Free Music Review: superb Christmas music from Faith Hill
Hit: 5 Stars

Faith Hill is a very special songbird; when she sings her voice is as clear as a bell and her sophisticated phrasing enhances her performance. This album is no exception; and it's a fine debut Christmas album from Faith at that! Christmastime music is always wonderful to hear; I can never truly get my fill of it. Indeed, it's some of the best music we hear all year--it's usually catchy and memorable with a message so sweet that it makes you feel all warm inside. The traditional carols and songs on this album have big band style arrangements that work wonders for them, too. The quality of the sound on this CD is excellent and I love that artwork, too.

The CD begins with Faith Hill performing the title track; the backup choir is remarkably impressive--not that Faith needed it but they really sound wonderful anyway. Faith handles complex tempo and key changes like the chanteuse she truly is; and that's grand. "What Child Is This?" has Faith squarely front and center; and that's quite all right by me! The arrangement has a few key modulations to let Faith put her own stamp on this classic Christmas ballad; and it all holds its own very well. In addition, "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town" is lively and charming at once. The jazzy arrangement fits in perfectly with Faith's vocals; the brass and percussion help to enhance the number quite a bit. Faith never lets go of a superfluous note; and I'm truly impressed.

"Little Drummer Boy" is quite well done; Faith sings this passionately with all her heart and soul. The male backup sounds terrific although they never even try to steal the show away from Faith; she's right in the spotlight and I love it. "O Come, All Ye Faithful" has always been one of my favorite holiday songs; Faith does great justice to this ballad with her excellent diction and her sensitive treatment of this number. "O Come, All Ye Faithful" is easily a major highlight of this album; it's very easy on the ear, too. "Holly Jolly Christmas" is a tune I first heard sung by Burl Ives; I would like to think that he would have loved Faith's rendition of this amazing song!

"Away in a Manger" has a wonderful arrangement and Faith performs this faultlessly; and listen for Faith to outdo even herself on "O Holy Night" "O Holy Night" is another passionate song that Faith delivers beautifully; she truly delves deep into "O Holy Night" to bring out all the subtle nuances of the lyrics as she performs this to perfection--and beyond! "Winter Wonderland" is also very pretty; the strings are used to great advantage and so is that brass! "Silent Night, Holy Night" is exceptionally stunning when Faith sings this; it showcases Faith singing at her usual very best. The CD ends strong with a much, much newer song entitled "A Baby Changes Everything;" this last song is very poignant and it moves me greatly.

Faith Hill is always wonderful to hear; and on this holiday CD she really makes these songs shine bright! I highly recommend this for her fans and people who like traditional holiday music including Christmas carols. In addition, people who like the big band sound applied to established holiday music will cherish this CD forever.

Joy To The World Poster

The first holiday album from super-star Faith Hill, 'Joy To The World' is a joy to behold, featuring beautiful new versions of ten traditional and modern classics, complete with horns, strings, woodwings, percussion and chorales, much like the big-band orchestras of the 40's and 50's. One of the most popular music stars in America, Faith Hill celebrates the joy-and faith- of the season with 'Joy to the World.'
