This album is the must-have Christmas album of the year!
Stand-out tracks on this CD include: 'The First Noel' - Whitney Houston's soothing voice does this gentle track justice, the traditional favourite 'The Christmas Song' with its laid back, easy listening feel, 'One Wish', which is an excellent ballad, and finally my personal favourite 'Deck The Halls/Silent Night' which has been given an upbeat feel that works really well - I could certainly see this song being played at a few Christmas Parties!

This album was released in 2003 but has some tracks from 1996. I am a fan of Whitney and bought this after her death to add to my xmas collection. I was very disappointed that her voice had obviously suffered from the drug abuse following her relationship with Brown. She has lost part of the vocal range she had at the start of her career, her range sounds 'compressed'. There is some colouring in her voice that detracts from the enjoyment of most of the songs. The album also sounds over engineered to try and compensate for the deterioration in her voice.
I wish she had recorded this album 10 years earlier. Very disappointed.

Whitney's voice is a rain of diamonds! She takes the songs and fly them to the moon and back! I absolutely recommend this album to anyone who wants to hear and feel the greatest time of year through the greatest voice of all time!
