  • The Perfect Gift sung by Clifton Murray of the "Canadian Tenors" at the Royal Conservatory of Music, Toronto Canada.
    My daughter and I had an interesting discussion trying to decide "who" was singing this song. Is the song being sung from the point of view of a parent to a child? from a lover to his love? from a loved-one who has passed away? Different lines from the song lend itself to different points-of-view. My daughter wisely said that perhaps the song was supposed to encompass all these relationships. Without argument, we thought the message was about encouragement and how the most "perfect" gift we could get from those we love is to see them flourish while following their dreams. And that they always remember that "we will always be there" supporting them in spirit, if not with our physical presence, as they do it.
    The Perfect Gift
    Close your eyes and I will sing a song for you
    I will always be there
    I will always love you
    While you're dreaming, I will row your boat ashore
    I will always be there for you
    Across the sky and back again we get torn
    and who knows when my heart had begun to mend, all because of you
    I still fall up apart when you're in my arms like this
    You give me the perfect gift
    Don't be scared to face your fears
    Don't be scared to spread your wings
    Don't be scared to shed your tears
    'Cause love is everything
    And when you're dancing, don't forget to dance alone
    I will always be there
    If you remember all of this, you'll give me the perfect gift.
    You gave me the perfect gift.

    It feels like this song is about my beautiful Dad, who I lost almost 2 years ago but it feels like it was yesterday, and an eternity at the same time. I know you are always there, because I carry you with me. But my heart still aches every day. It's so true - LOVE IS EVERYTHING. I love you Dad. xo

    I have pushed this song on repeat all Christmas long but I think it is the song of my heart. I think of it is as God being in my life despite struggles, challenges, defeats, mistakes and tragedy. The world has forgotten me, maybe even hates me, maybe doesn't want me but God gave me, gave us the perfect gift. The voice is amazing - but it is the light, the hope that radiates from it (Clifton Murray from the Tenors). Too bad I sound like a dying cow being run over. I am inspried to share the perfect gift but then reality hits and I remember I am nothing in the world's eyes - ugly, untalented and not popular but I do hold on to the perfect gift given to us all. It is so inspiring. I would love to meet the singer - does anyone know more about these Tenors? I googled them but I am not sure are they like huge stars or what? I am so touched and moved by their music and i want to do great things to encoruage and inspire others.

    I think the answer to this is expressed by both Clifton's and Fraser's moms on the Mothers' Day 2013 surprise in Chicago. They both said that they loved their sons but that they were particularly happy for the boys as they were pursuing what they loved and what made them happy -- their music. I believe every mother feels this way about her children.
