hallelujah, this is christmas!

christmas grows ever nearer and so i thought that today's songs would be songs by great vocalists that celebrate what i feel is the essence of christmas -- a joyful celebration of hope, love, peace, and healing for all.

this morning's song is by a singer that an old friend once said she could just listen to him sing the phone book and it would be a powerful experience. here is the title song from his christmas album that i would submit is even better than a rendition of the phone book.

this is christmas -- luther vandross from this is christmas
