The first time you listen to this disc you will undoubtedly be transported directly back to your childhood. Charles Schulz's Peanuts characters will go toe-tapping and funky-dancing through your mind's eye. Play it a few more times, though (ignoring the dialogue snippets, if you can), and you will begin to truly revel in Guaraldi's wonderful, humorous, deep piano playing. You'll hear why he's such an influence on new age ivory tickler George Winston, but you'll also realize that Winston's holiday music never quite sparkles with the underlying passion, and humor, that twinkles in these grooves. Buy it for the nostalgia--keep it because it will remain one of the most enchanting albums in your holiday collection. --Michael Ruby

A Must-Have Classic.......2007-03-09

Great CD!!! It brought back good memories. A must-have for any lover of Christmas music, the Peanuts gang, or jazz.

You wanna hear some great Jazz music?.......2007-03-09

I recently purchased this CD and I was blown away by it. I am a big fan of Vince Guaraldi and his music always makes me feel great. The sound on the CD is great (no distortion at all). I would whole heartily recommend this CD to anyone who enjoys light Jazz!

GREAT SELLER.......2007-02-07

Would recommend this seller to others. Fast shipment and product as described. Thank you much!

Excellent! A must have!.......2007-01-29

This compilation of Peanuts tunes by the Vince Guaraldi Trio is outstanding. Everytime I play this, I can see all the Peanuts characters in my mind. It is fun to listen to at anytime of the year, and really brings back memories of my youth and watching Charlie Brown during the holidays. Guaraldi and company show their expert musicianship skills on these snazzy jazzy tunes.The holiday season isn't complete without this collection!

A Charlie Brown Christmas.......2007-01-27

The perfect background music for the Christmas season. It has a quality that brings back the memory of the joy of Christmas times past. I can play it multiple times and still want to hear it again.

Selah.......2007-05-14

God has blessed this lovely group in their lives and with their songs, including the CD Rose of Bethlehem representing Jesus' light shinning by the way they worship GOd, as well as all their other CDs. It brings energetic,a calmness,a closeness feeling when Listening to Gods's team singing for him with by his grace and to all his children who which are blessed. Thank you God and Thank you Selah! I love all their music and praises!

Rose of Bethlehem Accompaniment Book.......2007-01-16

Beautiful arrangements, true to their CD. All Selah instrumentalist books are excellent.

The best of all albums (in my opinion).......2007-01-12

I love Selah and I'm really thrilled with this one. Even though it is
based on Christmas, the songs and unusual renditions make it a "must
have".

excellent Christmas.......2007-01-08

lovely Christmas cd. if you like Christmas music, buy it!! if you like selah, buy it!! if you're not sure, buy it!! you'll be glad you did.

Love It All Year Long.......2006-08-20

I own all the Selah albums and this is one of my favorite two. (Bless the Broken Road is my other) I listen to it all year long. It's too great to put away for 11 months of the year. The last three tracks are by far my favorite. With their beautiful vocals and stiring lyrics you get goose bumps in the middle of the summer.

It never snows in the Florida Keys, but as every Parrothead knows, Jimmy Buffett was born on Christmas Day 1946. His Caribbean folk tunes have always had a festive air to them, and his Coral Reefer Band tackle these holiday songs in their usual laidback style. Buffett turns out both traditional carols ("Jingle Bells" with a few tropical ad-libs) and his own myth-building originals ("A Sailor's Christmas," "Merry Christmas, Alabama"). This may not be the traditional Christmas fare of chestnuts roasting on an open fire, but for those who enjoy ocean breezes and "wasting away" to this most successful beach bum, Christmas Island is exactly what the cruise director ordered. --Rob O'Connor

Different and Entertaining.......2007-01-22

Although Jimmy Buffet is not the greatest singer, he does know how to pick, write, and "put across" hits. CHRISTMAS ISLAND is one of those RARE albums that a listener enjoys from note one to note last.

