CD Reviews

Good Apple... pity there's a worm
Poulette | 11/20/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Each of the songs on this album reflect the style of the various singers, and there are a few standouts. Fiona Apple's version of Frosty, Sara Bareilles does a lovely job with hers, and Silver Bells is a full-throated, gorgeous rendition. In fact, all of the songs are well done with one glaring exception: Katy Perry. Her rendition of White Christmas makes me think that she was either drunk while recording, or deliberately mocking the song. Really unlistenable. It's a pity that such the one track would be so jarringly off-key in the midst of a very good mix."
Almost awesome album
Amy M. Dunlap | Sewickley, PA United States | 12/18/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Honestly, I bought this album because Ingrid Michaelson sings "Winter Song" with Sara Bareilles. I was pleasantly suprised to find the Priscilla Ahn "Silent Night" - yes, it's that one they played at the beginning of ER. Some other very nice tracks are Meiko's "Maybe Next Year", and Colbie Caillat's "Mistletoe". I did NOT like KT Tunstall's "Sleigh Ride" - very jarring and kind of scary. I wansn't crazy about the oversung "Silver Bells" either. But I disagree with other reviewers about Katy Perry's "White Christmas". I found it quite sweet and a nice take on an old chestnut. I highly recommend this CD, but I'll admit it's very uneven."
Very Decent Christmas Album

"I've enjoyed most of the songs on the holiday album, especially Sara Bareilles' Winter Song with Ingrid Michaelson and the Lenka song. Each artist put their own spin in these songs and for the most part they are enjoyable. It's worth buying if you're looking for a modern all female Christmas album."
