Tom: CB, our reader, writes in with this suggestion. “I like his voice and it is pleasant enough,” says CB, “but I can’t find the chorus.”
Tim: Blimey, he must have got a bit bored standing in that town square. But yeah, there’s a chorus.
Tom: Well, there definitely is a chorus, but CB’s right that it does all merge together into a bit of a mush. There’s no sense of progression through the song — and that can work sometimes, but here it just makes the whole thing a little bit forgettable.
Tim: Maybe, possibly. I listened to it while I was colouring in my advent calendar for today so wasn’t paying immense attention to it, but it was a lovely soundtrack for doing that.
Tom: I won’t ask why you were colouring in your advent calendar.
Tim: Well, ’cause it’s a colouring in advent calendar, dummy. This isn’t an immense track, sure, but it’s very pleasant to listen to, and I’d disagree with you that there’s no progression – even if it’s fairly steady, there’s a definite sense of arrival when that final chorus comes along, and it’s one I like.
Tom: It’s… well, it’s nice.
Tim: It’s very nice.
