I like it alot too! Even though the mood was quite sad throughout, there was variations in development and many points of building climax that kept it interesting. I don't hear any of the slip-ups you mentioned-it sounds really fluid. Sounds like it could match the gray day I just went through today. How did you learn to play improv piano so well?

Hahaha! I love this!!!!!!!!!!!!!! These lyrics are so well written and really relatable (so impressed right now. You wrote this all by yourself?). I love the imagery and common Christmas events throughout (Adore the lyrics: "As you watch Uncles Ernie and Leo ..hug each other in a fond embrace and remembering old grudges.. they punch each other in the face"... reminds me of the Grumpy Old Men movie. Honestly, who doesn't have two fighting relative rivals in a family?). When's the date that you need a music file for this lyric by?

I'm a bit unclear as to who Vanessa and Lily are in this poem-is Vanessa the expectant mother and Lily her daughter? What genre of music are you setting this to?
