Winter Wonderland by Steve Taylor.
For the geographically literate among you, you will know that New Zealand is in the southern hemisphere, which means that it is currently summer.
This makes Christmas odd. You see all the nice big American inspired Christmas songs seem to mention snow. (I'm not even going to mention the plethera of winter scene Christmas Cards)
Today it is a rather humid day and quiet warm with it. Not a snowflake in sight.
There are some specific NZ Christmas songs such as Down Under Santa Got a Sun Tan, Te ara nui and We want to wish you a Maori Christmas. But as far as great memorable anthems go they don't just cut it.
So here we are wearing shorts and t-shirts, putting zinc cream on our nose, tossing another sausage on the BBQ and singing "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas"
Just odd.
So in light of that todays song is Winter Wonderland.
Not just any version of Winter Wonderland though - it is Steve Taylors matiachi version.
No need to post the lyrics today.
Enjoy.
