Howdy folks, This project has been going on for about 4 months and finally got the master version back from Herb Hartley. I'm not sure if the track length would be too long? I would greatly appreciate any kind of comments/feedback on the mix, melody and lyrics. Our goal is to get this track placed on a Christmas project with a country artist. "The Best Christmas" http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=11593910Words and music (C) 2012 Darin Martin and Herb Hartley Vocals by Buffer Verse One I don't need to be on Santa's Christmas list. I don't need to send a letter to jolly old St Nick. I hear the carolers singing right outside my door The melody of Silver Bells leaves me wanting more. Verse Two The gray December sky kinda looks like snow. I thought I caught a glimpse of Rudolph's red red nose I wanna ride the polar express with all the boys and girls You hold my ticket to a better world. Pre-Chorus If I had the chance to do this all again I don't think I could share it, with a better friend. Chorus The best gifts of Christmas are all free. You can't find them under any Christmas tree. When you whisper “I Love You”.... right in my ear. You gave me the best Christmas gift this year. SOLO Verse Three I don't need to see Santa with a long white beard. You make my day & night just by being here. When you hold me close, in a lovers embrace I love the way you put a smile back on my face Verse Four I can see the angels dancing among the stars God sent you here to put true love in my heart When you finally learn, what it really means to give You fill the emptiness in your heart and you'll start to live. Bridge The only gift you need to give is love When someone loves you back, you'll have enough. Chorus The best gifts of Christmas are all free. You can't find them under any Christmas tree. When you whisper “I Love You”.... right in my ear. You gave me the best Christmas gift this year. Outro Yeah you did You gave me the best Christmas gift this year. Oh girl! Merry Christmas to you dear!

I really like the upbeat tempo. The melody was nice ... the chorus was catchy. I was singing along by the end of the song. I could easily hear the song on an Christmas album. Great work!

Thanks you for the comments. Cognac - Herb Hartley is going to send this in to the publisher luncheon at NSAI and I will pitch this to SongU listings. I'll for sure let you know if and when it gets picked up.
