I love that holiday classic no matter who sings it, but The Pretenders’ version is one of my favorites probably for many of the same reasons I love “2000 Miles”. The Pretenders would later record another of my beloved holiday hymns when their version of “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” was included on the 1987 charity album A Very Special Christmas. back then, but it did reach #15 in the UK. Hes gone 2000 miles Its very far The snow is falling down Gets colder day by day I miss you The children will sing.

The single never officially charted in the U.S. She is known for Happy Feet (2006), Stealth (2005) and The Living Daylights (1987). Our hearts were singing, It felt like Christmas time. Chrissie Hynde was born on Septemin Akron, Ohio, USA. Whatever the reason, I just know that I love this song and especially so over the holidays. Outside under the purple sky, Diamonds in the snow, Sparkle.

Maybe it is a combination of all those ingredients and more. It felt like Christmastime Two thousand miles 2000 Miles > The Pretenders (1983) (This whole song should be played on a Rickenbacker 12-string or per The Isle of View on an acoustic 12-string - LM). He’ll be back at Christmastime In these frozen and silent nights Here are the lyrics to “2000 Miles” by The Pretenders… He’s gone two thousand miles Maybe it is the simple melody or unassuming lyrics. Maybe it is Chrissie Hynde’s wonderfully haunting vocal. This song always seems to get my emotions stirring for some reason. Anybody who has ever missed anybody can likely identify with this song (though the video is admittedly a little odd).
