5.0 out of 5 stars Something Just Clicks, November 4, 2002

This album means Christmas.

From the beautiful opening rendition of "T'was..." to the rousing closer, this is a collection to remember.

Much has been made of the quality of Como's voice. He was never better than here. But what truly separates this from all other Christmas albums are the arrangements. From the soft chorals of "Silent Night" to the inspired counterpoint of "The 12 Day...," the musicians blend with Como's warmth and create a texture rare in pop.

As an added bonus, even the 'original' tunes are inspired. "That Christmas Feeling" is certainly not out of place among the more traditional favorites.

All of this adds to up delightful holiday listening year after year.

I just noticed that this CD has been released, and I ordered it immediately. When I was very young, I'd ask my mother to put on the "Perry Como record" whenever I wanted to "feel like Christmas," even it was the middle of July. Just listening to the samples here brings back so many memories of childhood Christmases and growing up in the '50s. I can't wait to receive the CD and hear it entirely!

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST in Christmas Music., December 9, 2003

As a young child I can remember listening to Perry Como's Christmas albums in our home and at my grandparent's home on Christmas Eve. My dad would pack the "record player" along with the gifts to make sure we took the sounds of Perry Como with us to share with all of the family. Now as a parent my seven year old really enjoys this CD and will often tell me how he likes this music better than the "modern" holiday music of today. This is a tremendous compilation of songs that makes the holidays so much more enjoyable and always takes me back to those wonderful Christmas's of my youth.
