Default Free "Silent Night" download

Go to

http://www.manowar.com

scroll down the home page a bit and there's two free downloads, one in English, one in German

I love this carol - reminds me of my dad and when we lived in Germany in the sixties.....

Never a good time but this is worst. People say time is a good healer, which it is, but it can never heal it completely. First Christmas after my Dad passed away was awful and new year was worst. We always used to sit up and see it in together with a glass of Scotch.

When ever I smell cigar smoke I think of Christmas day because Dad always had a cigar in the afternoon.

Silent night best carol EVER!

Silent Night is a Beautiful Carol,
but
Christmas Time was always and still is the time for the Biggest amount of Suicides, Depression and Family Rows.
Christmas for some is never a Happy time for what ever reason.
