Christmas music from my childhood.



One of my favorites as a child. Sure, some would argue-oh, so depressing. Well, no. To me, this is the urban bookend to Robert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening." It brings to mind walking through a neighborhood late at night, no wind and it is quietly snowing. Folks' houses lit up with Christmas lights inside and out. Just you under a dark sky with snow coming down without a sound. Inside these homes, families are gathered with those they love and cherish, on the darkest night of the year. Soon you'll be home to yours.
