Magnificent work, Andy! Frankly, I'd always wanted to hear the backstory of this song, but never looked it up! You answered all the questions I had....I've always considered her song one of the best "modern" Christmas songs that could easily win the Contemporary-Christmas-Song-Most-Likely-to-Be-Played-in-Malls-a-Century-From-Now Award, long after other 20- and 30-year-old attempts have retired to the yawn-heap!
Your photos are incredible! I always like to guess what's happening (in star pix) just out of camera range: She's surrounded by her "people," I'm guessing. In photo #1️⃣, her people are cautioning you, "Andy, please don't touch the talent." In photo #2️⃣, her people are whispering, "Mariah, please be gentle with the talent." Another story could/should be told, Mr. C., on how these photos came about, and where you were....the whole shebang! In the meantime, I'll be pestering my local hobby shop to get them to order me the collectible Limited Edition Andy Celati Funko Pop!
Seriously, bud, well done....if you weren't convinced before, this proves you are a fully-proficient and effective bio/factual/history music writer! Write on, I say!✌😁📝
