Luckily we didn't order it because I found it on Amazon for a fraction of the price they mentioned to us. When we were in a small gift shop in a town near Minneapolis early in November of 2008, this CD was playing. It was a big hit with everyone I gave it to. After I ordered one for myself, I decided to get one for each of my nieces, my children (23 and 26), and as little hospitality gifts to give out when we were invited to someone's home for a party over the holiday season. They were out of it to purchase, but said they could get it and mail it to us. They said it is very hard to get and that it would cost $15.00.
His voice is so smooth and rich so even though I wish there were twice as many songs, it's still worth having just to hear how beautifully Michael sings these Christmas classics. I absolutely loved this CD but I just wish there was more to it. It seems like it's half finished with so few songs but what is there is awesome.
This guy needs to do a bigger Christmas album and hopefully will for 2009. My only complaint is that there isn't more.
You would expect more razz-ma-tazz from Buble. By the time you turn this CD on, it's over. Don't buy the whole CD. Download your favorite Christmas song instead. Only 8 tracks (I think). They'll all nice Christmas mood-setting songs, but not anything extraordinary.
Michael Buble is a phenominal entertainer but was surprised on the short length of this c/d. Short and sweet. Excellent holiday classic however too short.
