I'd have to say, for me, as a child, my favorite memories were always centered around Christmas time.

We never really had any kind of a Christmas. This is one part where my memory fails me completely.

It is always weird to be in the studio working on Christmas music in June and July, so we decorated the entire studio, we really did.

I was one of those goofy kids whose year narrowed down to focus on Christmas from about September on.

We should try to hold on to the Christmas spirit, not just one day a year, but all 365.
