As the song goes, "Merry Christmas" has already "been said many times, many ways." Diana Krall's Christmas Songs is a worthy--though not particularly unique--addition to the holiday catalog. On it, she excels with an approach mastered long ago: elegant delivery that gives extra polish to a very familiar lineup. Some might find her style frosty at times, but that will come as a relief to those who want their carolers to cut through some of the holiday treacle and create a festive, yet grown-up vibe. And Krall does show off her playful side with little, personal touches. In "Winter Wonderland" she promises to "frolic and play the Canadian way," which should draw smiles from her native land. (That'll mean toasting the holiday with Molson, eh?) Elsewhere, she ends "Jingle Bells" with the girlishly giddy statement, "I'm just crazy about horses." Well…can't argue with that. --Leah Weathersby

 Simply excellent ! December 17, 2007
Louis (Quebec, Canada)
Diana Krall has come up with a perfect Christmas album. The selection of material is flawless and loaded with classics - which, let's face it, is a key element in a Christmas record. Most of the songs on the album were recorded with a big band, which brings out the best in Krall; the result is slick, flawless and will perfectly suit your holiday season. When she turns down the tempo for piano-and-vocals ballads, it's intimate enough to make you feel as though she's sitting in the room with you. The highlights are "Jingle bells", "Winter wonderland", "What are you doing New Year's eve", "Christmas time is here", "Have yourself a merry little Christmas" and "I'll be home for Christmas"; however, every track is a keeper. It's all a grown-up affair, of course, and it's hardly a trendy record; but anyone even remotely interested with Krall's instantly recognizable jazzy sounds will find great rewards in this excellent Christmas album.

this is a wonderful album to add to your Christmas stash!!
Diana can really feel music, and we as a listener reap the benefits of this gift. She is just one more great voice of this generation...so many now with Diana, Nora, Michael B, Harry C. and still one of my favs, Tony Bennett....Keep this wonderful music coming everyone, as we will keep on buying your beautiful music.

Great CD if you need xmas tunes for the holidays. Much nicer than the usual crap out there. Problem with this CD is that every time you turn on the radio it's being played. As usual with her CDs her voice has been butched by the studio/producer, (typicial echo overlay). If you want to hear her real voice see her live, and even then it's still a bit wonky.

 Bad Photo December 5, 2005

Photos are subjective, but i think Diana needs to find a new photographer, it looks like she fell in this chair and is finding that's it's hurting way too much. What a waste of an image on a high class act.ORC
