Great voice, Tunes not not what I expected
Her voice is as great as ever but the tunes seemed rather flat. Was hoping for a Christmas Classic in the making but missed the mark. Enjoyed a couple tracks but won't recommend it to others.

depressing Christmas songs
I love Mary Chapin Carpenter, but this CD has some very depressing songs on it, especially for Christmas. I expected catchy and lively tunes from her. Her tenor voice adds to the somber effect.

Magnificent!
Mary's lirics are always unique... but this CD's lyrics are exceptional! Her music never fails to impress me and it stays with me. She is truly gifted!!

A "Wundebar" Winter Season CD
I first listened to the sample songs on Amazon before I ordered this and I was not disappointed in my selection. This is one of the best Christmas purchases I made and I think that Mary Chapin-Carpenter's album is absolutely wonderful. Her voice is both soulful and soothing. I especially like Hot Buttered Rum and Come Darkness Come Light..... it mostly contains original songs and not your usual Christmas fare. I will have this in my collection for a long time and don't see it as just a Christmas album but one that can be enjoyed all winter long. My rating ...5 stars.

Got caffeine?
This anticpated CD for the holidays turned out to be a real sleeper--literally. Ms. Carpenter has a great voice and sings with talented musicians. But, the tone and cadence of the "Holiday" songs are a downer. Every one of them is slow, lethargic, mono-toned, and just plain lifeless. I don't know what funk she's in, but I surely hope that she snaps out of it. You won't with this CD. Drink plenty of coffee!
