Even after hearing this song hundreds of times, it still has a magical feel to it whenever it comes on.

How perfect to hear this today, a white Christmas, after kicking through weightless diamond skydust in a string of neighborhood parks...juniper, spruce, red pines adding their scent to the ionized breeze...sighing rapturous at the sight, smell, and chill of the cloudbank dumping its magic along The Great Divide...

yes to the 14, loved the scene in " immediate family" where the woman and young gal where dancing to this, and reminicing where they first heard it and what it meant to them,
