There Were Angels Out Tonight

Angels Out Tonight

 Here's my Christmas song for this year. It's go a long story behind it - maybe the song, itself tells it well enough, but I'll talk about it, anyway.

This song is a true story: a few weeks ago, me and a friend o' mine were in a pickle. The front end of her car got stuck on one of those curbstone parking place thingies. Long story short, we went to various places, looking to see if anyone had any solutions, and everyone was so nice. I mean, like, way super nice. It's like this little town in the valley was full of all these angels in human form. Everyone tried to help us out. 

Then these two women who knew a thing or two saw us messing around with the car, and one of them knew what to do! Those women got us out of our bind. They were angels. We wanted to buy them a drink at Starbucks, but they said something like pay it forward. 

This song came to me in a dream, and I decided to make it a Christmas song. Y'know, all these people we ran into, especially these 2 women, had angel-y goodness. Angels are very Christmas-y, so there you go.

My voice sounds like poop tonight, but maybe that's okay because I was trying to go for the sound of a bunch of people in a church singing badly.

The lyrics are:

My friend's car got stuck on a curb-stone and we went from place to place
To get some help, that's when we noticed everyone had a smiling face
Everyone we ran into was so sublime, it blew my mind
And they made me think of angels that you see at Christmas time

Me and my friend got into a bad pickle
We prayed that someone would help us a little
Our car got stuck, what bad luck, will somebody
Help us and these women told us we know what you need

There were angels out tonight, there were angels out tonight
They were such such gentle souls

They helped us get the car unstuck so we could go home
Were those women angels in human form? Maybe so

There were angels out tonight, there were angels out tonight
They were such such gentle souls

When we got stuck, we went to some places / And everyone we talked to had grace, yes
Everyone had oodles of kindness / Honestly it blew my mind, yes
How could everyone be so darn gentle? / It blew my mind and made me feel mental
Did I hallucinate this kindness? / I'll say it again – it blew my mind, yes
I do not think it's a coincidence / That this all happened close to Christmas
That we ran into all these angels / In human form, they were the same as those
Angels we heard on high that first Christmas / It felt like Heaven came down and kissed us
When in the parking lot of Starbucks / Those women helped us get unstuck

I'm mystified by the heavenly sight
Of angels who walk on earth in the night

There were angels out tonight, there were angels out tonight
They were such such gentle souls

Here's the alternative player-thingy, in case you want to use it instead of the other one:

Here's, yet, another alternative player thingy cuz I remixed this here song - the rap at the beginning was too quiet in the other mix, and there was one part that had distorto vocals in it.
