Okay I'm going to cram in one more revamped Christmas song...of my Christmas songs this has my favorite BiaB tracks and arrangement (maybe cause there are so many key changes in it or because of it's simplicity in structure)...anyway one last time around the ol' Christmas tree...so if you do (well you know the drill)...thanks ...Dan

I like the country groove of this version

Super Christmas gift, Dan. Thanks so much (and I won't add "you shouldn't have"). Such a good write and presentation. You use modulation so well to accent the uplifting inspiration in your songs. Enjoy your Christmas, Dan!


Enjoy whatever happens!

Dan,,

Man, you are so talented!

I love key modulations - in my opinion that breathe new freshness into a song.

The first thing that crossed my mind after the first two or three words was: Is this an old, recently discovered Marty Robbins song?

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas. Di and I will reserve a special place in our thoughts for M'Ley - you, too.

Merry Christmas.

Dan, I thought I had already commented on this!
Well, here you go again giving all of us a master class in vocal harmony
I love this song and I'm sure many others listening will concur!
It's inspiring to me to see you keep posting high quality music like this!
Take care, TB

Hi, Dan.

Cool song, well done remix/instrumentation.

More proof that you can never have too many modulations! wink

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

This should be one of the yearly classics sung in worship of God's incarnation every Advent/Christmas in churches around the world.

LOVE how you kept increasing the intensity with the key changes and production.

Thank you for sharing your talent with us, Dan!

I'm late to the party but glad that I came and caught this one.
Dan I think your songs should be on every Christian music station.
As usual an outstanding production.

Dan, wow. Super Christmas tune for sure. Those are some superb, beefy vocals, and splendidly arranged. Love how the gas pedal keeps pressing a LITTLE harder on each successive verse. Nice BiaB backing band, too. "Master Class" is overused, but fits this one perfectly.

I missed this one on the first post as well. Easy for tunes to get pushed off the first page and into possible oblivion. Thanks to J&B for digging this one out!
