Jim Bickman在1997年推出首张圣诞专集《THE GIFT》，不但获得惊人的成功，也夺下了BILLBOARD1997年圣诞节日专辑排行冠军。作为New Age最重要的作曲家及钢琴家之一，Jim Brickman(金.布来克曼)的钢琴音乐自有其独特之处。听他的琴声，你会感受到如水般的魅惑，他的琴音，轻爽而柔软，仿佛，来自内心最深处的那种柔媚。
这张专辑《The Gift》(礼物)中，无论是Collin Raye和Susan Ashton 的浑然天成，还是“Starbright”中Kenny Loggins那低沉嗓音的魅惑人心，都被钢琴声衬托得堪称完美。
《The Gift》歌词
winter snow is falling down
children laughing all around
lights are turning on
like a fairy tale come true
sitting by the fire we made
you're the answer when i prayed
i would find someone
and baby i found you
all i want is to hold you forever
all i need is you more every day
Brickman Jim
you saved my heart
from being broken apart
you gave your love away
and i'm thankful every day
for the gift
watching as you softly sleep
what i'd give if i could keep
just this moment
if only time stood still
but the colors fade away
and the years will make us grey
but baby in my eyes
you'll still be beautiful
all i want is to hold you forever
all i need is you more every day
you saved my heart
from being broken apart
you gave your love away
and i'm thankful every day
for the gift
(instrumental)
all i want is to hold you forever
all i need is you more every day
you saved my heart
from being broken apart
you gave your love away
i can't find the words to say
that i'm thankful every day
for the gift
