Song information
"Not This Year" is a mid-tempo song about not feeling jolly during the holiday season.
- It's not snow, It's rain coming down
- And the lights are cool,
- But they burn out
- And I can't pull off the cheer
- Not this year
Aly & AJ said in their lyric book that this song was dedicated to their grandmother Carmen who died on Christmas Eve.[1]
This song is the alter ego of their single, "Greatest Time of Year". "Greatest Time of Year" is a happy, cheerful and Christmas song, while "Not This Year" is a sad, reflectful, and expresses what a non-greatest Christmas is like.
