[@wickedlacquer]

[@marshaeisner]

I'm not Christian, but I know a beautiful song when I hear it. Just wonderful!!!!

[@TimothyWallace1953]

HE loves each of us just the same... no matter the #TeamJersey

[@Alyssabrainne15]

True story: This morning after swimming class, I was changing, combing my hair, putting on makeup and listening to music. I was playing Sparrow in the Birch and singing along quite loudly, because I thought I was alone. A girl popped out of now where and said "I love this song. What is it called?" So I told her and explained the Shaytards to her also.

[@CallieCrofts]

Aww, thanks for sharing!

[@runawaysunshine]

i have to explain the shaytards to so many people but they never get it. At least the true shaytards family and handshake members understand.

[@abbeynyman2093]

Nice job you rock for that!

[@belindahernandez7972]

***** I love you guys yall have beautiful voices you girls are so pretty

[@belindahernandez7972]

***** I live in Texas 10 years old Belinda Collette is beautiful and so are you you girls truly are inspirational don't listen to negative people think of positive things

[@austin-w8j]

Still listening to this 7 years later

[@Sarahfansler85]

I watched this a few hours ago and now my 6 year old daughter is asking me "Mom can you play that song ding dong ding ding dananana birch" . I think you guys have a new little fan;)

[@CallieCrofts]

OMG that is adorable!!

[@cutekitty88]

When I first heard this I thought it was a well known mainstream song..bc it sounds as good and well produced as any other traditional christmas song out there.and when I found out you wrote it I was amazed. It sounds perfect from beginning to end..this is the one song that's been getting stuck in my head.

[@CallieCrofts]

Thank you so much!

[@Ahntara123]

Callie, don't know how you did it, but you wrote a Classic. This is awesome

[@CallieCrofts]

Awww

[@zizzgy]

My mom lost her sister this year in a horrible explosion this album made by sisters has brought her some comfort. I thank you for that.

[@Mamacpj]

Making this comment on both Katielette's channel and yours (for anyone considering buying the album). I have bought many Christmas compilations and usually on average 2 songs make it to my Ipod (which I use for our house stereo). This is the ONLY compilation I bought where EVERY song made it onto the IPOD. So AWESOME! My eardrums, my heart and my soul are all pleased by every song!

[@ColetteKati]

Thank you so much! That means a lot :)

[@anavukojicic5872]

katilette it is truly an amazing song and i bought the full album and love all the songs your voices are beautiful and harmonious together its a great joy to my ears. Thank you for making this amazing album i cant wait to the next ;)

[@kristineelise86]

What I love most about these videos is your dad. You can just see him gleaming with pride and so proud of his daughters. It's adorable!

[@monical8511]

Beautiful! This song and the Marry Me song are my favourites. I was listening to the album at my moms and dancing like a fool, it was a great time! Love the video, can't wait to see them all! Amazing work, Callie & family.

[@CallieCrofts]

That is such a lovely compliment! These are the first 2 Christmas songs I've ever attempted to write. I'm so glad you like them :)

[@ajlinaceki5026]

I'm obsessed with this song GREAT WORK in capital

[@footprince1000]

Beautiful!! Papa Crofts gotta be so proud of his family!

[@IrishCol1only]

Sooo beautiful....this song has fast become one of my all time favourite Christmas songs! Thank you all for sharing your wonderful talents with us....you sound wonderful together and such a beautiful arrangement and song!

[@CallieCrofts]

I really appreciate it! This is the first Christmas song I've ever written :)

[@NoreensKitchenOfficial]

***** This song is amazing! Thank you for sharing it with the world and bringing it to us via your family band! Simply beautiful. At times it reminds me of a group from the 70's called the Free Design. I have performed with a group that did a song of theirs called "Love You" I think you guys would kill that song!

[@TimothyWallace1953]

Noreen's Kitchen I baked your Pineapple Upside Down Cake for Thanksgiving!

[@NoreensKitchenOfficial]

Timothy Wallace I hope you enjoyed it Timothy! I also hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

[@anavukojicic5872]

***** The first but still sounds like you have been doing it for years

[@902auntmeme]

My favorite! Just listen to that baritone and sweet harmony! Love it!

[@tiffaniec8556]

My brother bought me this album for Christmas 3 years ago. It plays all December long. My absolute favorite.

[@NysaHarisis]

I STILL PLAY THIS EVERY YEAR!

[@robin103]

even when i first heard this song, it felt like i already knew it. like it was already a christmas classic! i love this one

[@XHONOR2012X]

Not only is this song Beautiful but it is going straight to my Christmas playlist. Callie you are so incredibly talented. I have been with you since the start. All the ups and downs that life throws at us all and you only Shine Brighter from those experiences. I think this song and album takes you to a higher and well deserved level..

