    They [Sia and Greg Kurstin] bring effervescent energy to dance-minded tracks such as “Santa’s Coming for us” and the Phil Spector-inspired “Candy Cane Lane” while investing real sincerity into more introspective numbers including “Snowflake” and “Underneath the Mistletoe.”

    An LP that, on balance, really is just for Christmas. [Jan 2018, p.113]

    Over the course of the album, Sia tries to cover all the moods of the season: "Ho Ho Ho" gets into the Christmas spirit with gin, bourbon, and loopy cartoon sound effects; "Puppies Are Forever" could be from a children's holiday album; and "Sunshine" finds Sia helping a sad friend with heroic doses of Christmas cheer. However, some of the album's best moments tone down the merriment.

    There’s plenty Sia could do with an album entirely of Christmas originals, but too many are underwritten; there’s more consistency in the art direction than the songwriting.

    Sia too often sounds like she's singing with a mouthful of Christmas candy.

    That carelessness [tendency towards repetition that seems lazy], combined with Sia’s mewling, monotonous and oddly Scandi-accented vocal, means Everyday Is Christmas is unlikely to win over any nonbelievers.

Sia is the only artist who took the risk to release an album with new Christmas songs. The lyrics of every song are so beautiful and meaningful, Sia and Greg Kurstin did something completely different and it´s what Christmas time needed. Thanks Sia and Greg for giving a refresh to Christmas songs. Bravo!!!… Full Review »
