Toronto-based Nigerian-Canadian singer-songwriter Rosabell has just the sound to set the mood for snug winter evenings with her brand new holiday track, “What I Wish For.” As this season of love, joy, and togetherness unfolds, this warm track comes in like a soft snowfall, tender, beautiful, and full of moving emotion.
Rosabell lead us through a holiday season, and she creates a vivid sense of nostalgia with gentle yet powerful vocals, capturing the romance, warmth, and special moments spent with loved ones. The lyrics, as soothing as a hot drink of cocoa, speak to the heartache of wanting to be with someone over the holidays. Whether a romantic partner or a dear friend, “What I Wish For” taps into our universal wish to celebrate the magic of Christmas with those who mean the most to us.
Set against an enchanting melody, the song captures a classic holiday sentiment with modern production, creating an instant seasonal fan favorite. The subtle references to mistletoe traditions and the glimmering instrumentals conjure a sense of nostalgia while remaining fresh and contemporary. Rosabell’s soothing vocals slide around the melody like a snug winter scarf, and the winning song is just the right accompaniment for fireside ruminations or celebratory get-togethers.
At its heart, “What I Wish For” is a reminder to slow down and appreciate some of the simple pleasures that make the season special with love, connection, and the time together that creates memories lasting long after the tree takes its place on the curb. It’s a reminder that, for all the shine and rush of the season, what we celebrate is community.