[@CallieCrofts]

Thank you so much for sticking around through this adventure of mine. It really means a lot! I appreciate the compliment so much

[@islamicviews2585]

as Collete said, I am really proud of u. Firstly ,u have written most songs in the album. Second, u brought a special day for the whole family to gather. Thirdly, u have choreographed this whole album. Fourthly, u and the family sang SOOOO well. Last but not least, I suffer from deppresion (majorly) but when I hear ur song I stopped going so mad. Thank u Callie for putting a LOT of effort, just for us. Also, the rest of the family....

[@galscout101]

***** I love you and family I found you from Shay! your the best

[@TifasKnight]

It's beyond me how a family can be so musically gifted. I know all music comes with practice and dedication but I'm thinking specifically of the singing and how well your voices compliment each other. My voice is not geared to singing, unfortunately, but all of you can not only carry a tune but make something beautiful and transcendent. I'm just in awe! This is such a beautiful song!

[@samkelly6603]

somehow in the middle of the night I remembered this song and I'm soo happy I did as I forgot how beautiful it was

[@coreyjamesharris3679]

is this an original song? either way its beautiful and i can't stop listening. I'm a sucker for a harmony. and damn this good

[@CallieCrofts]

It is original. Thank you so much!

[@coreyjamesharris3679]

Dang girl. You should like make music for a living.. oh wait.

[@srystr77]

Your voices are so beautiful it cry every time I hear this song. Just amazing.

[@srystr77]

Back to agree with the comment I made 6 years ago.

[@Daniellem291]

I have been a fan of the Shaytard for a long time, especially Colette. I know Callie but just as Colette's sister and have seen you in the vlogs over the years! Sparrow in the birch has being playing in the Shaytards vlogs quite a lot lately and I can't get it out of my head! So i decided to look you up and now I'm hooked! I love your voice and songs. There is something so relaxing about them. I've subscribed. Congrats all involved in the album.

[@CallieCrofts]

Welcome to my world, and thank you so much :)

[@kenwithaK]

me too, have been an avid shaytards fan for a little while. i've just realized how awesome a musician callie is. theres something very cool about her voice

[@atlantadelgado1941]

three years later and i still love it.

[@carriegilbert9193]

This is one of the most beautiful Christmas songs I have ever heard. Callie, you are such a talent!

[@CallieCrofts]

Thank you so much!

[@pronkerpronker6708]

I heard this in my local hardware store and couldn't rest until I searched for it here on YT, by the terms 'I follow the birds Christmas song new'!! Lovely, lovely evocation of the holiday, thanks for making it.

[@TiffanyAlex]

Beautiful music video for a beautiful song! It came out so good! I'm really impressed on how awesome your mini set looks!

[@TimothyWallace1953]

This video has received the Tiffanation Seal of Approval! POW!

[@beanzy23456]

I spent thanksgiving in NJ with my Aunt, and I bought this album to listen to. I have a plug that connects to my iPhone to my car so I can listen to music on my phone through the cars speakers. My brother was in the car and I played this one song OVER AND OVER AGAIN because it is beautiful and he and I now know every word and sing as many harmonies as possible withe just the 2 of us. Amazing singers singing amazing songs on an amazing album... Can't beat that! Enjoy your holidays!! ❤️

[@Warrior6795]

Everything about this song is perfect. The writing is amazing with the instrumentation and the lyrics that are absolutely beautiful. All of your singing was just as beautiful and the round, oh my goodness the round! It was mesmerizing. Ain't nothing wrong with this song. Nothing.

[@tjandduns6049]

2018 and I still listen to this every Christmas

[@eddyboy2002]

Even when I heard a bit of the song, I knew this would be my favourite. And it is.

[@eddyboy2002]

[@misslindajane87]

[@londontolosangeles12]

[@jusleensidhu5324]

I've been listening to this over and over and my sister put on the radio and I said to her what are you doing? She said turning on the radio and I said are you crazy we can just listen to sparrow in the birch! So I turned up the volume and ever since we couldn't stop listening to it! This is so amazing you guys sound great together!

[@JessicaBeeler]

Listened to this song ONCE this morning, and it was stuck in my head all day. It's really very beautiful!

[@XxHarmonicNightsxX]

I was surprised to learn that the original songs on the album are in fact original. They sounds like classics! You guys are so talented!

[@CallieCrofts]

Thank you! That is the best compliment! Writing a Christmas song is quite a daunting task. I approached them wanting to make them sound as classic as possible. I appreciate that :)

[@queeniesteenie]

The fact that this is an original song is mind blowing! Amazing Callie!!

[@Yoo0M]

"While the morning frost clings to the branches In a fight against the sun" - beautifully said
