X-MAS Autobahn

[elwoodblues1969]

It's a bit early in the season for Christmas tune,but when inspiration strikes,I'm on the scene!
I think this will be the last Autobahn tune that I will do this year,as this seasonal version wraps things up accordingly.

This song was designed to encompass the joy of shopping in the yuletide season,as well as depicting the frantic frustration of holiday traffic in potentially hazardous winter conditions,but yet it is all manages to be enjoyable overall,due to the beauty of the snow-laden landscape.

I hope this song manages to stir up a smattering of X-Mas spirit in all who listen.

OK, fess up!
... You've got a team of session writers in your closet haven't you

I'm really pleased you managed to get the seasonal theme without getting cheesy.  I also like the overall A-B-C-B-A idea. It works well.

Another twist on the theme, and it works! The intro/finishing segments are very reminiscent of Edgar Winter's White Trash - rare air indeed

yeah, very prolific 

This is as good as it gets.
I like the melody so much, and I agree with Folderol on the structure and the un-cheesiness
Well done

Cheers

Will,

..I guess it's just a result of having entirely too much free time on my hands.
Actually,the idea of doing a X-mas Autobahn had been festering in my head for a while,so I decided to sit down & make a go at it yesterday...and for some reason ,it all panned out.
I'm so very happy that you enjoyed my X-Mas piece...it makes my year-thank you kindly!

Oren,

Edgar Winter's White Trash?? ...I'll have to Google that one!

Again,a very kind review that is the cherry-on-top-of-the-cake of my year-thanks!

L.R.,

Yet again,a wonderfully nice review of my piece & I am overwhelmed...a great way to end the year-thanks a mint!

I'm more and more coming to the conclusion that when you think you want to do a particular thing, your brain gets on with it but doesn't bother to tell you. The longer you wait before settling down to the task the more you mind has already sorted out!

Will,

A very interesting perspective with regard to my brain....cool!
