WoW. No Carol of the Bells, but anything by this group is worth a listen. Let it Snow takes me back to northern winters building snow forts, fighting off the boys' attack, sledding, carolling house to house, ice-skating, playing ice-hockey on the vacant lot next door, and building snowmen. (I would anger my male friends because from the time I was a little girl I insisted on calling them snowpeople.) Looking outside the window up at the street light as the snow fell each evening with the twinkling of the Christmas tree lights reflecting off the window is a memory I shall always cherish. My mother would always decorate the house, adding new decorations yearly. And she was creative, making 3-D snowmen and Santas from painted magazine pages; speciality Christmas design cakes; and homemade holiday candles. No matter what problems went on inside the home, the Christmas season seemed to bring out the best in everyone...at least for a week or so. And the snow outside to play in with my male friends was an added bonus. This song, like all the songs of the band's, is wonderful. So thankful Christmas is almost here and a new and good year begins soon.
