On my musical travels I trip over great but unknown songs fairly regularly, but I'm absolutely jaw on the floor about this one, "Where Heaven Is" by Geoffrey O'Hara. Sublime would be an understatement. You ARE going to be hearing this!

Dianne and Chris were amazing, but I cannot STAND hearing "You'll Never Walk Alone" done that way.
