A song of beauty

Six days to go. And as an adult, this is when Christmas fatigue sets in – I start to lose sight of the joy of the holiday, and cross over into checking-things-off-a-list mode. But not yesterday. Yesterday, I spent the day listening to “O Holy Night” as performed by The City of New Orleans on Studio 60. It was gorgeous when I first heard it on the show, and it’s even better as a free download. Get it at nbc.com, now, because goodness knows how long it will be available. It brought me to tears while listening – the good kind. I would have gladly paid $$ for the download, especially if the proceeds were to help New Orlean’s musicians. Places you can help include the Tipitina Foundation, as well as Habitat for Humanity’s Musician’s Village. Give them a look, please. But don’t forget to download the song! Happy Tuesday.
