As an early Christmas surprise for fans, rock and roll Hall of Fame band Bon Jovi released a new original holiday song, “Christmas Isn’t Christmas,” on Island Records. Recorded recently in Nashville.
Jon has explained how he wrote the song when his parents were taken ill at Christmas:
“I wrote a song two years ago called Christmas Isn’t Christmas. It was a tough day in the house, my dad and my mom were both taken ill. And I wrote this as a gift to my parents and my children. The gift was Christmas bringing everyone together. And while we weren’t all together, we could only be there in our memories and in our thoughts and in our prayers. When we shot the video and we started conversing about it, we realised there’s also a great, sunny side – Christmas Isn’t Christmas with you, unless you’re here with me. So we can lighten the mood too. I hope you like it as much as we do.”
