Torben Westergaard: Feliz Navidad

Beyond the usual holiday songs played to death all the time, and the endless gimmicky covers of same, it's too easy to forget the spirit of goodwill intended to be at the center of the season. Trust Torben Westergaard to (thankfully) throw away the tinsel and let that simple sentiment speak for itself... maybe with a dash of Brazilian sunshine to make the good wishes that bit more cheerful.
