Dan + Shay continue to spread Christmas cheer with the release of their second-ever original holiday track “Christmas Isn’t Christmas”!
Country music duo Dan + Shay have released the official music video for their original holiday song “Christmas Isn’t Christmas”! Shot in Nashville and directed by longtime collaborator Patrick Tracy, the clip finds the duo in a beautiful snow-covered setting for a song inspired by their families.
“This song is very close to our hearts,” said the duo on their socials. “It was inspired by our families, and all the loved ones in our lives that make the holiday season special. This year has been tough on us all, and not being able to connect with others (especially our fans) in person has really taken an emotional toll. But, out of darkness always comes light, and we feel music has a magical way of bringing us together, even when we are far apart.”
Every city street
Would be celebrating
All the evergreens
Would be decorated
And there’d still be a million lights
There’d still be mistletoe
But it wouldn’t feel the same
‘Cause all I know is
Christmas isn’t Christmas if it’s not with you
Red and green and silver bells would all be blue
All the presents are just boxes with no one to give them to
‘Cause Christmas isn’t Christmas if it’s not with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
It’d be just a day at the end of December
And a lonely night if you and I weren’t together
And those songs wouldn’t sound the same
Home wouldn’t feel like home
I’m thankful you’re here tonight
‘Cause all I know is
Christmas isn’t Christmas if it’s not with you
Red and green and silver bells would all be blue
All the presents are just boxes with no one to give them to
‘Cause Christmas isn’t Christmas if it’s not with you
With you holding me close
Looking out the window
While we watch the snow come down
Oh, it’s true, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Christmas isn’t Christmas if it’s not with you
Red and green and silver bells would all be blue
All the presents are just boxes with no one to give them to
Oh ’cause Christmas isn’t Christmas if it’s not with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
If it’s not with you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
