After the release of the debut album "Paper Light" by rising pop star Medina. She comes to deliver us one of the best Christmas ballads of the year. Written and Composed by Medina and legendary producer Rick Rubin. Titled "Santa Come and Set Me Free". The track's production mainly consists guitar, piano & drums. Giving it a more natural feeling like most traditional Christmas songs. But unlike most traditional Christmas songs. "Santa Come and Set Me Free" tells about a very depressing Christmas with two lovers who lost every inch of lust and passion towards each other. Leave it to Medina to write a depressing Christmas song, but yet again her "Break-Up" era hasn't ended until we hear the content on her next album in 2016. So if you're single this Christmas or just got out of a shady relationship, this is the song for you.
BACKGROUND: After finishing her responsibility with the reality TV show "Celebrity Big Brother" Medina flew back to her home country Denmark. She began showing interest on recording a Holiday Album in late August and began small sessions in her home studio located in the capital Copenhagen after leaving Big Brother. She recorded four songs to present to the label so they can back her Christmas release and after promising outcomes they accepted and allowed her to continue the production of the album. Shortly after Medina got very ill and all production of the album was put at a complete stop. Medina was very ill through late October and November. She never accumulated the strength to re-start the recording sessions due to her health. Her label in mid November agreed to release a Christmas EP of the four songs she originally recorded and picked the official radio single. Medina's health has gotten better in December and she expressed that she might do some promotion for the EP soon. As the oak wood burns through the fire The snow begins to cover all the windows Trying to spark something back up between us Hopefully the holidays will bring us some hopeAll the snowy nights home alone without you Christmas verses waiting for you to come and sing them The star on the tree is my only hope Shining as the lonely nights go byOnly he knows, only he knows Remind you I was the best gift he has given to you Only he knows, only he knows Even if you don't realize it's the given truthOnly he knows, only he knows I'm hanging on to the last thread that hangs between us Only he knows, only he knows All I wanted was my Christmas miracle to become true tonightWaiting for your steps to echo through the front door Trying not cause arguments between us two A simple "Hi" and you walk to the bedroom Dismissing everything that needs to be toldI'm tired of faking all my smiles And baking things for you to only smell Feeling like I lost my grip on hope I'm wrapping gifts on the couch, aloneOnly he knows, only he knows Remind you I was the best gift he has given to you Only he knows, only he knows Even if you don't realize it's the given truthOnly he knows, only he knows I'm hanging on to the last thread that hangs between us Only he knows, only he knows All I wanted was my Christmas miracle to become true tonightCould it be true? could it be true? There's nothing that will ignite it for one last time Could it be true? could it be true? Santa come and set me freeCome and set me free, Come and set me free Come and set me free, Come and set me free Come and set me free, Come and set me free Come and set me free, Come and set me freeOnly he knows, only he knows I'm hanging on to the last thread that hangs between us Only he knows, only he knows All I wanted was my Christmas miracle to become true tonightCould it be true? could it be true? There's nothing that will ignite it for one last time Could it be true? could it be true? Santa come and set me freeCome and set me free...Sounds like:

Jennifer: I'm actually glad someone decided to stray from the normal, cheery Christmas song and create something as depressing as this tbh. Well done, Medina. I really like it and in a weird way it gets me prepared for Christmas, haha.
OOC: Really nice job on this, ditto on what my character said. I think it's cool to do something different with a holiday track. |

Billy: I hate Christmas music (unless it's from Mariah or Leona), I'm in a very happy relationship so I don't relate to the lyrics and in all honesty I wasn't a huge fan of your past material but this...I don't know, I'm really digging it for some reason. I guess I'm a fan of the bold move you made. Holiday music is usually very cliched with the obvious formula and winter/Christmas references so to put a different spin on it lyrically and sonically was a very daring but wise choice. Good job on the song, Medina! |

Chris: What up medina I'm glad to know you adapted to the outside world so well again after being in the boring house. Still the song. I like it is isn't a typical normal present under the christmas tree. Cause I know a lot of people think hoildays is a joyful thing. You will surprise how much fucked up stuff happens on christmas. Rebel the status quo and keep making different stuff. 3 Satatic south park forest animal out of five |

Layla: Woah, woah, woah why would you do this to my emotions? Like I actually cried this song is so sad but I think I'm addicted if we weren't on tour right now I could just picture me sitting in a dim room by a fire wrapping gifts while crying and drinking hot chocolate like the feels are tooooo real but yeah great job on doing something different and going against the grain for Christmas music I know you've already heard that like 20000000000000000000000000 times but it's so true also you're incredible bYE |

Amy Meyer: This is actually a brilliant Christmas song, it's not all jolly and festive which is a nice change, because Christmas can also bring on a lot of sadness and loneliness for some people and I like that this song can cater to that side of the holidays! Really great work with this song, the lyrics are simple and effective which is what they should be, wonderful! |

OOC: Great work! I'm actually glad to see Medina releasing music even if it's Christmas. These lyrics are very good and like everyone else says, it's a change from the usual type of Christmas songs that come out. I love the artwork too :) |
