 Wonderful Holiday CD October 10, 2007

Celine is one of the few people who can successfully pull off a holiday album. This is a wonderful album for the holiday season, and while it leans mostly towards the Christmas holiday, it also features wonderful classics like "Ave Maria" and "Brahms' Lullaby."
This is worth the buy.

This is just an amazing gift an artist could give. The songs are amazing and just so greatly sung. From the powerful Oh Holly Night, to the softest Another Year Has Gone By, all the songs tell a story and magically takes to that amazing place where Xmas has always a perfect or blue felling.
Her voice is just at that perfect point, and now we get to see and listen at the same time. This network special is just one of the best, she looks amazing as always, and features 2 great artists the amazing tenor Andrea Bocelli and the actress/ entertainer/ singer-to-be Rosie O'Donnel...
Celine's flawless and it is certainly an amazing item to your music library or to your collection!!!
An edition to buy for sure!!!
Worth it for "O' Holy Night' alone October 29, 2007

I am simply in awe of her talent. Her voice is ridiculously perfect and this album is stunning. Her version of O' Holy Night gets me speechless every time I hear it. I get literal chills. Its the best version I have ever heard. BTW, Josh Grobin arranged his version almost identically, but even his doesn't come close to her's. Ave Maria is quite beautiful as well. I even love her version of Blue Christmas. It is a MUST for poeple who love Christmas music.
Still The Best Christmas Album Out There!! December 7, 2007

I got this album when it first came out and have bought many different Christmas albums since. Whenever I buy a new Christmas album my first thought is "Will it be better then Celine's?" The answer is always no. Some albums do come close. Josh Groban's new one Noel was wonderful. Sara Mclachlan's was breathtaking and Jana's was beautiful and unique..but it wasn't the same. Celine's voice has the power to make you feel these songs like no one else can. Every single song on the album is amazing! There is no fillers here. Plus about half the songs were new and written the year it came out. Very rare when most Christmas albums now have mostly covers and a couple of new ones. I don't think there will ever be another Christmas album that can top this. Unless Celine decides to record a new Christmas album. :D
