“I Believe in Christmas” is about the tension between being a cynical adult who thinks Christmas is overblown, and yet still seeing Christmas through the wondrous eyes of a kid.

The song was inspired, like all of Corvair’s Christmas songs so far, by Heather’s hometown of Omaha, the magical contrast of the bleakness and cold with the abundance of old-school Christmas decorations.

"I Believe in Christmas" is also Corvair’s playful counterpoint to The Sonics’ “Don’t Believe in Christmas,” a favorite Christmas song that Brian grew up listening to.

This is the duo’s third holiday song in three years, after last year’s “Under The Tree” and 2020’s “Flannel Pajamas,” currently featured on the double Christmas album "24" on the notable UK indie pop label wiaiwya Records.

On “I Believe in Christmas,” Naubert wrote most of the music and played all of the instruments. Larimer takes the vocal lead and created the story, melody, and lyrics.
