 Please Have Some SnoooOOOoooOOOooow and MistletoooOOOoooOOOoooe... Nov 21, 2009
There's not one single note of joy or warmth or sincerity to be heard on this miserable excuse for a Christmas record. Whitney's singing is every bit as stagnant as the second rate r&b arrangements that desecrate these once beautiful Christmas standards. Being the greedy songbird that she is, her voice has a tendency to go all over the place, as if her wet finger were stuck in an open light socket. The end result is a crass and tactless product, a pathetic excuse to wring a few bucks out of her hopelessly adoring fans during the holidays. I have One Wish as well. That Whitney never makes another Christmas album. Ever.

Love Whitney Dec 20, 2007
I bought this album in spite of the lukewarm reviews. I was not disappointed, however, Whitney's voice certainly struggled a lot on the high notes. This is not classic Whitney (talentwise), "Saving All My Love for You", "The Bodyguard" soundtrack, etc...Whitney of the 80's/very early 90's or when she made everyone cry when she sang "The National Anthem" at the Superbowl...way back when. But if you love Whitney the artist then you can overlook her career setbacks and appreciate this album which I did.

NOT GREAT - Barely decent. Nov 23, 2007
Firstly, I love Ms. Whit Whit. But this CD is just borders between bad & OK. None of the songs she sung were great. She completely OVER SINGS. Holding notes way to long. I don't need you to take me through the entire octave - minus the really high notes, just to belt out one word. I also don't need you to hold one note for 5 hours.
It's extremely R&B/Gospel which is NOT bad but I've always believed that Whitney has a pop voice. My favorite Christmas CD's are Temptations, Yolanda Adams & Ms. Patti. But Whitney just can't do that style very well. So, all this soulful, holding notes for 15 minutes, with a raspy voice ruined some of these classics for me. You can tell her voice HAS changed and that she's a smoker, former drug addict and current alcoholic. Sounds harsh but when you listen to this CD, you'll understand. All the rave reviews must be coming from family, friends and die hard Whitney fans. If you want Classic Whitney, this ain't it.
Just be prepared to want to return this CD.
