Ashanti Shequoiya Douglas(born October 13, 1980 in Glen Cove, New York), professionally known as Ashanti, is a Grammy Award-winning American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, model, and fashion designer who rose to fame in the early 2000s. She is most famous for her eponymous debut album Ashanti which featured the hit song "Foolish", and sold 503,000 copies (Gold) in its first week on release in the USA in April 2002, a record breaking feat. In the same week, she became the first female performer to simultaneously hold the top two places on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart with "Foolish", and "What's Luv" (with Fat Joe). She broke records again by having three Top Ten songs (Foolish, What's Luv, & Always on Time (with Ja Rule)) on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in the same week. Ironically, Ashanti wrote and sang background on the song "Ain't It Funny" sung by Jennifer Lopez which was also in the top 10 charts at the same time as "Foolish", "Always on Time" (with Ja Rule) and "What's Luv" (with Fat Joe).

Time Of Year Lyrics

Ashanti

Christmas is the time of year
That we become as one
Tears of joy
Heart filled with love
Cause Christmas time has begun

There is nowhere else I would rather be
My family's here with me
Even though some of them are watching from above
I feel their love for me

Christmas is the time of year
You give your very last
Just to see that smiling face on someone that you love

And there is nowhere else I would rather be
My family's here with me
Even though some of them are watching from above
I feel their love for me

Christmas is the time of year
We want our loved ones to be here with us
And when we know they're far away
We try to make it so they're here to stay

Cause there is nowhere else I would rather be
My family's here with me
Even though some of them are watching from above
I feel their love for me

Christmas is the time of year
When lovers hold each other tight
From one kiss that let you know
We're glad to be together on this night

And there is nowhere else I would rather be
My family's here with me
Even though some of them are watching from above
I feel their love for me

Merry Christmas!
