a great song, congrats on your recent number one, well deserved. :)

Definitely a song to make one stop and think. The holidays are not happy times for everyone, especially those less fortunate. Thank you for so eloquently reminding us what the season is really all about (peace and charity)! :)
The flip side of the holiday season - a poignant reminder of the downside of this time of year. I think this song makes such a valid point that in a world full of interaction, internet and communications, many people still remain anonymous, unnoticed and lacking true friendship or help. Great lyrics and well crafted song.
a great song david, love the style of the music, very good vocal. thank you for inviting me to listen.
Love

An enchanting and captivating song! Great melody and imagery. Love the lyrics. This is such a creative song, unusual (in a good way!) and atmospheric. First class songwriting and composition - enjoyed this one a lot.
