My favorite cd this Christmas and for Christmases to come! Nov 21, 2009 David Archuleta sings such a classically beautiful rendition of every song on this cd! The simplicity of his velvety vocals is what makes each song so heartfelt and meaningful. I really appreciate that his vocals are featured although the orchestra, especially the strings are absolutely breathtaking! In contrast to most other Christmas albums I own, I love ALL his song choices. This cd was assembled so thoughtfully starting with meaningful and traditional Christmas hymns leading into contemporary classics. The nice variety includes songs in other languages to the last pop song, "Melodies of Christmas". A new clever tune co-written by David is the perfect song to wrap up this wonderful Christmas gift of music like a big red bow!

Sadly disappointing! Nov 20, 2009 I am an avid fan. I pre-ordered this CD only to be crushingly dismayed. David sounded amateurish in his nasal and whinny voice which lacked a personal touch on the Christmas classics. I wish the album contained more new Christmas compositions best suited to David's contemporary style as demonstrated in the last cut. This production needed more thought and deliberation. Moreover, David's picturers came across as very different. Rather than the "teen-age-sensously-inviting" look, he almost resembled a "raindeer?" to me both at the front and inside covers. Think intelligently before buying this album!

Totally wonderful Nov 20, 2009 I listened to the samples and after hearing just the snippet of Pat-a-Pan I decided to get it as I am a fan of David. This song alone makes the album special but every song is lovely, for me it's as special as Johnny Mathis' Christmas Album.

Ditto all the other 5 star remarks! Nov 20, 2009 David has such a beautiful mellow voice. This albumn gave me chills and goosebumps. I bought the albumn because of all the 5 star reviews and comments and I really agree it is a classic album to listen to every Christmas.

Even if you didn't like him during Idol Nov 20, 2009 This young man's voice is already getting better. In my opinion it will continue to do so as he ages, adding more depth and character to an already truly amazing instrument, a blessing. The selection of songs and the arrangements are also extremely well done. This for me will become a "classic" add to the ever growing Christmas music collection!!
