Holiday music might not be everyone's cup of tea, but with new records from Alicia Keys, Backstreet Boys and Debbie Gibson, there's something that might appeal to everyone at the table. So pull out the record player, light some candles and get festive — and thankful for new music.
singer Chris Isaak is in a festive mood. It only makes sense that his next project would be a holiday album.
In 1998, Athens, Georgia, guitarists Davis Causey and Jay Smith found themselves with little money for presents, so they recorded an album of eight instrumentals for a limited run of 100 CDs, and gave them to friends and family.ADVERTISEMENT is a brilliant addition to the holiday cannon with Stone’s seemingly effortless takes on 13 classics, breathing new life into “White Christmas” and “Let It Snow.” She also wrote two nifty originals.Though she has a Ferrari engine, her restraint is admirable, letting the song shine, like one of the prettiest versions of “In The Bleak Midwinter” you’ll ever hear and an absolutely joyous take on Irving Berlin’s “Snow.
One highlight is a rare Christmas break-up song — she and New Kids on the Block’s Joey McIntyre co-wrote the terrific “Heartbreak Holiday.” Other Gibson originals like ”Jingle Those Bells,” “Christmas Star” and “Christmas Dreams” deserve to be on your holiday rotation and her cover of “The Candy Man” is a great showcase for her Broadway-ready voice.
In addition, the band gifts their fans with their own original Christmas song “Happy Days.” They sing “We’re gonna party like it’s ’99,” and, honestly, there probably isn’t a more early 2000s pop holiday song than this.So, being a big Christmas enthusiast won’t just do it, you have to commit to that cheesy and sentimental pop beat. While I doubt that whoever is not into the boy band genre will curiously stumble into this album, the hardcore fans will definitely be satisfied.
