You are singing the verses as I remember a wonderful man sung it in his Church choir - he was interoffice messenger first job I ever had - So that when James Baldwin wrote his book with same name I had song, bought the book immediately! Thanks!

Forgot to comment on this one #999. This song was on my Christmas song list but Christmas got here too darn fast.

I hope you don't stop all together at 1001. Looking forward to see what 1000 and 1001 are! What a fine song for 999.

[raymondcrooke]

I'm sure I'll continue to out up a song occasionally - if I can think of any I haven't done yet. : -)

[raymondcrooke]

Out up? Sorry, That should be "put up"!

[agrlfmtx]

ONE MORE TO GO!!!! I will be here tomorrow to experience the BIG DAY!!! What an inspiration you are! t:)

[raymondcrooke]

Thank you. My target is 1001, so I have TWO more to go. But #1000 is a special one.

[WilliamCerf]

Oh, my gosh!! How gorgeous!! You have a beautiful voice Raymond. I also love the way you really got into the swing of the song. I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas.

[raymondcrooke]

Thanks for your kind words. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Well, all I can say is, number 1000 had better be DAMN good. Or else.

It's really my only song for this year that celebrates Christmas as I already have a lot of Christmas songs from the last couple of years (on a playlist).

[banjodano]

fine performance Raymond only 2 left.Even though you are past your target time, you have done a lot of traveling and so, this is still a great achievement to you

[raymondcrooke]

Yes, I'm quite happy to rationalize away those missing days, Dan. Better late than never!
