When we were in a small gift shop in a town near Minneapolis early in November of 2008, this CD was playing. Luckily we didn't order it because I found it on Amazon for a fraction of the price they mentioned to us. They were out of it to purchase, but said they could get it and mail it to us. They said it is very hard to get and that it would cost $15.00. After I ordered one for myself, I decided to get one for each of my nieces, my children (23 and 26), and as little hospitality gifts to give out when we were invited to someone's home for a party over the holiday season. It was a big hit with everyone I gave it to.
I absolutely loved this CD but I just wish there was more to it. It seems like it's half finished with so few songs but what is there is awesome. His voice is so smooth and rich so even though I wish there were twice as many songs, it's still worth having just to hear how beautifully Michael sings these Christmas classics.
My only complaint is that there isn't more. This guy needs to do a bigger Christmas album and hopefully will for 2009.
By the time you turn this CD on, it's over. You would expect more razz-ma-tazz from Buble. Only 8 tracks (I think). They'll all nice Christmas mood-setting songs, but not anything extraordinary. Download your favorite Christmas song instead. Don't buy the whole CD.
Short and sweet. Excellent holiday classic however too short. Michael Buble is a phenominal entertainer but was surprised on the short length of this c/d.
