Well, for some of you who have commented, I am finally posting my agreement that this is a great assortment of songs to add to your Christmas collection: A Very Special Christmas!This disc, I believe, debuted in 1990. Just a few words on a few tracks.
The album begins with the Pointer Sisters' exhilirating "Santa Claus is Comin to Town." The Eurythmics follow that with a rather techno "Winter Wonderland." Whitney Houston's "Do You Hear What I Hear" breathes a little life into what can often end up being a sleeper on other albums. John Mellencamp gives his distinct style to "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus."
Of course, I have alluded before how much I enjoy Sting's rendition of "Gabriel's Message!" It sounds like it is soaring in the stone arches of a Medieval cathedral.
This album will be a lot of fun, both for the person who likes fresh twists on old songs, as well as the rock fan in your house.
