Lou Reed – Xmas In February Lyrics 16 years ago
I can't believe no one has commented on this song already. Great song. I think I have a hunch as to what the title refers to also; today in my English class, we were looking at pictures that convey emotional response, and one was of a soldier in Vietnam, who had the months he would be there listed, and crossed off, all except the last one; February. I'm not sure if February was a common time for guys to come home from Vietnam, or if this song is a reference to the photo, but I think "Christmas in February" would pretty clearly be coming home from 'Nam, and the rest of the song is obviously about Vietnam.
