Though Salsoul records had long been out of print, several were brought back in the mid-'90's. Many of the more recent 'house' music offerings owe more than a passing nod to the recordings of this orchestra.
Sleigh Ride
The Salsoul Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling "Yoo hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, let's go,
Let's look at the show.
Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, it's grand
Just holding your hand.
We're gliding along with a song of a wintery fairy land.
Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we,
We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be.
Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two
Come on it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
The Salsoul Orchestra's festive tune "Sleigh Ride" paints the picture of a perfect winter day filled with joyous sleigh rides and romantic companionship. The lyrics call for a couple to bundle up and set out on a delightful sleigh ride through the snow-filled countryside. The first two lines of the song set the tone with the sound of sleigh bells ringing and jingling, and the singer welcomes his partner to join him on the adventure through a winter wonderland.
The song goes on to describe the beauty of the winter scenery and the pleasure of sharing the ride with someone special. With each jolly "giddy yap," the couple glides along through the snow, taking in the sights and sounds of a winter paradise. They are warm and cozy together, and the experience is like something out of a fairytale. The lyrics encourage them to take their time and enjoy the ride, singing a song or two as they go.
Overall, "Sleigh Ride" is a fun, upbeat song that captures the magic of the winter season, and reminds us of the joy that comes from spending time with loved ones.
