I hadn't listened to this album in entirety for a long time but found a lot of comfort in listening to it during this past holiday season and have been listening to certain tracks off and on since.

Honestly I bought it back when it was released but truly only listened to my favorite track, O HOLY NIGHT over & over. This is a well-balanced album that mixes standard holiday songs with Mariah's own heartfelt tracks which makes it an interesting album overall to listen to.

SILENT NIGHT - I love the vocal arrangement of the background singers, Melonie Daniels, Shanrae Price & Kelly Price

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU - instant modern classic with a do-wop arrangement

MISS YOU MOST (AT CHRISTMAS TIME) - although I love this track, I can't listen to it too often as it brings me to tears

JOY TO THE WORLD - love her rollicking rendition of this traditional song

JESUS BORN ON THIS DAY - Mariah sounds great & the addition of the childrens' choir makes this song special

SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN - another toe-tapping rollicking arrangement kicks up the "fun factor" of this song

HARK! THE HERALD ANGEL SINGS/GLORIA - the arrangement is terrific

JESUS, OH WHAT A WONDERFUL CHILD - takes me to church everytime I hear it

It's one of the best holiday albums I have in my collection and definitely one of my favorite Mariah albums.
