Christmas Music for the Sophisticated Music Lover November 21, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
What can one say about this CD? The music is simply beautiful, soulful, and addicted, all in the same breath. I can't stop listening to this CD. If you are looking for a CD to put on for the holidays for the sophisticated crowd that loves real music with heart, this is the one to put on. The entire CD is on point. This CD showcases Ledisi in her finest form from R&B to spiritual to jazz. Don't miss out on this experience.
Five brand new Christmas songs all ringing GOLD! November 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I first heard Ledisi on the movie "Leatherheads" and it was love at first sight and sound. She's bound to be an R&B diva for years to come. And instead of giving us a re-tread album full of traditionals, she's got five brand new songs for her holiday CD.
"Thank You" is a paean to gratitude and joy. You will be smiling through Christmas traffic jams if you put this song in your CD player.
"I'll Go" is a hymn of joy and dedication (or rededication). The choir backing this song has the most gorgeous tight harmony I've heard in a song time.
"Give Love on Christmas" is a slow groove that's going to be another romance special.
"Be There for Christmas" is a song about celebrating love. It will make you want to get up and dance!
"This Christmas (Could be the One)" is the song full of longing for a lover far away.
All of these songs are music you are going to hear year after year. I suggest you get this CD and learn them all now. You're not going to get tired of them.

Thank You. November 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you know Ledisi's music then you are aware of her most unique and unmistakable signature. She signs this CD with such joy and glee it leaves the listener breathless. You will love the way Ledisi dots her I's and crosses her T's. [This will make a wonderful addition to your library.] She lets you know, "It's Christmas." Enjoy!

It's AMAZING! September 23, 2008 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
This cd is simply AMAZING! There are so many "favorites" on this cd, it could make you schizophrenic...musically, that is!!! Ledisi's vocals are incredible and match every song chosen. It's the type of cd that you put on and enjoy from first song to last! It almost feels like a Ledisi show right in your own living room or car. There's so much heart in these songs, I can't even explain. I know it's September, but I'm definitely buying a copy for everyone I know as gifts...SERIOUSLY! I know it will be their favorite gift this year!!! Excellent job, Ms. Ledisi!
