| Ronan's going to release a Christmas album next month. As with his previous album, it mostly comprises covers, so I doubt Gregg is involved, but I couldn't find songwriting credits for the two original songs on it, yet. I'd say it's rather unlikely, though. |

A Christmas song from someone raised as a "Jehovah's Witness"? They already did it..."I'm Gettin' Nothing For Christmas"
My kids grew up with a JW neighbor friend, its quite a racket! Selective holiday season. We used to sneak the kid birthday parties because the parents wouldn't have one for him and get mad if he knew he was celebrating his birthday. So the kid would just tell his parents he was going over our house to hang with our kids and then we'd invite other friends of theirs over and give the kid a birthday party.
The JW Christmas thing is precious though..they don't put up any decorations because they aren't allowed to celebrate. But invite them over to see yours and they come over. They look @ everyone else's decorations, they don't need to put them up.
They do no Christmas shopping because they're JW's but they won't refuse a gift from you because that would be rude. They won't buy any food or have an event but they'll come to yours.
So pretty much what it is basically is Christmas on their own terms without any of the work or stress and usually get something out of it. I used to tell the kid during the Christmas season after stressing out another season of Italian Christmas festivities and fighting, "JW's, you got the right idea!"

Cool. Too bad he's doing cover albums. He actually needs to try to do something more original for himself. Perhaps write more songs with Gregg or start writing himself

From what I understand, it's more a matter of releasing them than of writing them.

Start? Ronan has actually written more Ronan Keating songs than Gregg did. |

Thanks Fritz. I'm sorry I think we had a misunderstanding. I mean he needs to start again writing more songs. This will be his 2nd cover album. What's going on? Is he just going to keep doing cover albums? .(
