2006 Liner Notes: Merry Christmas to all of you, my beloved family and friends,
It’s very exciting for Angela and I to be sharing our very first Christmas together this year. I have made another Christmas album, “Our First Christmas” for you to all enjoy. I had such a great time doing this recording over the last 2 weeks, this time in my new basement studio at our new house.
For this album, I chose to record some hundreds-years-old carols in a bombastic style. Playing these old songs really gave me a blast of energy and proved to me how fresh and exciting an old piece of music can be. I also took the opportunity this year to write two new original Christmas songs, “Our First Christmas” and “Christmastime Again!” Angela sang so beautifully on both. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Joy to the World! I hope you enjoy this music this year and for many years to come.

With love,
Jason

Track Name: Christmastime Again!
It's Christmastime again and all that I can do is sing.
Bright carols in the air and snow is coverin' everything.

Our dreams of better days come true on Christmas day with family and friends by our side.

It's Christmastime again preparing gifts for all our friends.
With love and bows of red and yuletide cheer for us to send.

This Christmas eve is bright, there's sleigh bells up in flight and I'm wrappin' your presents all night.

Bells are ringing, everyone is singing of a love that's bring all the new beginnings in the world as one we praise the shining Son, his rays will light the many skies above.

My Christmas wish to you is ground of white and skies of blue.
Warm cider greets the morn, to stare the Christmas tree adorned.
This BLAST!!! of Christmas cheer, may it last all through the year and echo all far and all near!

Bells are ringing, everyone is singing of a love that's bring all the new beginnings in the world as one we praise the shining Son, his rays will light the many skies above.
Track Name: Our First Christmas
Takin' that old road up through the snow, warmed by the wood stove fireglow.

Our first Christmas together my darling. Tell me it's Christmas my darling.
How I really wished it would come true...
Now I get to spend it all with you.
Year after year we pined, miles away, dreaming of our first Christmas day star ever-gleaming.
Never will a Christmas time be blue, now I get to spend 'em all with you.

Night star so bright, night star so clear, blessings on this, our first year.

I don't need no silver or no gold, just to be with you until I'm grey and old.

Old songs by the tree sung in sweet harmony. My baby and me, this year won't you please tell me it's Christmas my love. Our first Christmas my love.
