Bob,
You have now written TWO of the best NEW Christmas songs I have heard in two decades.
This (and the other - "Songs Of Angels") should get recorded - and become annual classics. And make you much money for all your years to come.
Nice production. Excellent vocal - (really sells it!).
Merry Christmas.

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Same to you. Very good Christmas tune. Well delivered vocally, good easy listening chord changes with a genuine Christmas Holiday season vocal melody. Personally, and this is NOT a criticism, I was expecting to hear an orchestral arranged middle eight. (sweet, but not shrill string section?) Not a terribly busy section but just revisiting the sweet sounding vocal verse melody. I don't think it would make the song overdone or too long. This is very good tune Bob and stands quite well on it's own....I like it very much. Carry on....

Wayne,
I know this could've used an orchestral middle eight, but this was just a demo, so I kept it sparse. Thanks for listening and the nice comments. Merry Christmas, and Semper Fi!

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Bob, The same to you! I really enjoyed the song as a whole but especially the vocals. I loved the warmth and yet slightly melancholy feel to it. All the best, Jez

Regards, Bob Got it.... Did I mention that my comment wasn't a criticism? Should you update the tune do call it to our attention. Sorry it got 'rejected'....I'm sure I'd experience a lot of it if I submitted my drivel to a publisher. Thanks for responding. A good weekend to all....

Bob,
Your vocal really shines on this and the simple message and uplifting melody are just right. I suppose a string arrangement might add something, but the backing & your use of the synth & loops works very well as is. A thumbs down for the grinch who didn`t see the mistletoe hanging over your fine song!

Hello, Bob
Very beautiful and very pop Christmas tune like "Last Christmas" of Wham! Loved the melody and vocal very much. I have loved American Christmas songs very much from my childfood.
Merry Christmas to you from Japan.

I love the complete sound of this mix. I just had a desire for eggnog. This song is one of the best Christmas songs I've heard in years. As you know, many releases sound re-hashed and after a few seconds you're still hearing it but you're not listening to it. I was remised when this one ended...
Great job!

Nice production. Excellent vocal - (really sells it!).

With apologies to the Antibumpers out there, I wanted to bump this thread. I love Christmas, and we really need Christmas music this year.
None of these songs would be possible if not for PG Music and their incredible software.
Merry Christmas to everyone!

Bob

Hi, Bob !
I´m late ( as usual) !
but I think this is one of your best tunes ever and absolutely perfect as a Christmas tune - did you participate in a songwriting competition about Christmas Tunes ?
Happy New Year !
Cheers Dani

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
Happy Easter! Holiday Hours...

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
