• In this romantic duet between Ingrid Michaelson and Jason Mraz, the singers take the old adage "home is where the heart is" to heart, telling each other that "love is wherever you are." Of course, there's no real-life passion between the pair, but Michaelson knew her old "Christmas Valentine" duet partner had the perfect voice for the job.
  
  "He's just the dreamiest," Michaelson told Songfacts in a 2024 interview. "I was like, 'This would be such a great duet with someone whose voice is as smooth as silk.' And of course, the first person I think of is Jason. I texted him and said, 'I know that we just did a song together not too long ago, so feel free...' And he said, 'I wanna do it!' I was like, 'You're so sweet. You're just a nice human.' He is that person that you think he is. We sent him the tracks, and he recorded and sent them back. It's a sweet, easy song, so it was done relatively quickly. He's a really kind, giving soul, and I love his voice and how soothing it is. It feels nostalgic to me."
• Michaelson wrote this with LA songwriters Nicole Cohen aka KOLE and Juan Ariza for her 10th studio album, a collection of traditional pop-inspired tunes titled For The Dreamers. The singer was in a nostalgic frame of mind after composing songs for the 2024 Broadway musical The Notebook for the past seven years, and it influenced the way she wrote for the album.
  
  "Structurally, and with the certain chords I was playing that I might not have written for earlier work, that kind of harkens back to this older sound," she explained.
