Charlie Puth celebrates the holidays with his mournful single “December 25th”

Charlie Puth has released a new song titled “December 25.” In the ’80s-inspired track, the musician recounts missing someone special to him on Christmas Day.

Booth sings in the sad single: “December 25th is the day I miss you the most,” he sings. “Cause the music and the lights remind me of a night / You told me you had to go / December 25th is the day that always catches my eye / I haven’t had a goodbye yet / So I’d rather stay inside / Spending Christmas here alone.”

Booth said in a statement: “I wrote and recorded December 25th in its entirety a few weeks ago in my studio while working on my new album,” Puth said in a statement. “And even though it doesn’t sound like anything on the album at all, I got to thinking about why I didn’t share it for the holidays. So here it is.”

Earlier this year, Booth spoke with Rolling Stone on his single “Hero” and his surprise when Taylor Swift yelled at him on her album Tortured Poets section. “My first thought was like, ‘Wow. She said my name,” Booth said. “She kind of said it like POOTH. And I just cried, dude. It was surreal because it’s never good to look back, but I feel like I could have done things a little bit differently in the past, but it was all meant to happen now.

The singer also talked about his approach to his upcoming album, noting that he’s “producing it in a way where I just record, do some takes with the band, and then don’t write any lyrics.”

Puth said: “I just sing the first thing that comes to my mind when I write the record and everything flows a little bit more freely,” he said. “There’s no auto-tuning or anything like that. It’s like I’m in the era of my almond-shaped mom. But it’s definitely not like that. It’s specifically lyrical, and it’s about real things that have happened to me that I’m not expanding. I just say exactly the thing that’s in my mind. This happened exactly as it happened, this is the colorful shirt I was wearing and this is what I was eating. I’m putting that into the poetry, like Taylor does in her music.
