This is such a prime example as to why Devin has such a hardcore and loyal fan base. I mean. I'm a metal head. I absolutely love your heavier stuff and your SYL era stuff. But I'm also a huge fan of everything you do. You put more passion and heart into a song than anyone I've ever heard. And it can be felt by those who listen. We love you Devin, and thank you for everything you do for us fans.

106 years ago.... 4 months into World War 1 & its becoming all too apparent that this conflict WON'T be ending for Christmas! Christmas Eve 1914; British trenches are befuddled upon hearing over the German Trenches "Silent Night" being sung, a sing off follows. Christmas Day & both sides decide for a while to pack the war in for at least a few hours! Exchanging gifts, burying their fallen & even a soccer/football match If only this version was playing & they'd all pack the war in completely!! P.S Upon 1st hearing this 1st time.. I was weeping from its sheer genuine gentle beauty

The last decade of holidays have not been a happy time for me with both parents, my sister, a brother and a best friend all passing away. But my son is living with me this year and with your heartfelt music as the soundtrack, it's a recipe for tears of joy this year. I know everyone has the pressure of buying gifts and even filling up credit cards . Consider sending a couple of pizzas to your local hospital ER for the staff. Shovel an elderly neighbor's sidewalk and driveway. Make a charitable donation to a no-kill animal shelter, or buy pet food and treats for a friend that's struggling. I hope we all get what we need this year more than what we want. We need to be healthy and to be able to love and respect each other. Please Santa
