Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Nobody likes Christmas more than Canadian singer Anne Murray, who first came into the public eye back in 1970 with the million-selling crossover single "Snowbird." Since that time, Murray has recorded three Christmas albums, each soothing, unassuming celebrations of the holiday. For this two-CD collection, Murray has gone back into her own vaults and dusted off some of her personal favorites from past albums and tied them up in tinsel and a big red bow. But she didn't just rely on her existing catalog, instead heading into the studio to record some new material, giving old standards like "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas," "Let It Snow," and a well-chosen medley of children's holiday songs her same straightforward approach. While there are few surprises under this tree, it's nice to have some traditions that you can count on, and Murray's warm heart and steady voice is one of them. Also on board for this sleigh ride is the prestigious London Symphony Orchestra, which is featured on six songs, including "Silent Night," "Away in the Manger," and "Winter Wonderland." --Jaan Uhelszki Customer Reviews

 Rating: - all time favorite Christmas CDThis has been our Christmas CD for years. In fact, we wore the first one out and bought this replacement. Couldn't be happier that it is still available. Super price and delivery also. Rating: - Anne Murray does it again!What a wonderful CD! The entire family enjoyed her music choices and her voice as we listened to this over the Christmas holidays. I wish she would make more. Rating:  - A balanced variety of religious and secular songsThis is a very good Christmas album, though not great (where is "What Child is This?", also known as "Greensleeves", and "The Cherry Tree Carol"?), and I could have lived without "The Santa Medley" (I don't like songs hacked to pieces). I did hear a couple of new songs I had never heard (or even heard of) before--"Christmas in Killarney", a jolly old Irish tune, and "This Season Will Never Grow Old", a song that just sounds like home for the holidays, sitting in front of a glowing hearth, drinking hot cocoa, the melody of carolers and the tolling of church bells adding to the ambiance. I did also like "Sweet Little Jesus Boy" and "Mary`s Little Boy Child", though it seemed more like a gospel hymn than a Christmas song. I also like "Away in ...

Rating: - Gotta Get This Christmas CD!!This is by far one of the greatest Christmas compilations I've bought yet. Anne's rendition of "O Little Town of Bethlehem" still brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it - also, "Silent Night" will put chills up your spine - she makes you feel like your in the church holding a candle in the dark as she stands at the pulpit and you are the only one in the church."O Canada" - We love Anne Murray!! Buy This CD!!! |
