Christmas Again - DANA
Irish pop icon and Ireland’s first Eurovision winner, DANA, had her first festive chart topper back in 1975 with the release of the classic holiday staple It’s Gonna be a Cold, Cold Christmas. Now she’s back almost 50 years later with her second Christmas single Christmas Again. “This song originated during the Covid era and it relates to loved ones who have to be apart for Christmas, but the next time they can be together, it will be just as joyful...it’ll be Christmas Again”.
An artist who really has ventured into “all kinds of everything”, brings us a track that harks back to the big sounds of the ’60s and ’70s, taking inspiration from The Ronettes, Darlene Love, The Beach Boys and more. “We loved that Phil Spektor ‘Wall of Sound’, where you’ve got this enormous sound of musical instruments and then the voices floating on top. It gives you the feeling that you’re in the room”.
