So, I was at Costco tonight and saw this CD for a decent price, and thought, "Why not?" I brought it home, popped it into the computer, and started listening...the verdict? I LOVE IT! I love it, I love it, I love it! It's one of the best Christmas CD's I've heard in a really long time, and it features one of my favorite Sarah songs: "Song For A Winter's Night" (which I already have on her "Rarities, B Sides & Other Stuff" album).
The only song that is missing from this CD, is her duet of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" with The Barenaked Ladies--which I also look forward to hearing around Christmas. Anyone know where I can find that one? Other than that, this CD has a variety of traditional as well as never-heard Christmas tunes that is easy on the ears and very mellow. I love her version of "Christmas Time Is Here" and "What Child Is This?" It's perfect for a night of cuddling next to the fire.

The lamp is burning low
upon my table top
snow is softly falling
the air is still
in the silence of my room
I hear your voice softly calling
If I could only have you near
to breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy
just to hold the hands I love
on this winters night with you
Smoke is rising in the shadows overhead
my glass is almost empty
I read again between the lines
upon each page,
the words of love you sent me
If I could know within my heart
that you were lonely too
I would be happy
just to hold the hands I love
on this winters night with you
The fire is dying
my lamp is growing dim
shades of night are lifting
morning light steals across my window pane
where webs of snow are drifting
If I could only have you near
to breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy
just to hold the hands I love
on this winters night with you
And you'll be once again with me

you can get the BBN + SM song on an album called "A Winter's Night." I just looked it up on iTunes and found it. You can do either the entire album or just the song