It's also nice to hear a UNIQUE Christmas album for a change. I don't understand why this C.D. wasn't/isn't more popular than it is!

I'm a Jimmy Buffet fan!.......2007-01-20

Being a Buffet fan I enjoy all the tracks on this CD. It has a nice island atmosphere to the songs and is well worth picking up!

wonderful CD.......2007-01-04

Being a big Jimmy Buffett fan, it would be rare for me to rate anything of his less than 4. Even for non Buffett fans, or new fans, this CD is fun, different and entertaining. It has a good mix of funny songs, more traditional songs and just good ol' Jimmy flavor. I recommend it.

I give it a 3 because I bought it for just one song.......2006-12-16

I tend to do that...like one song and ignore the rest. And the same is true here. But for the price I guess I can't knock it. I've played the same tune over and over for the past several days and now it's time to put it away for next year.

Christmas all year long.......2006-03-23

Great covers of holiday music in Buffett style. Some of which are only available with this cd. Worth the addition to any Buffett or Christmas music collector.

Try to forget the fact that Bing Crosby probably never had to record another song in his life after he immortalized "White Christmas." If you can do that, you'll find plenty more to like in this crooning Christmas collection. There's the Romantic Bing, charming the tinsel right off the tree with "The Christmas Song," and that cure for cabin fever, "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" There's the Reverent Bing, solemnly singing "Adeste Fideles." And of course, there's Bing the Showman, belting out "Good King Wenceslas" with a bit of that ole vaudeville shine. But no matter what you're told, "White Christmas" will be the number one reason for sticking this one in your stocking. And who can blame you? It's as timeless now as it was way back when. --Steve Gdula

IS THERE ANY DOUBT?.......2007-07-21

THIS HAS TO BE THE BEST XMAS ALBUM OF ALL TIME. I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S THE TOP SELLING ONE. AND IT SELLS MORE EVERY YEAR!!!

A Classic........2007-07-06

This may be the most classic Christmas CD of all time. If you aren't familiar with it, you must have been under a rock for the last 50 years. If you don't like it, you should probably go crawl under a rock for the next 50 years.

Nostalgic and Timeless..........2007-03-02

I bought this for my mom, who grew up listening to my grandmother's vinyl White Christmas album... This is wonderful Christmas music that is warm, and fun, and timeless.

Same Old, Same Old.......2007-01-18

This is just a reissue of the old MERRY CHRISTMAS album that was available since the mid-50s. The title's been changed, but the playing order is the same and the incorrect versions of two of Bing's Christmas hits are the same. "Silent Night" was a hit in 1935, yet its a much later recording that appears here. "White Christmas" first charted in 1942, yet the version here is the 1947 re-recording. "Faith of Our Fathers" isn't even a Christmas song! There's a better, 44-track collection of Bing's Christmas recordings for Decca that includes the correct versions of the hits as well as the remakes and excludes "Faith of Our Fathers." It's called THE VOICE OF CHRISTMAS and is available here: [...]

It's almost impossible to believe it didn't already exist, but now that it does, you can bet the sure-to-go-platinum These Are Special Times will turn up under many a Christmas tree this year (the perfect gift for the person who has everything?). The prolific princess of pop has thrown together a mixture of contemporary and traditional holiday favorites, bordering on too-cute and kitschy only on the intro to "Feliz Navidad." For many, Dion is an acquired taste, but even naysayers may enjoy her rare moments of restraint on a smoky version of "Blue Christmas." "The Prayer," a duet with Andrea Bocelli, is set to become this season's "Time to Say Goodbye," but it will have to battle it out with the R. Kelly duet, "I'm Your Angel," first. --Rebecca Wallwork

