Longtime readers of this blog will likely know by now that one of my favourite downloads each year is Sofia Talvik's annual Christmas song. Every year since 2007 (the year this blog was started, coincidentally, although I didn't discover her first Christmas song until my second year), she has released an original, heartfelt, bittersweet, and thought provoking Christmas song. This year's song, "One Last Wish for Christmas" is "a story about love, loss, and afterthought at Christmas." It is heartbreakingly beautiful, and like many of her songs, it stays with me long after I've finished listening to it.
You can download the song using the little widget at the bottom of this post. If, for some reason, that doesn't work, you can get it directly from her website.
Sofia also has a Christmas calendar in the form of an email list, If you sign up for the list, you'll get a daily email with a little gift in it - for example, the first gift was actually this song, and today's gift is a video showing how to make a really neat looking gingerbread house, complete with a printable template. If that sounds like the kind of thing you'd be into, sign up now to get the rest of the gifts delivered straight to your inbox.
Happy listening!

Hello Jeff
Meant to post a "Welcome back!" message on your previous post. I think I found the Over the Rhine stuff last year, so it's probably better to say thank you for this new download anyway. (That's my excuse for being late, and I'm sticking to it!)

Thanks alot for music
I really liked this song. Do you know if this artist only sings christmas songs? I would like to recomend you the new christmas charol that Pentatonix uploaded recently, The Little Drummer Boy. It is a very good version... I leave you this link: http://youtu.be/qJ_MGWio-vc
