I first heard this song one night listening to Delilah on the radio. I was listening on my RCA Opal that allows for recording from FM. I immediately hit the record button and caught the last 2.5 minutes of the song. I then researched to find the name of the song and downloaded it through Amazons MP3 download feature. The download was flawless and the song is great. It is beautifully played, has a lovely, hauntingly ethereal sound and the vocals are incredible. Sometimes I set my player for repeat and will just listen to this one song over and over. I would highly recommend this song to anyone wanting to just listen to a great song, especially durng the Christmas Season.

Ever since I heard the "canon" classic version in Steve Martin's Father Of The Bride with Miss Diane Keaton walking down the center isle of the wedding to her daughter's marriage, I knew this would be the music for my wedding of the future. Now that I've just recently heard this Christmas version accompanied by angelic voices of singing children, I know that the wedding will take place during the Christmas season holiday, and this will be the song.

Canon is by far one of my most favorite pieces and I think most people would agree since it has been used in various mixes. Previously my favorite mix has been bleding of ocean sounds with it in the background. Now coming across this holiday mix, I have fallen in love once again with a timeless classic. When this comes on the radio, computer or t.v. my kiddos know I will stop doing whatever I am doing in the house, close my eyes and pause...well done, simply perfect!

Besides the fact that this is a great song (if you are reading this review you probably already know that) Amazon MP3's are also compatable with Itunes. Yes, I know it says that in the description, but getting the song into Itunes goes quite smoothly. And I'm usually the one that has issues with things like that and they just don't go like they should with my computer. After you buy the song, you can download the song using amazon cloud. The MP3's that you buy on Amazon are saved in Amazon Cloud. Amazon gives step by step instructions that are easy to follow. I had to allow a pop-up on my computer. It took a couple minutes to download (at least on my computer) but then it was downloaded right into Itunes. Amazon MP3's also seem to be cheaper then Itunes. I know, not by much, but cheaper is always nice if you don't mind going through a couple extra steps and have a few extra minutes to spare!

I've been so used to itune, didn't expect this to be easy purchase and usage!
