. My mixture of soap would come out of a large nozzle and when I sprayed it over all of the stainless steal and cutting boards it would cover everything in a white foam.

Out of the blue I sang out, "It's starting to look like that time of the year,.." Being the only one who worked the clean up I immediately shut everything down and went into the break room to write down the words that I just sang. Throughout the evening I continued writing the song, got off work about 3 in the morning and finished the song by 6 in the morning on Christmas day. Words & Music by Jerry Corelli
