This is great.
Those "Jew" comments on IG make me roll my eyes, even if they're just jokes or tongue-in-cheek. I'm Jewish, all 4 of my grandparents were Holocaust survivors and I will still sing any damn song I want, including Christmas songs.
I mean, anyone wants to tell Barbara Streisand she shouldn't be singing "The Christmas Song". LOL
I haven’t seen any comments but it is a fact that Adam used to respond to requests/suggestions from fans to record a Xmas song by saying he Had no interest in doing so because he is Jewish... as a matter of fact I am really surprised , and it would be very interesting to know what led him to record this... but whatever it is we got another extraordinary recording! I can only be grateful! This song is not religious mainly about being separated from someone you love over the holidays. I know the word Christmas is used but that's about it. I'm guessing Spotify had some influence in his decision. They seem to be doing everything they can for him and it's part of their holiday collection special. Plus as someone else pointed out his Dad is not Jewish and they celebrate Christmas. Amy transferred his post to her page as well. I think it all factors in, great exposure and I love the song choice. He knocked it out of the park along with everything else lately. Excited for everything to come!🤩

I remember Adam saying he was not interested in recording a Christmas album. That makes sense if he was not interested in putting that much time in it. If he changes his mind one day, it is allowed. But he sang part of O Holy Night on a tv show in Japan once. And this was a Spotify opportunity, given to several artists, so if they/he found a song he wanted to sing and participate then great for him and his ability to make his own choices. It is not a religious song but if he did do one it would be his choice. I'm sure no one would force him. But it is a treat so hopefully fans who want to enjoy it, will enjoy that he recorded it beautifully.

Yes he did say that ,but from what I read some folks wanted him to sing religious songs.. some fans even made his image a xmas tree decoration and sent him religious symbols to wear ... So I can see How Adam might have responded LOL

This song is far from a religious song so that really should be a non issue, right? Adam can sing what he wants. And I'm happy because I just can't get enough of his voice.

Excited for everything to come!🤩 I was really happy to see Amy's post, also as it mellows the rather sad tone of the song for me. Adam will always have a place to go for Christmas (even though he is not celebrating it for religious reasons) and additionally he will have a chance to learn more about pie making Of course this is just a song and Adam is an exceptional singer and quite the pro. Can't believe how much I love this song. I agree, "He knocked it out of the park along with everything else lately"!! Still playing on repeat today...
