"Christmas From O'Hare" is about the importance of family at Christmas. Our protagonist is stuck in an airport bar as the planes have been grounded due to the weather. Sister is already a no-show, having her own family to spend Christmas with. So, perhaps with a little liquid courage and a lot of longing for home, he says that he can drive all night and make it home for Christmas Eve. To me, the interesting question is whether he actually intends to do that or if he's just thinking it. I get the impression its the latter. And chances are he shouldn't be driving anyway. But you understand the emotions and that's the root of the thing.
I'm becoming a King Cardinal fan and I certainly hope we get to hear more Christmas music from them next year. This one is free via Noisetrade. |
