Carol of the Bells
I loved every second of the singing, standing in front of my TV, tears streaming down my face. I wanted to hear it and watch it over and over and over. It mattered not whether it was one Coast Guard soprano soloist or a whole choir, as it sometimes was. The singing was wonderful. Superb. Thank you.
