This is by far the best version on YouTube. It's got a terrific lilt to it, the phrases are beautifully sculpted and the sound,itself is gorgeous. And that lighted tree covered with snow adds so much.

I've enjoyed finding this stuff and putting it all together more than I could say, even though so few seem to have time -- or interest -- in taking advantage of it.
