This is a song about hearing the Johnny Mathis christmas album again and again!
3 piece power pop with lots of singing!
Bringing Pop back to the people!
Story behind the song
I did an album where I took a Johnny Mathis album from 1967, "Love is Blue", and I wrote new songs using the titles and order from his album. As a tribute I wrote a song (with Mark Smotroff) called "Johnny Mathis"!
Lyrics
It is for me to say, wouldn’t have it any other way
Johnny Mathis, Johnny Mathis, Johnny Mathis, Johnny whoa whoa whoa whoa!
Some voices sound so wrong, like a disease inflicted on a song, not
Johnny Mathis, Johnny Mathis, (not) Johnny Mathis, Johnny whoa whoa whoa whoa!
I know I always will remember, listening in the hallway that December
I tried to sing along, but the voice was just too strong…
If two guitars will play, by the open fire I will say
Johnny Mathis, Johnny Mathis, Johnny Mathis, Johnny whoa whoa whoa whoa!
Some voices sound so wrong, like a disease inflicted on a song, not
Johnny Mathis, Johnny Mathis, (not) Johnny Mathis, Johnny whoa whoa whoa whoa!
I know I always will remember, listening in the hallway that December
I tried to sing along, but the voice was just too strong…
File Under Easy Listening!
File Under Easy Listening!
File Under Easy Listening!
File Under Easy Listening!
(guitar solo)
I know I always will remember, listening in the hallway that December
I tried to sing along, but the voice was just too strong…
File Under Easy Listening!
File Under Easy Listening!
File Under Easy Listening!
File Under Easy Listening!
