Every year the bells ring through the usually muddy early winter and prepare for the most contemplative Christmas possible. As a society, we carry the cliché of reflecting and pausing like a carrot in front of our noses, but those who deal with reality experience the holidays largely differently. Last appointments, work stress before vacation, university exams, overconsumption to give gifts to friends, family, close and distant acquaintances, alcohol-fueled Christmas parties and open arguments at the family dinner table that finally break out after a year of gorging after the third shot of eggnog . In short – it’s complicated, but people don’t like to admit it. Germany’s “Soul Queen” Sarah Connor, who has always been known for a very direct approach to everyday issues, does not turn her Christmas heart into a murder pit and sings about reality with wit and charm.
