“Charlie Brown Christmas” is a great slice of everyone’s childhood.īorn Is The King should have been a full track. “O Come All Ye Faithful” has her just belting it out with her mom and they really take it to Church! “One Child” shows Mariah’s somewriting ability, the song sounds like an old stardard. The belted note she sustains clearly at the end is all the more appreciated. “Christmas Time Is In The Air Again” her voice is understated yet still is Mariah with the full yet airy falsetto, melisma and vocal delivery. Mariah is SANGING on this album more so than the last 5 years! On “When Christmas Comes” her vocals are FULL and very “Stay The Night”, and lyrically content was written ll by her. Many people will say “Ohh she’s whisperin on all the songs and can’t sing” but those people are the ones that listen to first 30 seconds, form an opinion and keep moving. After listening to it, it doesn’t so much serve as a sequal to the first MC (1994), but more of continuation and a re-affirming of her place in the industry, her peers, fans and critics musically and vocally.
