He's a gifted musician and his playing of Mozart is near professional. It won't outsell the Beatles or Michael Jackson but, heck, why not?

Does the Pontiff sing the holiday song, "Christmas Is Coming?"

"Christmas is coming,
The geese are getting fat,
Please put a penny

Just asking .......................

*The proceeds will fund musical education for the poor children around
the world.

First things first -
How about feeding, clothing and housing them and their loved ones?
