probably buried somewhere in this blog, i have mentioned the fact that i was born in new york city. as a result, this city, which often is referred to as the greatest on the earth (and i wholeheartedly agree with this opinion), has a very special place in my heart.
as special as new york city is year-round, i find it to be particularly wonderful, almost magical, during the holiday season. the sights and sounds that fill the city are the holidays at their best, and that spirit of joy, peace, and goodwill seems to find it's way into many a heart and mind.
the songs i'm posting today are a celebration of christmas in the city. i keep meaning to make a visit to nyc during the holiday season, but i have let each year pass by without doing so. maybe 2016 will be the year.
despite my procrastination, f you haven't had an opportunity to see new york at christmas, i would encourage you not to delay your trip. you will be very glad for the visit.
