Deej,
An excellent write.
Well sung (of course).
Great use of BIAB. Nice acoustic guitar bed.
Nice arrangement. Well mixed.

This second version is much more intimate. Your solo voice carries through more, and I'm so glad you kept at least some of the harmonies. Just had to add this, my two cents' worth, for what it's worth :-) Superb song, who wouldn't wish for what the lyrics wish for, at Christmas? I know that I, for one, definitely would. You have a way of reading the human soul, and to articulate its hopes and dreams, so well. Bravo. Happy Christmas, once more.

Floyd, Derochette, Misha, and David C:
Thanks for stopping in and giving this one a spin. The kind comments are much appreciated.
Vic, Ezekiel and James: Thanks for the additional listens. Vic, I’ll try to mess more with the drums and see what I can do. Appreciate the advice!
Wishing you all a very happy Holiday!
Deej

Very touching and emotional lyric and your heartfelt interpretation really brings it back home. Very pleasant melody. Good selection of instruments, I like the solo guitar, but somehow the rest of the band sounds bit restrained compared to its brightness. I feel this would be a perfect soundtrack song for any Hallmark Christmas movie.

Janne,
Thanks much for the listen and feedback. I think if and when I revisit this I may see if I can tamp down the brightness of the solo guitar--which is to say, I appreciate your comment in that regard. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas!

“And let the light of love
I’ve been dreaming of
Fill me up and
Heal my broken heart”
Janice’s favorite lines of this sentimental gem!
Beautiful song, Deej, in all aspects. The arrangement is very nice and we love the call back harmonies.
Your heartfelt vocals are always a big part of the package as so many have mentioned.
Excellent band and mix that set up a great soundstage on the monitors.
Merry Christmas!
J&B

Hello Deej,
A wonderful emotional song!
As you know I like your voice a lot, but I also liked the bg-harmony. Very nice indeed.
And a very nice melody that fitted in the time of year (then, but also now, just after Blue monday...)
