Mar 31, 2012Mariah's covers on Christmas classics are nice and different from the originals. What's more notable, is her original song ''Oh Santa!''. The song has a catchy and upbeat tune which makes people want to keep listening to it. The album's best gift, though, is Mariah's duet with her mother, Patricia Carey, in the song ''Oh Come All Ye' Faithful / Hallelujah Chorus''. Her mother's vocals are â

Oct 23, 2015Um álbum maravilhoso que tenta manter a nova essência da Mimi em um clima de natal com notas altas músicas difÃceis porém com uma produção que poderia ter sido um pouco melhor, ainda assim um excelente álbum natalino

Nov 10, 2015Complicated moment in the life of Mariah with a risk pregnancy impossible to do much, the record was a nut as it did a decent job on the preciousness What is this contagious album.

May 24, 2016Outra perfeição natalina feita pela Mariah, tão bom quanto o primeiro!!! Os vocais estão perfeitos e se encaixam direitinho as músicas gravadas nesse álbum, a verdadeira rainha do natal, as melodias os corais gospeis, tudo lindo neste CD que amo muito!

Feb 12, 2022Não é o album que escuto muito, mas sei que a lenda nunca decepciona, rainha do natal

Jul 29, 2022A great album and cohesive one at that.She is a talented singer,songwriter and producer

Nov 16, 2019From the Queen of Christmas,i wouldn't expect more than perfection.BOPS from start to finish
-
Nov 16, 2019One of the best Christmas albums to ever exist. My favorite song is "When Christmas Comes". Mariah is the QUEEN of Christmas so it's no doubt that this album truly reflects that. Merry Christmas and Merry Christmas II You are two amazing holiday works. The other girls just couldn't. Even if they wanted to they couldn't, wouldn't, and shouldn't because they can't!

Mar 23, 2023A very well produced album and the songs really cheer me up, it brings a perfect Christmas atmosphere, a good feeling

May 29, 2023One Child, Oh Santa e Christmas Time Is In The Air Again são sensacionais. Mariah é extremamente talentosa e sabe fazer um trabalho de qualidade.

Jun 20, 2019Listening to it as a progression from first song to last gets sort of messy but the 4 original songs are amazingly made, vocals were on point too. Needs more cohesiveness.
-
Mar 22, 2021In comparison with Carey's first Christmas album, this one sounds very dated and shows none upgrade after sixteen years since its release, and the inclusion of this one as one of her studio albums just make things more complicated.
-
Jun 13, 2011I am a hardcore Mariah Carey fan, so it is hard for me to give a mixed review of this album. It's a hugely disappointing follow-up to her first Christmas album. There doesn't seem to be any real difference between "All I Want For Christmas is You" and the "Extra Festive" version. However, "Oh Santa!" deserves to be called a modern Christmas classic just like the former song.

Feb 19, 2015Mariah Carey is the WORST MUSICIAN EVER next to Justin Bieber. But in person, Justin Bieber is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY WORSE. HE EVEN GOT DETAINED BY THE COPS. XD
-
Nov 4, 2022This album and Mariah Carey make me HATE the commercial side of Christmas, vapid, meaningless music like every song on this album are just atrocious.
-
Nov 7, 2022i HATE Christmas bc of this woman. Her music is so commercialized it means nothing.
-
Nov 9, 2022GOD it's that time of year again sorry Mariah NOPE! Wont be listening this year.
-
Nov 10, 2022This woman has to be stopped, she isn't the icon she thinks she is most people just stream that corny song because of the holiday and not her, her streams drop every January how embarrassing, this is also a terribly performed album.
-
Nov 14, 2022She ruined an entire Holiday for the whole world with this album and her previous x mas album they are so unbearably bad.

Feb 9, 2011The rest of this album intersperses originals with classics--a respectful "First Noel," an aptly baby-making take on "O Little Town of Bethlehem," and "Here Comes Santa Claus (Right Down Santa Claus Lane)" as routed through a strip club. But nothing beats "All I Want for Christmas Is You," from her 1994 album Merry Christmas," one of the great modern holiday albums.
-
Jan 14, 2011It's 16 years since Mariah Carey's first Christmas album, and there's nothing here to suggest she's developed significantly since then.

Dec 14, 2010It's not particularly clever, but it is expectedly big: if you're a Carey fan with a stocking that needs filling this year, this'll perk you up better than any alternative speech or sherry trifle could.
