Nostalgia in Melody: Coquí’s I’ll Still Have Christmas Day Brings the Magic of Childhood Christmas Back
DREAM Records artist Coquí, also known as Samuel Jacob Lopez Jr., ushers in the holiday season with his reflective new single, I’ll Still Have Christmas Day, now available on all digital platforms. This self-produced track takes listeners on a heartfelt journey back to the innocence of childhood Christmases—a time when the holidays were magical, unburdened by the complexities of adult life. Mixing nostalgic charm with a creative blend of vintage big band flair, dub reggae, psychedelic Beatles-inspired elements, and breezy California surf vibes, Coquí crafts a song that feels both timeless and fresh. Expertly mixed and mastered by Jeanmark Rodríguez, the track invites us to pause amidst the hustle of the season, offering a soulful reminder to cherish the joy of family, memories, and simple moments of gratitude.
In Coquí’s own words, the song isn’t about the overt spiritual aspects of Christmas but rather the universal beauty of what the season represents—connection, reflection, and the warmth of shared traditions. With its rich layers and heartfelt lyrics, I’ll Still Have Christmas Day becomes more than just another holiday tune; it’s a deeply personal yet universally relatable piece that evokes a sense of longing and comfort. Whether it’s played in a bustling kitchen, by the glow of twinkling lights, or in a quiet moment of reflection, this track promises to become a cherished part of holiday playlists for years to come—a musical thread weaving listeners’ own memories into the fabric of the season.
