Music & Lyrics
Footsteps In The Snow is set on Christmas Eve, with a broken and sad Blanchard watching her ex-boyfriend walk away, leaving footsteps in the snow after he breaks up with her.

This Christmas is a R&B/pop song primarily about being unhappy on Christmas and feeling empty. A few critics had noted that, despite it's dark lyrics, sounds cheerful by it's fun, upbeat production.

Under The Blanket is about being reunited with an ex on Christmas. The song's lyrics are rather provocative but were praised for it.
