Midnight at the Plaza - Cold December Flight | Blues Rock Christmas (Inspired by Die Hard)
The opening track from the new 6-song EP, Midnight at the Plaza, inspired by the classic movie, Die Hard (1988). "Cold December Flight" is a slow-burn, emotional blues-rock track. It features gritty vocals, overdriven slide guitar tones, and heavy electric guitar work in the tradition of Delta Blues modernized for a cinematic sound. It sets the scene for a difficult holiday homecoming, full of tension and unspoken promises. This is the sound of an honest man landing in Los Angeles, ready to fight for what he lost. Perfect for fans of Alternative Christmas Music, Modern Blues Guitar, Blues Rock Covers, Vaughan-style playing, and Movie-Inspired Soundtracks. LYRICS: COLD DECEMBER FLIGHT Cold air on the window, city lights below, I’m headed where the winter winds cut right through your coat. Haven’t seen your face in a long, long time, Got a heart full of questions, and none of ’em kind. This steel bird’s humming like it knows my mistakes, Every mile I’m drifting, feel the ice start to break. Got a ring on my finger that’s heavy tonight, Got a name in my chest that still burns like a light. I’m on a cold December flight, Chasing down a shadow of the life we left behind. Through the frost and through the fight, I’m hoping there’s a little bit of warmth left in your eyes. ’Cause I’ve been gone too long And I’m not sure if I’m welcome when I touch down tonight. Yeah… this cold December flight. Holiday signs glowing on the terminal floor, But the cheer feels hollow when you’re walking alone. I got pride in my pocket, weighs more than it should, And a suitcase full of promises I never understood. The city’s calling out like it remembers my name, But I’m not the same man that boarded this plane. Got a heart that’s been fighting its own little war, Now I’m landing where the silence hits harder than before. I’m on a cold December flight, Chasing down a shadow of the life we left behind. Through the frost and through the fight, I’m hoping there’s a little bit of warmth left in your eyes. Yeah, I’ve been gone too long, But I’m praying you don’t turn away when I arrive— On this cold December flight. If the snow starts falling, Won’t you hear me calling? If the lights stay low, Baby, let me come home… Let me come home… I’m on a cold December flight, Trying to find forgiveness in a sky that’s frozen white. If there’s a chance tonight, I’ll walk through every shadow just to get us right. Yeah, I’ve been gone too long, But I’m stepping off the runway with an open heart tonight— Off this cold… December… flight #ColdDecemberFlight #MidnightAtThePlaza #DieHardMusic #BluesRock #ChristmasBlues #AlternativeChristmas #NewMusic #DieHardEP #BluesGuitar #electricblues #electricbluesguitar
