The Christmas Song - The Raveonettes
Not the The Christmas Song;
a much hazier and more recent track that reminds me of many reluctant journeys home during the past five years in Waterloo. I've often been dead-eye tired, writing exams or finishing a co-op term, cycling through Waterloo park with its cheesy neon light show, surprised by the little jolt of xmas joy that the snowmen silhouettes always give me: all the trees are on display now/and it's cold now/I don't feel like going home now/I wish that I could stay.
