Bottom line, a CD with variety, studio and live cuts, mostly holiday tunes and a couple not holiday related. But she can still belt it out, as she proves every year on David Letterman's show. Of course she's not going to sound the same as she did in 1963 - nobody is.
While I like the overall music and such, they should have called this "A Very Special Christmas Live 2" since several, if not most of the cuts are live. KingLittle Red Rooster - Tom PettySilent Night - Stevie NicksWhite Christmas - Darlene LoveStevie's live version of Silent Night is quite good. I got this CD when it first came out in 2001.
I don't know why people are knocking Darlene Love's White Christmas, which is a studio cut. Plus the proceeds go to Special Olympics, so you do a good deed if you get this. In most cases, the result is good to fantastic.
My favorite songs are:This Christmas - Macy GrayBlue Christmas - Jon Bon JoviRun Rudolph Run - Sheryl CrowBack Door Santa - John Popper & B.B.
thanks so much. I ordered this at the last minute for a Christmas gift and it came in plenty of time and in great shape.
Thank you Stevie Nicks singing Silent Night is the best I have every hurd the arrangement was beautiful.
Very enjoyable cd for all. Although the entire cd is very enjoyable, Bon Jovi does a great interpretation of Elvis with "Blue Christmas".
I have the classic christmas artists versions as well, so it is nice to mix it up a bit. The rest of the CD is fun and enjoyable. I guess you must be young enough to enjoy the newer artists. No this isn't the greatest CD ever made, but there are many really excellent tracks performed by some of my favorite artists. Put all my Christmas CD's in my 200 disc changer on random. That track alone is worth buying the whole disc. If you are a fan of Natalie Merchant than this CD is a must have. The rock version of the Chipmunk Song is also very cool.
