    Sometimes I swear you two have a window into my soul. It was listening to this song in the dimly lit basement while my father fixed something on his work bench that made me fall in love with piano. The song would come on the transistor radio, and he’d turn it up to max volume, his joy lighting up the whole dark room. He’d shake his fingers as he twisted around in a little dance to the rhythm. Tonight, he lies in the hospital at 83, frail and wasting away, the joy gone from his face as he fights for every ounce of vital oxygen. I’m driving 7 hours with my son tomorrow to see him maybe for the final time before his light is gone forever. I’m going to play him your version to give him back a little of what he lost.

      May God strength and peace be with you and family. I agree TPG have been gifted from above and their talent brings more than just a pure enjoyment when listening to their music. I once made their concert and it was an unforgettable experience. They are humble, honest and hugely talented ppl who have been through their own struggles and they bring hope through their music. Love them ❤️ thanks Piano Guys. Pls never change!!!

    I can't believe I'm hearing this song. My mom who isn't with us anymore had a music box that my dad bought her with a ballerina on top dancing to this song. I can see her right now sitting and listening to her music box. This song brought tears to my eyes, good tears but I miss her so much! Thank you Piano Guys for doing this. It means more to me than words can express.

    Whenever I hear this song, it pricks my heart a little. This was the final song that my piano teacher was having me learn, before my parents decided to stop paying for my piano lessons. (I think they'd realized that I liked piano well enough, but I wasn't passionate enough about it to warrant continuing with that expense.)
    I remember how happy I felt when I could finally play this song without making any major mistakes, and the song made me happy enough that I ended up committing it to memory. To this day, all these years later, I can still remember the melody line, and the feeling in my fingers is familiar. It's a good feeling.
    So, yeah. Thank you, Piano Guys. It was good to hear this and be reminded. (Feliz Navidad and other Happy Holidays to you, by the way.)

    I was listening to Advent music via Pandora getting ready for Christmas, just two weeks away, the day of the year that was my late wife's very favorite. She passed away in October of 2020 and Christmas is a sad day for me now, despite the celebration of Jesus' birth and the gatherings with family and friends. It's just not the same without her. Anyway, my Advent mix contains about every version of O Come, O Come, Emmanuel and a lot of wintry instrumentals, while I save the Christmas carols and hymns for the Christmas Season. Inexplicably, Pandora added Music Box Dancer to the rotation. There is a major episode in my wife's formative years that includes this song. I won't bore you with the details, but I almost felt her presence in the room when I recognized the tune. This is not exactly what I'd call Advent music, but it did strike a chord with me today. Thank you for the rendition.

    This is absolutely amazing!! This was one of the first songs I learned to play on the piano and my mom and dad would always request it. This is really tender to me as my dad passed away earlier this year. I needed this song this morning, thank you, pianoguys, for sharing your light and music with the world. ❤

    The nostalgia that really hit me when I was only 2 years old now I'm 17. I was lucky enough to even remember the song and first heard this in a nursery rhymes with a bunch of kids singing the song. Till this day I'm still finding that exact same nursery rhymes.

    I cried all the way through this remembering my mother and I listening to it together at a restaurant that had a mini jukebox at each table. I can still remember the look on her face which matched mine - delight. She played and taught the piano and organ her whole life until Alzheimer's stole her talent. She's in heaven now, as I shared this moment with her memory...

    Aw this brings a lump to my throat to remember an uncle-in-law who was a professional pianist and we met on a family visit many years ago. My daughter was around 3 years old and he played Music Box Dancer for her. He blessed so many people with his talent while he was on this earth. Thank you for this lovely selection.

    Jon, I like what you've done with this piece. I like how you use certain sustained notes as drones and play very much in the style of George Winston. I've loved this song since I was small, and I think your version of it is even better than the original.

    I learned Piano in 2nd grade and this was a song my father always loved. It was one of the first songs I strived to learn, but didn't seem to be very well known.
    Ever since Jon came and played with my high school band, and I had some one on one time chatting with him, I've had a special place in my heart for the Piano Guys!

    I never would have thought of this as a Christmas song either, but I think that's because it became popular in Canada in the summer, and only was released in other countries around December. I always preferred Frank Mills' other hit Peter Piper - thought not a big international success like Music Box Dancer, it did get a lot of play in Canada. Would be fun to hear the Piano Guys take on that one as well.
