I love this album! I've been listening to it since October and I still love it! It's got the great classic Christmas songs, like my favorites, 'O Holy Night' and 'What Child Is This'. They also sing a nice acapella version of 'Silent Night'. They even written a couple themselves-- 'This Is Christmas' and 'I Won't Forget This Christmas'-- the smooth vocals and music tracks are awesome; they have some mad talent! 'Our Christmas Prayer' has some pretty piano music, which really adds a nice effect to the song. You must hear it for yourselves! This album is a great reminder of what Christmas is really all about! Great Christmas present for teen girls AND adults--my mom enjoys it too! :D

This is an excellant cd! (It's Plus One, so it has to be!) The guys have suceeded in mixing old traditional songs with the some new ones and ended up with a great result! This cd included some of my favorite christmas songs, like "What Child Is This" and " Oh Holy Night" and even has " It's the Most Wonderful Time". The first two songs definately rank among my favorites, however, especially "I Won't Forget This Christmas." All in all, it's a great cd, the best Christmas cd in my opinion. Great music, great songs, great message and a great buy! Way to go, Plus One!

This is such an awesome Christmas album release from pop group Plus One, one that includes a mix of holiday favorites as well as several original titles. From the intriguing guitar intro on the first track to the close with a classic Christmas tune, Plus One captures the holiday spirit. The vocals are tremendous, the lyrics are touching, and, while the album definitely has a "pop" sound to it, there's something here for everyone to enjoy.

The first two tracks, "This Is Christmas" and "I Won't Forget This Christmas" (both written by Plus One), are inspirational and innovative, sure to be favorites to listen to over and over again. The next track is a wonderful addition that combines three heart-warming tunes, "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," "I'll Be Home For Christmas," and a rousing rendition of "Come Let Us Adore Him". The band slows down a little with a soft and meditative "What Child Is This", definitely one of the album's highlights. It's pure enjoyment to hear Plus One in a nice little spin-off from the verse, listening as the energy builds up toward the final chorus. "Silent Night" is performed free of any accompanying instruments, allowing the listener to hear unfettered the beautiful and clear vocals of these inspiring guys.

The group shifts gears again with "A Prayer For Every Year," probably the only letdown on this laudable album; it has a "been there, done that" sound to it (think of those Disney songs from the early 90's). However, this so-so track is immediately countered with "O Holy Night", one of those tunes that really grows on you after several listens. Next is a merry and charming song titled "Our Christmas Prayer." By this point, one really starts to appreciate the ability of Plus One to utilize a variety of sounds and styles to create an awesome assortment of Christmas music. "O Little Town of Bethlehem" is infused with a touch of novelty, which may appeal to some or potentially turn away others. A classy reproduction of "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" tops off this great Christmas album.

Plus One has successfully produced an endearing and terrific Christmas collection that should find a welcome place in your music library. It's a great CD to pop in the stereo while the cookies are baking, the gifts are being wrapped, and the fire is crackling in the wood stove. It also serves as a reminder of what Christmas is all about- Jesus, something that is missing in many mainstream Christmas releases nowadays. A well-deserved kudos to Plus One!

Want something everyone can listen to and love, well this is it. There voices combine nicely to create incredible christmas hits.

I love this CD...it's a family favorite that we pull out each year and listen throughout the whole Christmas Season!!

This CD is a great addition to any Christmas collection. It contains both fun songs, like HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS, and spiritual ones, like WHAT CHILD IS THIS and SILENT NIGHT. One of my favorites is the MEDLEY, which has Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, I'll Be Home For Christmas, and O Come Let Us Adore Him in it. I especially like the transition between the last two, which says, "In my memory, I can see the tree with my presents big and small, but the story of a King who came for me is the greatest gift of all."

My other favorite song on this album would have to be either I WON'T FORGET THIS CHRISTMAS or OUR CHRISTMAS PRAYER. The first one talks about how we should never forget what Christmas is all about, and the second one is so beautiful, I have to type the chorus. "We pray for joy, we pray for peace, from the west and to the east, and that every man may find someone to love. We pray for strength, we pray for light, and on this holiest of nights, deliver hope where there's despair, Jesus, hear our Christmas prayer." I love it!

The last song, IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR, I was really surprised at. It's a pretty fun arrangement, but it just doesn't seem like Plus One's style. But all in all, I have to say that this is a pretty great CD.

:) Plus one rocks... U have to buy this CD.. :)

Plus One's "Christmas" CD will put anyone in a Christmas mood. The guys' vocals are so great. The songs are well sung. I love it. I recommend it to everyone.
