There is a sweet melancholy to this song. Joanie’s voice is warm, melodic and lush. It feels like the beginning of the season without the fantasy of childhood. The instrumentation is perfect for this lovely moody tune and Fareed Haque's production hears it all.” Andy Cahill, Host of The Andy Cahill Show, WIOX 91.3 fm, wioxradio.org "A lovely and evocative winter song that combines the
melancholy underpinning of music with the uplifting thoughts of Christmas. Music that makes you feel and words that make you think...a song that makes you feel a thought. Emotionally satisfying." Stephen Cole Award Winning Musical Theatre Writer.
