The Los Ageless artist says she has always been drawn to holiday songs that blend warmth with a subtle sense of sadness. “My favorite Christmas songs have an underlying sense of melancholy mixed in with the warmth of their familiarity,” she explains. She adds that the song feels especially powerful when sung by someone who sounds alone, noting the lyric “next year all our troubles will be out of sight.” To her, the holiday season becomes a brief refuge after a difficult year and a hopeful look toward the one ahead.
✨ Oh. What. Fun. stars Michelle Pfeiffer, Felicity Jones, Chloe Grace Moretz, Denis Leary and Danielle Brooks, and its full soundtrack is available now.
