My Christmas soundtrack
The other day I was in a zakka shop, and there was Christmas music playing, bossa-style guitar with a soft female voice singing in English, Japanese and Portuguese. I instantly identified the singer's distinctive accent as the same as the "I'm Henery the Eighth I Am" cover from the Escalator "Henry" compilation, a cute song I have put on repeat many times.
I asked the shop's staff about it, and sure enough it was the same unit, Naomi & Goro.
I rarely buy Christmas music since it can only be listened to about 1/12 of the year, but this time I couldn't help but give in and get their 2003 Christmas album "Presente de Natal" 
. It contains 6 covers of popular Christmas songs, and also two Brazilian ones and two originals. I think I'll be listening to this a lot for the weeks to come.

I was entranced by that ''Henery the Eighth" track as well. This is really a beautiful album. I haven't been feeling too Christmassy yet - seems like it comes quicker evry year - but this is certainly helping me get in the mood!
