Wow!


(5 stars)

Oh my gosh! Ryan DeRamos’s recording of “O Little Town of Bethlehem” actually made me cry! Something in his voice and the beautiful way he arranged and played the music just made the song really come alive! And I honestly didn’t expect so many of these songs to be professionally recorded! I can tell everyone involved put in a lot of effort in their own way. But I most certainly didn’t come expecting to be in happy tears! Mr. DeRamos, you deserve a record deal! This December has been a bit of a challenging one for me, but your song has just made me feel so much better! God bless you and everyone else involved in recording this compilation of carols. I honestly don’t understand why anyone would spend a fortune on an Audible or Spotify subscription when you can listen to something simply amazing like this on LibriVox!
