A Very Special Christmas

November 11, 2008

When was the last time you heard collard greens being sung about in a Christmas song? Probably never, unless you’re a Run DMC fan, or were wise enough to hop on the Very Special Christmas tip. The rappers’ contribution to this benefit collection is probably the highlight, although traditional songs covered by now-traditional artists like the Pretenders (”Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”) provide the majority of the material here. Eurythmics turn in a suitably chilly “Winter Wonderland,” Stevie Nicks sings a beautifully haunting “Silent Night,” and Whitney Houston proves again that she’s every woman with “Do You Hear What I Hear”–that is, every woman with a voice strong enough to do the song justice. “Santa Baby,” Madonna’s contribution, isn’t as sultry as it could be, but there’s more fun thanks to hell-on-heels, the Pointer Sisters and Bon Jovi. –Steve Gdula
Customer Review: A VERY SPECIAL CHRISTMAS
I REALLY PURCHASED THIS CD SPECIFICALLY FOR STEVIE NICKS RENDITION OF SILENT NIGHT WHICH I THINK IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL OTHERWISE, THE REMAINDER OF THE CD IS QUITE NICE
Customer Review: Very Enjoyable Christmas Music
I really enjoyed this CD over the Christmas Holidays. It features all the original artists. I especially enjoyed Santa Baby by Madonna. I have heard other versions that I don’t like as well. When I ordered it I didn’t expect it so soon. It came within a week. Great Service. Buy from here…
