Lyrics for Big Little Lions' "That Time of Year": It's that time of year When all the bells are ringing Sunshine and snow Eyes are aglow Hearts filled with Christmas cheer It's that time again With all the children singing Happiness, joy For each girl and boy Wonder with every year Sleigh bells ring While angels sing Oh what joy The yuletide brings Family and friends Time that we spent Under the mistletoe Sleigh bells ring While angels sing Oh what joy The yuletide brings It's that time of year (It's that time of year) When all the bells are ringing Happiness, joy For each girl and boy Hearts filled with Christmas cheer Happiness, joy For each girl and boy Hearts filled with Christmas cheer It's that time of year

Lyrics for Big Little Lions' "Bring the Snow": Our eyes light up, December is here Get excited like we do every year Please bring us that one souvenir We don't get in winter It's always warm here, it doesn't feel right BBQ, beach and the sun shining bright I'd like a year where the vista is white We don't get that at winter So bring the weather Bring the frost to put on a show Bring the weather Bring the ice, bring the cold Bring the snow, bring the snow I shouldn't complain, but I know that I do So please bring all of that winter with you Like all the cards I've held on to We don't get that in winter So bring the weather Bring the frost to put on a show Bring the weather Bring the ice, bring the cold Bring the snow, bring the snow Bring the snow Maybe this year I'll get to go On an adventure out in the cold To a place where I feel at home I want that this winter Bring the weather Bring the frost to put on a show Bring the weather Bring the ice and please bring the cold Bring the weather Bring the frost to put on a show Bring the weather Bring the ice, bring the cold Bring the snow, bring the snow Bring the snow, bring the snow Bring the snow Bring the snow Bring the snow Bring the snow

Light It Up 03:48
Lyrics for Big Little Lions' "Light It Up": I know that you're there Anticipating Poignantly aware I may not find my way back in time But I'm trying Oh I'm trying Unpack all the stars Decorate the windows It may feel I'm too far I can see it all in my head Getting nearer Light it up So I can find my way home Light it up We won't spend Christmas alone I'm gonna wake up in your arms I'm gonna celebrate this day with you I'm so close now Almost there Light it up So I can find my way home Light it up We won't spend Christmas alone Peace and love and joy All surround me Through the fire-lit door Found my way back to you Light it up Ahh Light it up Now I can find my way home Light it up We won't spend Christmas alone Light it up Light it up Light it up

about

It's that time of year: Happiness, joy, sleigh bells, sunshine and snow. With a Charlie Brown's Christmas vibe, folk-pop duo Big Little Lions release three holiday tracks that celebrate the season in unique and memorable ways.

"That Time of Year" brings a light piano lounge aesthetic to the season of Christmas cheer. On "Bring the Snow" the JUNO winning duo empathize with those that never see snow, and long to have a winter wonderland away from the beach. "Light It Up" closes out the EP as the pair – who work thousands of kilometres apart (Helen Austin in BC, Canada and Paul Otten in Ohio, USA) – imagine the promise of families, friends and lovers being together this holiday, even if they're currently apart.

Big Little Lions' music is regularly featured in commercials, TV shows and movies, they were nominated for their seventh Canadian Folk Music Award this year, and were chosen as an official showcase artists at 2022's Folk Alliance International. In the months since the lifting of health protections, they've toured BC, Ontario, Ohio and more.

At this time of year, these songs bring happiness and joy, to each girl, boy and everyone else.

For fans of Charlie Brown, Vince Guraldi Trio, Christmas, Sufjan Stevens, Of Monsters and Men, RIVVRS

Big Little Lions is the ferocious songwriting duo of Helen Austin and Paul Otten.

“The duo's sound mixes the new school folk of Mumford and Sons with a dance rhythm that keeps the music sounding light and upbeat. It also doesn't hurt that their songs are very catchy and aided by how well Austin and Otten's voices complement each other.” - Examiner.com ... more