A Must Have Christmas Album .......2006-12-06

When I got this CD from my friend as a birthday present, I was feeling a bit sceptical. But after hearing the opening track which is O Holy Night, oh my god, this version is the best version of the song ever and l fell in love with this album.
I will break down the review for each track.
1. O Holy Night - The best redention of the song ever. She sings it powerfully and full of emotion. You will be blown away. No one can outdone Celine's O Holy Night.
2.Don't Save It All for Christmas Day - This song was written by Celine. This song reminds us to give or show love to everyone everyday. Clay Aiken even covered this song on his Christmas Album.
3. Blue Christmas - This song shows a jazzy side of Celine. Smoky, mellow Christmas song, you will love it. Diana Krall on piano; you can't go wrong :)
4. Another Year Has Gone By - Laid back, a relaxing song. Bryan Adams wrote this song.
5. The Magic of Christmas Day - uptempo catchy Christmas song done by Celine. I like the 'Christmas Eve' - track 11 better though.
6. Ave Maria - It is heavenly sung and powerful. I don't particularly care about this song too much.
7. Adeste Fideles (O Come All Ye Faithful) - Beautiful and churcy with chruch organ and choir.
8. The Christmas Song - A nice soothing christmas song to warm up your Christmas spirit.
9. The Prayer - This song has a nice lyric and full of meaning, making us believe in angels
10. Brahm' Lullaby - A lullaby song good for sleeping. :)
11. Christmas Eve - This is one of the best new songs in the album. This song reminds me of MAriah Carey's All I Want For Christmas For You. It's upbeat and catchy, making you want to go out and have fun on Christmas eve.
12. These Are The Special Times - a well done song written by Diane Warren. Christina Aguilera did a cover of this song for her Christmas album. But Celine's version is much better than her.
13. Happy Xmas (War is Over) - I love this song since it has a peace message for everyone and she did a fantastic cover of John & Yoko'. I also like the cover sung by Sarah McLachlan.
14. I'm Your Angel - It used to be my favorite song. This song was no.1 on the billboard chart for a couple weeks.
15.Feliz Navidad - Celine with Family wishing us Xmas.
16. Les Cloches Du Hameau - it's so so, this track is my least favorite.

In conclusion, if you like a well professionally arranged Christmas album (David Foster produced some of the songs) you should definetely be getting this album. Also this album makes a perfect gift for Christmas gift to everyone celebrating Christmas.
Pairs this album with Mariah Carey's Merry Christmas and Sarah McLachlan's WinterSong, you are going to have a Christmas Blast.

Nice, but not a classic..........2006-11-09

Album in a nutshell: Celine Dion presents an unusual Christmas collection that is not up to her usual standards. All the original songs are great, the covers of Christmas songs are pretty good, but some of the songs don't belong. I know Celine wants to include a French Christmas song on here, but "Les Cloches Du Hameau" is kind of annoying, as is her rendition of "Feliz Navidad." "O Come All Ye Faithful" is too high church sounding and she tries too much to sound like a female Elvis on "Blue Christmas." And someone please tell me what the hell "Brahms Lullaby" is doing on this album! But she redeems herself with exceptional originals, a nice cover of "The Christmas Song," and a beautiful rendition of "O Holy Night." A pretty nice offering, but I expected better from Celine.

Best Song: "Another Year Has Gone By"

Christmas traditionals / Total tracks: 7/16

Sample This: The fun "Christmas Eve" and the seasonally uplifting "The Magic of Christmas Day"

What to Avoid: sad family renditions of "Feliz Navidad" and "Les Cloches Du Hameau" (she could have included her family on better songs) and
the sappy, out-of-place "Brahms' Lullaby"

The album in 2 words: mixed bag

Stocking Stuffer or under-the-tree: stocking stuffer

One of Celine's best albums to be enjoyed any time of year..........2006-07-20

Celine Dion's Christmas album "These Are Special Times" has a little bit of everything from traditional holiday favorites like "Oh Holy Night", "Ave Maria", and "O Come All Ye Faithful", to Christmas "pop" classics including Elvis Presley's "Blue Christmas", John Lennon and Yoko Ono's "Happy Xmas", Nat King Cole's "The Christmas Song", and Jose Feliciano's "Feliz Navidad". Also included in this collection is her huge hit with R. Kelly "I'm Your Angel."

