Usually i watch Susan on utube on Saturdays when my work is done and I find time to relax. I usually have a glass of wine or three and it's usually late in the evening when I begin. I always feel this immense power coming from Susan and I normally can't take my eyes off of this beautiful woman. Today, I am listening and watching Susan singing Christmas Angel and I dare anyone on this planet not to feel emotional and wonderful and privileged to witness our own angel sing this wonderful song in this wonderful way. We are so privileged. Thank you Susan. We all love you so much.
Thank you Vinny.....I don't know if you have heard the story of this song but it was written by a friend of mine about her child. Her little boy was a down syndrome child and had to receive a heart operation. He didn't make it through and passed away shortly thereafter. So, although this song is about Christmas, it is about her little boy. It was difficult for me to sing the song at this concert....it almost invariably brings me to tears.
Wow! Christmas Angel is certainly a favorite for me too, Vinny!
Susan, I'm so glad you've made this song known. I think you do a really remarkable job with what had to be this writer's most powerful thoughts and emotion. BTW, David provides some really tight harmony too! Maybe someday this song could be included on a Susan Jacks Christmas Album?
And somehow, songwriters manage to find the words when there seem to be none. This one sure has. I'll definitely look forward to that album, Susan! But I think I'd probably play it year 'round .
Such a sad song and thanks for explaining the meaning of it Susan. It sure is a powerful song. I would love to have it on CD or DVD, but I'm just grateful to have you on utube.
Christmas Angel
