There\\u2019s a bittersweet quality to this time of year that made me want to explore the themes of love, lost love and remembering those we have lost.\\u201d\\r\u003cbr\u003e \\r\u003cbr\u003eAs documented on \\u2018The Wave\\u2019, Tom has endured his share of dark times and it was this turbulent period of his life that made him appreciate being able to see Christmas clearly now through his daughter\\u2019s eyes. His voice, one of modern music\\u2019s greatest instruments as evidenced by his incredible Keane catalogue and on last year\\u2019s \\u2018The Wave\\u2019, really suits the reflective nature of these songs.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.
