Jim Caruso's 12 Days of Christmas... Becca Ayers Makes a Simple Wish on Day 2

We've all seen Becca Ayers on Broadway in Addams Family, South Pacific, Les Miserables and Avenue Q. She's a kickass singer, fabulous actress and very handy with a puppet. But did you know she writes great folky-poppy tunes? "Simple Wish" is a witty, charming and slightly bitter ode to the search for holiday love!
