Charlie Puth Rings in the Holidays With Single ‘December 25th’

Must read


The singer said he recorded the song “on a whim” while working on his new LP

Charlie Puth has released a new holiday single, “December 25th.” On the ’80s-inspired track, musician recounts missing someone special to him on Christmas Day.

“December 25th is the day I always miss you the most,” Puth sings on the melancholy single. “‘Cause the music and the lights, it reminds me of a night/ that you told me you had to go/ December 25th is the day that always hits me the most/ still got no goodbye/ so I’d rather stay inside/ spending Christmas here alone.” 

“I wrote and recorded ‘December 25’ completely on a whim a few weeks ago in my studio while working on my new album,” Puth said in a statement. “And though it sounds absolutely nothing like anything on the album, I figured why not share it for the holidays. So here you go.”

Earlier this year, Puth spoke with Rolling Stone about his single “Hero” and his surprise when Taylor Swift shouted him out on her album Tortured Poets Department. “My first thought was like, ‘Wow. She said my name,’” Puth said. “She kind of said it like P-O-O-T-H. And I just cried, dude. It was surreal because it’s never good to look back, but I feel like I could have done things a little differently in the past, but it’s all meant to happen now.”

The singer also spoke about his approach to his forthcoming album, noting that he is “producing it in a way where I just hit record, do a couple of takes with the band, and then I don’t write any lyrics down.”

“I just sing the first thing that comes to mind when I’m writing the record and everything is just a little bit more free-flowing,” Puth said. “No Auto-Tune or anything like that. It’s like I’m in my almond-mom era. But it’s definitely not that. It’s lyrically specifically, it’s about true things that happened to me that I’m not broadening out. I’m just saying the exact thing that’s in my brain. This happened exactly how it happened, and this is the color shirt that I was wearing and this is what I was eating. I’m putting that into the verse, kind of like what Taylor does in her music.”
