I'm going to be daring and suggest that the original Darlene Love cut of that song is superior.
Unfortunately, it's tough to find a decent recording of it.

LOS ANGELES (Dec. 16) - Singer-songwriter Dan Fogelberg, famed for the soaring vocals and elegant instrumentation of tunes such as "Longer" and "A Love Like This," died on Sunday, three years after being diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. He was 56.
"He fought a brave battle with cancer and died peacefully at home in Maine with his wife Jean at his side," said a posting on his Web site (http://www.danfogelberg.com).
"His strength, dignity and grace in the face of the daunting challenges of this disease were an inspiration to all who knew him."
Fogelberg, a native of Peoria, Illinois, broke into the music industry in the early 1970s, at a time when it was embracing introspective songwriting, or "soft rock," by such acts as the Eagles and America.
Fogelberg, who distinguished himself with his angelic vocals and lyrics that celebrated beauty and romance, hit his commercial and creative peak in 1981 with "The Innocent Age," which yielded three top-10 singles, "Hard to Say," "Same Old Lang Syne" and "Leader of the Band."
His most recent release, "Full Circle," came out in 2003. The following year, he revealed that he had been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer, and urged men over the age of 50 to get tested for the disease.

corianderstem said:Is it? The album is still in print. "A Christmas Gift For You." And yes, produced by Phil Spector.

Yes, I knew that... I meant that it is difficult to find a decent digital version of it (> 128 kbps) that is... umm... free. The original song is not even on iTunes, at least in Canada.

I don't really, either, but once I get overwhelmed by the season I start singing them and can't stop.
When I was a kid, I absolutely loved this album:
