BH,
That's the spirit! Cool tune. Pure fun. Nothing sticks out to my ears. Excellent vocals and mix.
Thank you for sharing & happy holidays!
Misha.

It's blues! And funky! Just like it says. Good arrangement, mix and vocal. Works for me!

Nice Blues,
Well done - I particularly liked the singing.
Maybe a few too many backing instruments.
Best Regards

Great job, loved the main and bg vocals! I don't usually like a resonator in an electric blues band unless your name is Johnny Winter, but it wasn't too bad here.

Hey bloc-head,
blues and funky - you canÄt go wrong with that combination.
I liked the whole thing on all levels: Your vocals are ace, the BGV nail it.
Liked and enjoyed it from start to finish.
Take care,
Stefan

Christmas and blues is an unusual mix but it works just fine. Interesting one.
Maybe turn down some of the instrument tracks while you're singing.

We love the blues and spent a good part of yesterday listening to bluesy Christmas songs.
And this fine song would've fit right in that playlist!
Those "session magicians" provided excellent backing tracks for your fine vocal and lyric.
No offense taken to the lyric as we've written a couple of Christmas blues tunes, including one called Santa Man, which danced around the same theme.
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and thanks for the fun listen,
J&B

Christmas blues, much in the line of Elvis's Christmas blues songs.
So because I liked Elvis
I love this song.
Great job!
My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.
