"Not This Year" is a Christmas song written by Aly & AJ. It was featured as the closing track on the album, Acoustic Hearts of Winter. This song was not released as a single and is one of only two songs on the album that are not traditional Christmas songs.
"Not This Year" was one of the only two songs originally written by Aly & AJ with the other being "Greatest Time of Year".
Aly & AJ said in their lyric book that this song was dedicated to their grandmother Carmen who passed away on Christmas Eve a couple years ago.
This song is the alter ego of their single, "Greatest Time of Year". "Greatest Time of Year" is a happy, cheerful, and dancy Christmas song, while "Not This Year" is a sad, reflectful, and expresses what a non-greatest Christmas is like.
