Christmas Time

I suppose every songwriter writes a Christmas song with their childhood in mind. "Christmas Time" is what I remember about Christmas when I was growing up. Growing up in Denver Colorado I have vivid memories of many a white Christmas. Words & Music by Jerry Corelli

Christmas Song

Christmas Song was one of the first Christmas songs I published. The original music didn't work for me and some phrases and words needed rearranging. So I contacted Earl and he agreed to let me do my thing to the song. Words & Music by Earl Andrew Richards & Jerry Corelli

Bethlehem Child

I love this song's narrative. It's told from the view of one of the wise men and gives a different twist on the birth of Christ. Again, when I first heard the demo for this song I knew I wanted to record it.

Cowboy Christmas

The first time I heard the demo for this song I knew I wanted to record it. Very few songs come to me well written and recorded. I love songs that allow your mind to run a video as the songs progresses. Story telling in a song, as good as in Cowboy Christmas, seems a lost art today. But, Rosalie tells a wonderful story in this unique Christmas song that everyone should hear. Words & Music by Rosalie Glemann

On This Christmas Day

Sometimes inspiration for a song comes from the strangest places at the strangest times. I've been at restaurants and used a paper napkin to write out a song and other times driving down the highway. It was Christmas Eve and I was working as a clean up person for a meat cutting company. My mixture of soap would come out of a large nozzle and when I sprayed it over all of the stainless steal and cutting boards it would cover everything in a white foam.

Out of the blue I sang out, "It's starting to look like that time of the year,.." Being the only one who worked the clean up I immediately shut everything down and went into the break room to write down the words that I just sang. Throughout the evening I continued writing the song, got off work about 3 in the morning and finished the song by 6 in the morning on Christmas day. Words & Music by Jerry Corelli

Peace At Christmas

Some years ago I was surfing the web for Christmas Songs & lyrics when I stumbled upon a company that held lyric contests. One of the songs, or lyrics, that caught my eye was called "Peace At Christmas". As I read the lyrics I could hear how I'd arrange the song and how the music and melody might go with the song. Now that happened in the morning and in the afternoon I always went to the post office to pick up the mail. That same afternoon I picked up the mail and one of the demos in the mail was that same song "Peace At Christmas".

I quickly opened it and put the demo in the player to hear the song I had just read the lyrics for earlier that day. The music, was to say the least, not at all what I had expected. So, I called the writer and asked if she would mind if I re-wrote the music and melody. She had no problem with it and all I can say is that, "It was meant to be."

Happy Birthday Jesus

Like most people who love Christmas songs I have favorites. I can't tell you how much I enjoy the movie "White Christmas" and all the music in it. However, like all great songs, there must be over a hundred recordings of "White Christmas" from over a hundred different artists through the years. I knew I wanted to one day record a Christmas Album but I didn't want to record the standards. I mean let's face it, if you don't produce a better rendition of a classic song then everyone who hears it will compare the hit version to yours and the classic version always wins. Besides I'm a songwriter so what I wanted to do was record original Christmas songs.

"Happy Birthday Jesus" has become a Christmas hit for me. It remains my most downloaded song on Cdbaby and in indie circles it's becoming a classic. Words & Music by Jerry Corelli
