About This Song
About "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear" by Sixpence None The Richer
Sixpence None The Richer turn 'It Came Upon a Midnight Clear' into a hushed, dream-pop reverie. The carol's ancient words float over shimmering guitars, as if sung in a snow globe. There's a tension between the song's promised peace and a lingering, wintry loneliness—beautiful, but chilly.
