Song: “Blame It On the Mistletoe Christmassy 2022” (featuring Lawrence Rothman)
In Their Words: āI wrote the song āBlame It On the Mistletoeā with my good friend Brittney Spencer. We wrote it in the summertime, and we were thinking about holiday romance, holiday hook-ups, cozy warm feelings, and just the possibility of love or like or making that move. Sometimes you need a little instigation like mistletoe ā¦ or a cocktail. This new version features my friend Lawrence Rothman who helped me produce it. Their voice is very magical, and I think youāre going to love it. Also, we added a few more instruments to it to make it more sparkly, more glittery, more Christmassy.ā — Amanda Shires
