1.	No Saints Around 03:44	lyrics	buy track
You lie upon the snow Dreaming 'bout something else Relying on the cold With a secret you won't tell The seasons come and go And winter's no exception You're searching high and low You're trying to keep me guessing Constellations falling down I don't fear them now The sky is dancing to the sounds I hear, so bright and cheerful now Crystalized and out of bounds A feeling crossing over town The core of kindness can be found With no saints around You lie upon the snow They called for us long ago Relying on the cold But nobody had to know The seasons come and go Soon we'll find our way home You're searching high and low For what, I know I'll never know Constellations falling down I don't fear them now The sky is dancing to the sounds I hear, so bright and cheerful now Crystalized and out of bounds A feeling crossing over town The core of kindness can be found With no saints around Constellations falling down I don't fear them now The sky is dancing to the sounds I hear, so bright and cheerful now Crystalized and out of bounds A feeling crossing over town The core of kindness can be found With no saints around Mmm With no saints around Mmm
2.	Something You Like 02:53	lyrics	buy track
Winter's knocking at my door Now it's me that you're waiting for All my friends are out of town Now that all my family's around But there's a nagging little feeling there's Something I should pay more attention to A nagging little feeling, oh wait That's right, I need a gift for you... No I can't read Your mind I just hope This will be Something you like Ah... There's not a silent night to be found When the lights are on downtown I push through the buzzing, busy crowd Cloudy mind, I'm full of doubts It's silly, I know I must look like a fool I know I look like I don't got a clue But I can't read Your mind I just hope This will be Something you like Ah... Oh, oh, I know I'm a bit out of touch But I just can't stress this enough Cuz I hope This will be Something you like Ah... Am I overthinking this? Is it really so hit or miss? Mmm, I won't risk it I won't risk it No, I can't read Your mind I just hope This will be Something you like Ah... Oh, oh, I know I'm a bit out of touch But I just can't stress this enough Cuz I hope This will be Something you like Ah... Something you like Something you like
3.	Tell Me (What I Already Know) 03:33	lyrics	buy track
Hold me close In the light of the fireplace We defy all the coldest space Gentle eyes and a warm embrace Leaving a gift on my lips, and my face Glad to stay inside our home Safe and tucked away from the snow Candlelight, our room's aglow Now, tell me what I already know Tell me what I already know Oh, tell me what I already know Hold my hand as we dance around on our bare feet Don't mind if you stumble and fall, just be carefree Cuz who needs mistletoe when you've already got me? Ooh, baby... Glad to stay inside our home Safe and tucked away from the snow Candlelight, our room's aglow Now, tell me what I already know Tell me what I already know Oh, tell me what I already know Tell me what I already know Oh, tell me what I already know Glad to stay inside our home Safe and tucked away from the snow Candlelight, our room's aglow Now, tell me what I already know Tell me what I already know Oh, tell me what I already know Tell me what I already know Oh, tell me what I already know Tell me what I already know Tell me what I already know Tell me, tell me... Tell me, tell me... Tell me what I already know...
4.	Magic of the Eve 03:53	lyrics	buy track
Mama said, bundle up Don't just stay in bed Santa's sled won't be down For another day or two, but it's Not much colder than 55 No such chances for snow or ice And nothing's quite like a sunset With golden leaves midair For once it's fine Just take your time to stare I feel alive With the magic of the eve All the feelings deep inside Purified, I set them free And I feel alive With my friends and fam around me At this moment, every year, we'll be Bundled up and happy around the tree Until next year And the next year Then the next year Papa said, turn the porch lights on I know you wanna see Papa said, it was worth the time We spent as family Not much colder than 45 No such chances for snow or ice Hot chocolate memories And marshmallow candy dreams A moment's rest A breath of sweet relief I feel alive With the magic of the eve All the feelings deep inside Purified, I set them free And I feel alive With my friends and fam around me At this moment, every year, we'll be Bundled up and happy around the tree Until next year And the next year Then the next year And the next year And the next year The next year Mama said, it's okay If you stay in bed

about

A special Christmas EP that I was bribed / commissioned to write back in late 2020.
I never planned on writing Christmas music of any kind, so I definitely had to go my way here. I think it came out well!

715
by Circus-P

Circus's "715" is an excellent evolution of his sound and style since the "Lucid" days. I'm extremely proud to be part of it (on "Patches", "Castaway" remix), and thoroughly enjoy the entire album. nostraightanswer

Morphosis (Dawn)
by Meltberry

Melt came into my orbit by covering a song I recorded for Circus-P. Since then, her own sound has become something quite special, and has made herself a mainstay of the English VOCALOID scene. nostraightanswer

CUPCAKE -EP
by Circus-P

supported by 7 fans who also own “No Saints Around”

I have the physical version of Lucid but I knew I had to get the Cupcake EP too!! CircusP has really come on in recent years but his first albums still have such a charm to them. Super catchy, with a wide range of VOCALOIDS all tuned to perfection! Georgie
