The piece was written by George Michael and here is offered in a new dance mode. Between the list of the singers are also the Wham! with a little but successful remix. Between the other vesions they detach that one of the Rap All Stars, excessive "yo! yo!", but discreet in its kind; excessive and boring the "Acoustic Version" of Jamelia (absolutely outside place in this compilation) therefore not too impressed.

Echoes Of Christmas

George Feyer
Audio CD: FDO 1955-04-09
Label: Vox
"This is my oldest record. I believe this record dates from some 50+ years ago. It's George Feyer's "Echoes Of Christmas" (Vox VX 25010, 1955). Download it and you will really be amazed. It's twinkly, cocktail lounge piano music, and it all runs together. So you're getting two tracks, side one and side two. I didn't know what to expect when I got this, but I really loved that cover. Turns out that George Feyer made a whole series of albums through his career, all called Echoes Of something. It makes great background music, or if you happen to own a shop, you're going to love it!

"Christmas Around The World"

Andre Rieu
Audio CD: FDO 2006-10-31
Label: Denon Records
"Andre Rieu is a beloved star in continental Europe and thanks to Public Television, he's become a household name in the United States as well. He seems to have a variety of fans from straight classical lovers to pop music lovers and all sorts of fans in between. The reason for his appeal is easy. He's a great musician and knows a thing or two about showmanship and it seems to have an appeal. He combines the world of classical music, opera, Broadway, and pop culture and comes up with an entertaining blend of music not all that unlike his idol, Johann Strauss who did similar musical tricks in his day. My guess is that this will be a popular selection this holiday season and in the years to come. Since Rieu is true to tradition while having a contemporary appeal, Rieu's Christmas music could be regarded like the Christmas collections by the Boston Pops under the direction of Arthur Fielder and become as familiar as some of these classic arrangements.

"A Christmas Guitar (20 Festive Favourites)"

Various Artists
Audio CD: FDO 2004-10-28
Label: Woodnight
"If all Christmas music was this good, we wouldn't hate listening to it in the streets in October! The artist's talent on the acoustic guitar is genuinely inspiring. His arrangement of the "O Holy Night" is breathtaking. But don't expect to sing along to the old chestnuts -- the arrangements are updated and often much faster than the traditional scores. This CD is meant solely for the love of the music. I enoyed this CD so much last Christmas that I gave it as a gift to everyone this Christmas. Truly exceptional talent.

"The Christmas Collection"

Frank Sinatra
Audio CD: FDO 2004-10-26
Label: Reprise
"Talk about your gifts of Christmas past, "The Christmas Collection" is a must-have for any Sinatra-phile, right down to its family photos and one priceless shot of Sinatra swinging a golf club next to the tree wearing a Santa suit! Complete with four previously unreleased tracks (some from live TV specials) -- including two with Bing Crosby ("The Christmas Song" and "White Christmas"), the 18-song collection surveys Sinatra's holiday output and its effects are often chilling. Listening to him glide soulfully through Jimmy Webb's melancholy but romantic "What Ever Happened to Christmas?" or hearing him do his immaculate phrasing on "Silent Night" when he was visibly frail and aging in 1991 are close encounters of a Sinatra kind that are rarely captured on one album. There's also a delightful "The Twelve Days of Christmas" sung with his kids Nancy and Frank, Jr., from their 1969 record The Sinatra Family Wish You A Merry Christmas and insightful and intimate liner notes by James Ritz, not to mention those magical orchestral arrangements. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"Christmas With Dino"

Dean Martin
Audio CD: FDO 2004-09-21
Label: Capitol / EMI Records
"Although high-living Rat Packer Dean Martin may not be the first figure one associates with the holidays, the entertainer's place in American iconography is fixed, making a Christmas record as natural as spiked eggnog and lingering under the mistletoe. "Christmas With Dino" is compiled from two earlier Martin Christmas albums (a 1953 single entitled "The Christmas Blues", the set's earliest recording, is also here). Though there are alternate versions of some songs--"White Christmas" and "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" are included in their 1959 and 1966 renditions--the record moves along with the panache and swing one expects from Dino. The arrangements are nicely balanced between big-band swing ("I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm") and string-sweetened mainstream fare ("Silver Bells"), keeping the vibe hip and traditional at once. (The choir on Martin's version of "Silent Night" adds just the right touch of reverence to the swinging fireside antics elsewhere.) Naturally, Martin's mellow, off-the-cuff singing style is paramount throughout, and his suave, dinner-jacket approach blends comfortably with the warm atmosphere of Christmas. With its swing and nostalgia factors (Martin's performances evoke a bygone American era), "Christmas With Dino" makes a great soundtrack for finger-snapping holiday fun.

"SuperStar Christmas"

Various Artists
Audio CD: FDO 2003-10-14
Label: Sony Music Media
"CD compliations for charity are often ho-humm, it seems that producers just ask for songs record companies/artist can spare and release it. But, this CD is something else. Most (not all) of the songs are great interpretation of Christmas classics and almost all have great sound. Personal favorites are Boys II Men's "Silent Night", Tony Benett's "Winter Wonderland", and Luther Vandross "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas". However, the cut above every song is not really a Christmas song but Barbra Streisand's 60's rendition of "Our Father". Too bad the audio of the "Lord's Prayer" isn't really "good" but the song, the arrangement and Barbra's voice will make up for it. If you're just going to buy one Christmas CD, buy this one - and help at the same time... Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"It's a pleasure to hear the original recordings from the 60's re-mastered. Recorded in 1965. Originally released as Merry Christmas on Motown. Florence Ballard’s re-edition of "Silent Night" is awesome. Where has this treasure been all these years? I recently heard another Christmas song sung by Ballard...."O Holy Night" another awesome treasure. Why this wasn't included with this collection is really unknown. Maybe there are more unreleased songs by Ballard, Wilson or Ross. The fact is that this collection is a must for everyone. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"Christmas With Demis Roussos"

Demis Roussos
Audio CD: FDO 2003-11-10
Label: Disky
"Ok, so a Christmas Album may not seem that novel an idea, but when you stop and consider it, very few artists make christmas albums these days, let alone one that is really good. As well as timeless classics such as "Silent Night", "White Christmas" and "Merry Christmas Baby", they have also written some new Christmas songs which is a feat for ones so young. They have jazzed up all the old classics and put the Demis Roussos trademark on them. This is a very rare occurence in Christmas CDs which should be given a listen. Demis is one of the biggest stars in the world. I have several Demis Roussos CD's and recently purchased this one. It most certainly puts you in the spirit of Christmas.

"Christmas Hits - 50 Festive Favourites" - CD_02

Various Artists
Audio CD: FDO 2003-11-24
Label: Bmg TV
"The second disc of Christmas Hits is more laid back, with classics from Bing Crosby, Elvis and Tony Bennett mingled with some soulful covers of traditional songs like "Silent Night" and modern classics such as "Last Christmas" and "Walking in the Air". Unfortunately, both of the latter are tortured by Human Nature and Declan Galbraith respectively, and its here that the compilation starts to fall apart. Some of the covers are interesting, but often they highlight just how much better the originals were. There have been plenty of great versions of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town", not to mention the original so why do we get Michael Bolton? The inclusion of Eva Cassidy's "Over the Rainbow" is also a little confusing. It's poignant sure, but since when has it been associated with Christmas? Still, there's plenty here to keep you amused until its time to put the baubles and tinsel back in the loft. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"
