Waiting Space' (which is an audio & visual project - and the alias of Waterford [Ireland] musician and creator, Chris Falconer).
'Borrowed Memories' (released 03/01/2015) - was the Waiting Space Christmas release, for 2014 accompanied by a video, viewable at: youtu.be/OXgBAJQdkac
The term 'Borrowed Memories' (in this context), refers to the quest to find a happy medium between your own experiences of Christmas, and the overblown promises of Christmases on tv, and in film, and literature. The imagined memories that they can offer can definitely feed the celebrations of the season - but it might also be important not to forget the importance of original experience, and the true happenings with those you love around you. Writing a Christmas song also comes with a certain level of freedom, in that you can be forgiven for being a cheesier lyricist than usual...

'Thank God for whoever planted all the evergreens -
When you're not here, I still have them to see.
The site of smiling faces in the streets -
Bring memories of nights with you next me.
Angels and candles, they need a home too.
This time of year, they find it.
But I...
I always found my home with you.
Cold winter nights are made for you next to me -
with nothing but flashing lights for us to see.
There's rain outside, so we'll borrow memories...
of white mornings from films on the TV.
Angels and candles, they need a home too.
This time of year, they find it.
But I...
I always found my home with you.
Those days.
Those nights.
Those winters - by my side.
Red and green floods the streets.
No need to move - being here with you, is all I could need.
And, with that, a simple truth remains.
With all of these, what use have I for borrowed memories?
Angels and candles, they need a home too.
This time of year, they find it.
But I...
I always found my home with you.'
