We know, we know..... This is kinda cliché, but we needed a good backing track for our upcoming Christmas gig and we couldn't find a good karaoke tape. Luckily there was BiaB We quickly generated the backing track (20 minutes). And decided to post it as our Christmas greetings. The second verse may not sound too familiar to you, that's because it's in Dutch Best wishes to you all!

I agree with floyed. A beautiful rendition. Nice use of BIAB. Everything y'all do is excellent. I listened to the Dutch version for the first time. Beautiful! And I love the Dutch.
A beautiful version of one of my favourite seasonal songs. Such exquisite and warm sounding vocals. Your voices in harmony are indeed a heavenly sound! Loved the second verse.
Merry Christmas and Happy 2017 to you both

The calmness and sincerity that flow from this rendition was amazing. To take a song sung by so many thousand and to be able to give it such a wonderful touch your ‘own touch you just added another dimension to my faith.
Beautiful rendition, nothing less than we've come to expect.
