Merrill Osmond

Inspired by O. Henry's short story about a young bride and groom, each of whom foolishly--but quite lovingly--sacrifices a treasured possession to buy the perfect Christmas gift for their mate.

Recorded live in London, this concert captures The Osmonds performing their greatest hits in a night of nostalgia and high-energy entertainment. Featuring Donny, Marie, and the rest of the family, the show includes timeless favourites such as Love Me for a Reason, Crazy Horses, and Puppy Love. With their signature harmonies, polished stagecraft, and warm rapport with the audience, The Osmonds deliver a performance that celebrates their decades-spanning career and enduring connection with fans.

The Goodmans were a singing Christian-based family who toured the world from the 1990s-early 2000s. On Sunday, December 8, 1996, father Steve Goodman and five of his children were in a car accident that resulted in the death of sons David (age 12) and Peter (age 11) and daughter LeAnne (age 10). They were buried together on December 14. Steve, and daughters Aimee and Andrea were on life support and had various complications, but eventually recovered. The family immediately resumed their worldwide touring with a new mission, to speak of their personal experiences rebuilding their family after the devastation of the accident. On December 20 the following year, the story was aired on TV as a musically charged documentary called Fortress of Love, hosted by Merrill Osmond and with music by Kenneth Cope.

The pop group starred in an animated series that had them touring the world as musical goodwill ambassadors. Each episode featured at least one song.