The songs on this album are very good and well performed, and this CD contains well over an hour's worth of Christmas music. You are indeed getting your money's worth here! Celine and her family (who also sing on the album's last two tracks) really throw their heart and soul into this album.

Any fan of Celine's music will absolutely love this Christmas CD to be enjoyed year round!

O My Lord!!!!!!!!!.......2006-04-11

This album is what christmas is all about. And I can't stop listening to O Holy Night it is the best arragement of all and Ave Maria is another great arrangement. But on O Holy Night at the end she gave it her most powerful ending anyone has ever done nothing can top it, when I first heard it it I had great tears of joy I felt as if I was being lifted of the ground through out this song. Its worth the trouble to buy.

Beautiful music!!!.......2006-03-23

Awesome...simply awesome!!
I got this cd last week when my friend from Bangalore (India) sent me as she knew that i am a great fan of Celine and as i live in a small town, i don't get international music here.
The first time i listened to this cd, it left me astonished. Even though this is not Christmas now, the cd brought December in March.As a 19 yr old, i love listening to a variety of music ( Imagine me listening to Celine Dion ) but i happen to like this cd a lot along with other Celine Dion albums except The Collector's Series (i feel that cd is incomplete).
The songs r superb here especially Adeste Fidelis, Another Year Has Gone By, The Magic of Christmas Day, The Prayer and Happy X'mas...( I am sure John Lenon is pretty proud of Celine for doing his song proud ).
The title track is good too(Even Christina did a cover of this song).
Well, this cd has just been declared 5X platinum being the second best selling Christmas album in the US....Really not very surprising after u give this cd a spin and worldwide sales is over 16 million...GREAT...GREAT....GREAT.
Keep it up Celine. Go get it people, buy it for yourself, gift it to your loved ones and everybody else.This will be the best Christmas gift ever to someone by you.

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

Great cd, have the original on record & couldn't find it anywhere in Oz on cd. Not your traditional boring christmas carols - love it!

Rock'n Christmas.......2007-01-19

If you luv Xmas, but you are a little sick of hearing the same old 40's & 50's sounding carols & songs and you wish xmas would ROCK, just a little, then this is the CD for you!!!!
I luv it, I have heard these songs played on the radio and thought
"Where can i get a copy of these tracks!".
Well here they are, in 1 neat little package.
Merry Rockn Xmas Next Year!

Not worth buying.......2007-01-19

I bought the cd for my sister, because it was the only recording I could find of this particular Sting song that she loved. It turned out she already had the cd, and said the ONLY good song on the cd was his song. Therefore I took it back to another store, as I didn't want it either. Too much discordant, and rap type music, she said.

Worst online experience ever.......2007-01-18

Hermanstreet is lame and I would never, even with my life hanging in the balance, order from them again.

I e-mailed several times (3)inquiring about my order and not once received an e-mail back. Worst online experience ever, this coming from someone who does the majority of their shopping and all their bill pay online.

Rocking Christmas.......2007-01-15

This is a good Christmas CD for people who are tired of the usual same-old-same-old. It features Mellencamp and the Eurythmics among others. It's really good and I highly recommend it.

I loved this movie when I was a kid, now it's my daughter's favorite! Timeless, sweet songs.

Made me cry........2007-01-17

I grew up with this movie and hearing the songs brought back the awesome childhood memories. "One little star" and "I'm so blue" brought tears to my eyes. "Upside down world" on the other hand cracked me up. I didn't think about it much when I was little, but when Ernie and Bert flew that airplane upside down I don't think they realized that they were asking for certain death. lol

The only downside is there are monologues for a lot of the songs and I'm not really into that kind of thing. Plus the "One Little Star" song starts one minute into the track.

