Anne-Marie & Rob,
Beautifully done. Vocals, arrangement, mix - all excellent.
The modern commentary in a Christmas song is an interesting, fresh angle.
Nice video - as usual...
Merry Christmas to you both.

Rob & Anne-Marie,
An original and timely way to deliver your message.
Very nice slightly sad melody.
Beautiful vocal and arrangement. The electro flute was a cool instrument choice.
Most enjoyable!

Great performance! And I'm always a fan of your arrangements and instrument choices.
The mix sounds lush and lovely and complements the vocal perfectly.
And the composition is very creative.
I enjoyed it all very much!
(and belated Merry Christmas) And Happy New Year!

We can well relate to the sentiment that you two so wonderfully expressed.
The timing and choice of video clips for the video are stunningly well done.
And then there is the lovely vocal performance and production. This should be seen by millions.
Hope y’all have a fun and productive new year!

Very beautiful you two! I really enjoyed this! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year. Don't eat too much oliebollen--which I believe means "little oily balls" over there.
