I know her well, beautiful song. I wish the stores would vary their selection, sheesh!
Oh, this is beautiful. Thank you, Marylinn, for the introduction. My ex had some of her music, but I'd never heard the Christmas stuff.
Beth - When I found this, I listened to some of her other music with its "Mists of Avalon" qualities and am a grateful convert. xo
Pamela - You are welcome. Jennifer Warnes had done a version of this song years and years ago and it was that I sought but the richness, as I said, the mystery, Loreena communicates made me glad I'd gone looking. xo