I loves it.......2007-01-13

I may be 18 now but I grew up on this movie and the soundtrack is a great addition to any cd library

Music for All Ages.......2006-10-19

You don't have to be five years old to enjoy this kind of music. This CD appeals to every person of any age. Kids and adults alike will get a kick out of listening to this amazing soundtrack from the equally amazing movie. Every song is perfectly appropriate, and you'll be happy to know that none of these songs are too babyish either.

Probably the best song on the whole soundtrack is "Easy Goin' Day". Very catchy tune, with catchy and yet squeaky-clean lyrics. Not every song on the soundtrack is happy, though. The song "I'm So Blue" is enough to make anybody want to cry. Altogether, the CD has just the right balance of happiness and sorrow.

Make sure you check this CD out sometime. You'll be glad you did.

I love that bird.......2005-06-12

I had this album on cassette when I was younger, my mom gave it away about 18 years ago, but I still remember all the words to all the songs. Once in a while one will come back to me and I'll start singing out loud. No one else seems to remember them! I bought the cd to prove I'm not crazy.

Toby Keith's got a big heart, judging by the songs he's written and the songs he's chosen to sing on Christmas to Christmas. Many show concern for the homeless ("Santa I'm Right Here") or disdain for the crass commercialization of the season--told through the voice of a small girl ("Jesus Gets Jealous of Santa Claus")--and other timely sentiments. Trouble is, Keith's not a great songwriter (although he's not bad storyteller). What adds to his shortcomings as a wordsmith are his melody lines, which generally sound punch pressed from that crass commercialized Nashville mold. Keith fans will enjoy the selections, however, and nearly anyone can appreciate the fact that he chose not to make a record of the same tired old standards played in the tired old contemporary-country way. --Martin Keller

Find a place to purchase the two or three worthwhile songs.......2007-01-12

Like a lot of Christmas albums released by "flavor of the month" entertainers, this disc really only contains two or three songs that stand out, the rest, not so hot. A real Toby Keith fan might disagree, but then again a real Toby Keith fan is probably not a Christmas music shopper. I'd recommend Santa I'm Right Here, Santa's Gonna Take It All Back, and a couple others, but that's hardly worth the price of the full disc.

THE BEST CHRISTMAS DVD YOU CAN BUY.......2007-01-09

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS VERSION OF "THE CHRISTMAS CAROL"...GEORGE C SCOTT IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SCROOGE...YOU MUST HAVE THIS DVD IN YOUR CHRISTMAS COLLECTION

The best, most original Christmas album!.......2006-12-03

I just bought this album just this year. I have thoroughly enjoyed it. My thirteen-year-old daughter loves "Hot Rod Sleigh" which is a really great up-beat original Christmas song written by Toby himself. As a hopeless romantic I love "Blame It On The Mistletoe", "The Night Before Christmas", and "All I Want For Christmas". Toby also has some really great Christian Christmas music on this album. "Jesus Gets Jealous of Santa Claus" (written by Keith Urban), "Mary, It's Christmas", and "What Made the Baby Cry"- all superb songs by any standard....especially mine. There are also songs on this album that will make bring a smile to your face such as "Christmas Rock" and "Santa's Gonna Take It All Back"... so as you can plainly see there is a little something for everyone on this album.

If you are tired of the same old Christmas songs being remade over and over, and would like a completely original album then I highly recommend this album.

Keith Urban Song on Album.......2006-12-01

Keith Urban and Vernon Rust wrote "Jesus Gets Jealous of Santa Claus", a great song on this wonderful Toby Keith Christmas. Very original, and Toby pens such great songs himself on this album.

TUBY THE REDNECK RAINDEER........2003-11-27

If you are not a fan of TUBY then you'll totally not enjoy this poorly conceived product.

TUB does not master the vocal range, quality or style to pull off a successful country flavored holiday CD package as did MARTINA, KENNY, GARTH, REBA, ANNE MURRAY or VINCE GILL. This is unfortunately a total waste of your money.

