a festive whirl of lights and warmth, sparkling like a shop window at dusk

over the top opens with the wide-eyed rush of the season, the kind that hits you the moment the decorations go up and everything starts to glow a little brighter. jacob chacko, a friend of the blog, leans into the joy instead of the stress, shaping a christmas single that feels cheeky, charming, and genuinely full of heart.

based in new milford, he builds this world with a bright, lively band feel. thomas monaco adds an extra lift with his co-vocal presence, and talya gelfand threads warmth through the backing vocals, giving the song that togetherness you only get when multiple voices light up the same moment. the melody bounces with an old-school shine, the vocals feel familiar and cosy, and the whole thing moves like a crowded mall filled with glitter, good moods, and tiny flashes of nostalgia.

this is a seasonal single made to be replayed while you wrap gifts on the floor or carry one too many bags home, a reminder that going a little overboard can be part of the magic. it celebrates the rush, the colour, the slight madness, and the togetherness tucked inside it all.

thank u for making this jacob chacko 🎄
