Nashville, Tenn. - Nashville singer/songwriter Danielle Cormier has released a holiday-inspired piano ballad titled "This Time Last Year" produced by Adam Lester (Peter Frampton) and co-written with Karlie Bartholomew. Today, the video premieres at Popwrapped.

It's a very personal song as Danielle explains, "Karlie and I had talked about writing a holiday song earlier in the year and then we both suffered tragic losses; her grandfather passed away and then my father passes away about a month later. After that I knew the song had to be about how different the holidays would be without such important people in our lives."

Keeping with the intimate nature of the song, Danielle used personal home movies for the video: "They say that the firsts are always difficult after losing someone, especially the holidays. We wanted to write a holiday song about how everything changes after they are gone. The traditions you once knew are no longer the same. Unfortunately this year, a lot of people will be able to relate to that. This video compiles memories of Christmas’ past with footage from home videos and allows my father’s memory to live on.” 

"The single shares many typical elements of holiday songs: minimalistic piano and strings, lyrics about stockings and snow angels, and even sleigh bells. But unlike the cheery mood of your usual Christmas music, Cormier somberly sings about holidays that 'aren't the same' and 'presents wrapped without your name.' Perhaps the most poignant line is, 'I keep expecting you to walk through the door/Just like every winter before.'" - AudioFemme 

"While 'This Time Last Year' was written as an intimate reflection, it encompasses a larger and more universal tone... evokes that bereaved emotion and makes it palpable and tangible..." - American Songwriter

"This piano ballad track gives us all the feels... Holiday music is best when it is hopeful, while still bringing some melancholy with it to the party. Cormier realizes this and beautifully brings this relationship to life." - Ear To The Ground Music
