Smokie - Light A Candle (The Christmas Album) (2003)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Originally formed in Yorkshire, England, in 1966, Smokie hit the British pop charts several times during the late '70s with updated psychedelic pop, influenced by the band's stay on Mickie Most's Rak Records as well as the writers of most of the band's hit material, Rak's Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman. Vocalist Chris Norman, guitarist Terry Utley, and bassist Alan Silson had played in the Elizabethans, but formed the band Kindness in 1968, with the addition of drummer Pete Spencer. The quartet recorded many singles during the late '60s and early '70s, but failed to show any chart activity until 1975. That year, signed to Rak Records and billed as Smokey, the band hit number three in the U.K. with "If You Think You Know How to Love Me." After another Top Ten hit, "Don't Play Your Rock 'N Roll to Me," Smokey became Smokie; during 1976, the group scored with three Top 20 hits, including the number-five "Living Next Door to Alice." Smokie hit number five both in 1977 ("It's Your Life") and 1978 ("Oh Carol"), but the band's chart run ended by early 1980, and following 1982's Midnight Delight, they disbanded. Both Spencer and Norman continued to work at Rak during the '80s, writing hits for several groups; they reformed Smokie in 1988, resurfacing with the LP My Heart Is True. Two more albums, All Fired Up and Greatest Hits Live, followed a year later, with the group remaining active throughout the 1990s, issuing new material as well as a number of hits collections...John Bush

Light A Candle

It's here again
It's that time of year
We're so far apart
That it's breaking my heart
Just to know you won't be here
But I won't cry
I didn't ask why

So just light a candle for me
On New Years Eve
All on my own
You're so far away
A year further on
And the feeling's still strong
How I wish you'd wanted to stay
But I'd be strong
Cause it won't be long
So just light a candle for me
On Christmas Eve

And when the bells are ringing
And Christmas is bringing
A magic that fills the air
You'll be a wonderful sight
On a cold christmas night
And I know
I'll be there
with you, with you
Christmas with you

Thinking of you
As I walk through the snow
I remember your kiss
And just how much I miss
Your smile, I won't let go
But I'll be strong
No, it won't be long
So just light a candle for me
On New Years Eve

And when the bells are ringing
And Christmas is bringing
A magic that fills the air
You'll be a wonderful sight
On a cold christmas night
And I know
I'll be there
with you, with you
Christmas with you

But I'll be strong
It won't be long
So just light a candle for me
On Christmas Eve

And when the bells are ringing
And Christmas is bringing
A magic that fills the air
You'll be a wonderful sight
On a cold christmas night
And I know
I'll be there
with you, with you
Christmas with you
With You
