So, if you're new around here, there's something I might should tell you.
I love Clay Aiken.
I do. There was a period in my life, even, when I would proudly, happily refer to myself as a Claymate. I was a card carrying member of the fan club for not one, but two years in a row. I may have even attended a concert, or two. OR SEVEN.
Now, we HAVE grown apart in recent years. Something about him not returning my calls and deciding that he wanted to sing old lady songs take his music in a different direction. (I'm sorry. Was that mean? Okay. I really love Unchained Melody. I can get behind that one. But Moon River? It's just not my speed.)
Even though Clay isn't actually on my ipod playlist anymore, I still say the guy has one of the most amazing voices I have ever heard. He still gives me chills. I still think he rocks. I would still act like a ridiculously giddy school girl if I ever had reason to meet him in person.
And now because it's Christmas and because his voice really is just so pretty, a song for you. Or maybe two.
(As a bonus, this video is really wonderful too. Didn't have anything to do with it... just found it on you tube. Enjoy it yes, just um, as a side, don't forget it's Clay that's singin')

And one more... I wish I had a better recording of this song. I love the words.
