I listen to music ,watch news, do stock, and text all at the same time---no problem All I have to hear is 1 verse
I will go back now and listen to see what this song is indeed--about!
Love the steel--Nashville style--P.S. I played with the best steel player in the world! Cheers! catnip=+=

I love the voice...... good story!... I would like to work with the singer.......

Great idea of the song.

This Christmas song, performed by a talented female vocalist and backed by a skilled ensemble; would make a nice addition to your holiday playlist this year. This song is easy on the ears, tugs on the heart and has a country-music motif and live-recording quality.

I think this song has real potential.

Has a nice authentic country feel. Character of voice is good.

Very unique idea for a sad Christmas ballad, a good reminder that Christmas isn't very merry for the hurting kids out there. Thanks for that poignant message. You have a great voice and an excellent idea. The only thing that I would say you need to work on is your lyric writing. Your rhymes need improving, I'd say. Some of the verses didn't seem to have workable rhymes, and others were stretching it, like Christmas rhyming with kiss....it just didn't work for me. The song had nice instrumentation, passionate delivery, and again, GREAT idea.
