This is one of my favorite Christmas songs!! I have never heard this longer version however. You got it right when you mentioned my dear friend Forest Hairston, who co-wrote this masterpiece! I was so honored that he wrote a birthday poem and song for me! Thank you for posting the extended version!
One of my favorite Christmas songs!! It reminds me of how Christmas used to be just about being around family and not so much about gifts! I miss those days!!
To Hear The Laughter of Children Playing In The Snow, To Kiss My Baby Under the Mistletoe...That is something to come home for Christmas or any other time! Listening to Marvin Gaye's Silky Tone is something of wonder to me now as it has been since I was a little girl listening to my parents albums - Great Memories :-)
I have this song on REPEAT and often play it in summer. I got an email and text from a friend, who wanted to send off a song in dedication to the troops that can't come home this week. Marvin Gaye came to mind. Gonna share this link. THANKS!!
Marvin can put his voice on anything....because he is impeccable.....R.I.P