Amazon.com

The follow up to the original, this collection in many ways surpasses the initial effort. Duets seem to rule here, with Cyndi Lauper and Frank Sinatra double teaming on "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," while the irrepressible Ronnie Spector shares the mic with Darlene Love for a resplendent "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," and Heart's Ann and Nancy Wilson give "Blue Christmas" a steamy and sizzling once-over. Vanessa Williams stops the disc, though, with her simple yet stunning rendition of "What Child Is This." The then-sign-of-the-times inclusion, Michael Bolton, offers a forgettable "White Christmas," but it's the only real clunker in the bunch. Always just a tad too country to make it as a cross-over artist, Randy Travis still makes "Jingle Bell Rock" his own in his smooth way. --Steve Gdula

Customer Reviews:

It was pretty good........2007-01-17

The tract 3(Roasting on an open fire), tract 10(The White Christmas-by Michael Boton) and 15 (Sleigh ride- by Debby Gibson) were my favorites. It was pretty ggod, actually.

Welcome New Additions.......2007-01-09

The new songs in this cd are great additions to the long list of popular Christmas songs. These tracks will endure like the rest of the good ones, and it's well worth getting for your Christmas collection!

It's ok........2007-01-03

I thought that I would love this series of music cd's, but I was wrong.
You get one of two great songs, and the rest are no good.

12. Extreme

9. Ronnie Spector

There should be something for everyone. Rock to Country to Rap...

I want a Rickenbacker guitar.......2004-12-09

This album is good, but it isn't quite the classic that the first Very Special Christmas is. The highlight is definitely the opening song by Tom Petty. The rest of the album is somewhat uneven. While there are some fine performances by the likes of Sinead O'Conner, Ronnie Spector and Darlene Love, there are also a few lame performances by people like Jon Bon Jovi, Michael Bolton and Extreme. One of the oddities here is a "duet" between Frank Sinatra and Cyndi Lauper. They actually just used an old vocal by Frank from 1947 and added Cyndi's voice to it. In an interesting side note, they originally tried to have Paula Adbul do the duet, but she was unable to hit the right notes. The only artist here that is repeated from the the first Very Special Christmas is Run-D.M.C., but the song they do here is far inferior to the classic "Christmas in Hollis". Overall it's a decent Christmas album, and if you are a fan of the performers featured on it, I would recommend it.

Customer Reviews:

"3 Kings" is 1 of a kind.......2007-01-21

In the interest of full disclosure, you should know this is the third time I have purchased We Three Kings since it was first released 17 years ago. The others were lost in various moves. I just couldn't endure another Christmas without it. If you listen to no other cuts, make sure you hear "The Holly and the Ivy" and the title song; you will never hear these traditional favorites again without thinking of this version. Another gem: "Star of Wonder", written by Terre Roche and the companion piece to "We Three Kings" Oh, one more disclosure: Now that I have my latest copy of 3 Kings, I can resume listening to it year-round as in years past. After you've heard it, I think you'll know why.

The Roche Sisters.......2007-01-19

These sisters are amazing! Their harmonizing is beautiful. They can take a song and without background music sound like a full chorus.

we three kings.......2007-01-16

I have bought this CD countless times over the years for friends and family. It is one of the best Christmas collections out there. The songs are varied but all really delightful.

Great harmonies, fresh sound.......2007-01-15

Love these sisters and their Christmas CD. Their harmonies sound simple and complex at the same time and they blend beautifully. Their voices are unpretentious and direct. The cuts are a mix of fresh interpretations of the classics and fun silly pieces that make you smile. Am interested in exploring other CDs by The Roches.

The Roches do Christmas from sacred to silly.......2007-01-10

This is the best album of Christmas music I know of. These ladies sing beautiful harmonies and they have a talent for unique arrangements that work well. Close your eyes while listening to the title song and you'll find yourself in a caravan crossing the desert. If you've been amused by their famous rendition of the Hallelujah chorus from "Messiah", wait until you hear their version of "For Unto Us a Child is Born." This album is a treat from beginning to end. I buy several copies every year to give away.
