I'm 40 years young and for some reason I can't exactly explain I cannot get enough of this vintage classic sound & Christmas Songs. It's feels as GENUINE AS IT GETS. Bing Crosby just has one of those voices. JUST INCREDIBLE.

42 on friday......this was my childhood. I have a very jaded and cynical soul. Christmas is the time i get that spark of humanity back into me and seeknout those childhood feelings. We didn't have much growing up but mom and dad always made christmas special. My dad was the same way i am and it was the one tike of year he seemed to have hope.

Creo que irrepetible, fue una época de aguas muy claras. Ellos se llevaron la música y la Fe al cielo.
