4. Old Mister Winter (Here Comes The Sunshine)



Track 4:
Old Mister Winter (Here Comes The Sunshine)
The Orange Effect

The Orange Effect is a new band out of Orange County featuring Blake Flattley and James Carrol alongside solo Winter Is On My Head contributors Matt Preston and Tim Bauer (me). Old Mister Winter is the first song we recorded and the first song we wrote together. Read Blake's insights as to the meaning behind the lyrics below:

"At Christmas time we often remember loved ones that have been lost and think back fondly on their memories. 'Old Mister Winter' is the story of a man, who after having progressed through the seasons of life is now watching that life fade away. Whereas death is normally a sad, terminating event, this is a story of love bringing warmth to the heart of a cold man like sun rising on freshly fallen snow."
-Blake Flattley, The Orange Effect

The Orange Effect is currently working on their first album, keep up to date at their website.

There is some real depth to this song. If y'all don't mind I might blog on it and post some links. I've been mulling on it for a few days now and it is shaping some of my recent spiritual journey. Kudos guys.
