Come home to the music of Christmas with Camella

Published Nov 23, 2021 01:30 pm

Music has always been part of every special occasion that Filipinos celebrate. A good feast is never complete without the perfect tune to go with it. With music, each moment we spend with our loved ones becomes unforgettable and meaningful. 

This Yuletide season, Camella is gifting the magic of music to every Filipino with a new holiday anthem that would surely fill homes with love, joy, and warmth. The song, “Coming Home on Christmas,” is composed and sung by one of today’s fast-rising and prolific artists under Star Music, SAB.

As a young and promising singer-songwriter, she is best known for creating songs with themes that echo the thoughts, emotions, and experiences of many of her listeners. Through her knack for translating the stories she sees around her into affecting music scores, SAB has pieced together this upbeat, uplifting, and deeply moving song. “Coming Home on Christmas” speaks about the rewarding and incomparable feeling of coming home to the things we miss most and the people we love dearest. Its lyrics are filled with imagery that would take the listeners back to their most significant Christmas memories.

Indeed, nostalgia is a welcome feeling for most people these days. Looking back at the good ol’ times eases our anxiety and gives weary hearts a much-needed respite even for just a brief period. It has been incredibly hard for people to put important celebrations and milestones on hold and go through remarkable life events without the company of our loved ones.

As the whole world begins to re-open, families are looking forward to recreating those precious moments and making up for lost time by spending the holidays together, at long last. The hope that one day soon they will be reunited with their families continues to build within the hearts of everyone, and people will go through great lengths just to make this a reality. These are the powerful scenes and stirring emotions that the song beautifully strings together.

With its engaging and relatable story, catchy melody, and vivid lyrics, “Coming Home on Christmas” has the makings of a holiday standard that will be played many times over by Filipinos across the world for years to come.

The song’s key message of being home with the people you love most resonates with what Camella stands for.
