You look so happy to be singing!! I love it!! The parts are perfect, the colors are neat, I love this song, and you are HAPPY to be singing (many people have a hard time shwing that for some reason) ; )
Even though I have been a "sub" for a long time this popped up on my must see advisory from YT. I'm glad I did...somehow I missed seeing it half a year ago.
BRAVO! An awesome exposé of your talents and natural gift. You have left me feeling lesser in the presents of your better. Thank you for sharing.
Very excellent job here, wow!!!! Very nice to listen to (it doesn't have to be Christmas..hahaha) and entertaining watching it. Perfect picture and audio quality. Keep on going making video's on YouTube!
We have an old recording of Jim Reeves singing this song recorded in '62 or '63... I've always like the song... this arrangement is wonderful... as is your singing. :-) Thanks!
Well I am a Christian and have never heard this song before now, but I really enjoyed it! I'd be perfectly fine hearing you do more "Christian" songs---good music is always appreciated!
Lots, actually. "White Christmas," "Silver Bells," almost any Santa song, "The Christmas Song" (aka "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire"), etc. etc. etc.
@FineyLeee It's sort of difficult to compose a song about Christmas without it being Christian at heart (about Jesus Christ) since the entire point the holiday (originally at least) is obviously to celebrate his birth.
@diabeticderek actually the origination of the holiday that the catholic church coopted was the celebration of the winter solstice. The birth of Christ actually happened in the spring, probably sometime around April. The roman catholics changed the celebration of the winter solstice to celebrate Christ's birth because they were no longer "pagan" and could not celebrate "pagan holidays". The change to 'the mass of christ' was just one of convenience so they could continue celebrating december
@YaoiVixenBoi Agreed. Christ was born in April when shepherds & their flocks would have been out in the fields as opposed to the cold winters when they were much less likely to do so. And like any other birthday, when it is celebrated is not as important as what is being celebrated. Let me rephrase my previous comment: It's sort of difficult to compose a song about Christmas w/out it being Christian at heart (about Jesus Christ) since the entire point of the holiday is to celebrate His birth.

Yeah one of the most important things about a singer isn't his voice box, its his EAR.
Simon has a great ear. Probably the best compliment I can give someone.
