It's O.K.Oct 16, 2007 This CD could have been better. The interpretation is O.K. Her voice is nice, but the Christmas spirit is not all that present.

Go home and close the door !Dec 10, 2003 As an avid DEBBY BOONE fan, I still find her vocals forever reminding me of crisp fall afternoons in 1977. However, on this collection DEBBY is overpowered by the heavy dose of LAWRENCE WELK/NELSON RIDDLE musical arrangements. The production of this CD is really not succesfull (possibly explaining the reduced price list). The duet between the late ROSEMARY CLOONEY & BOONE falls flat. On this CD, it would have been nice to hear DEBBY sing songs more lighthearted and uptempto (must everything be produced a la "YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE" ?
This CD is nothing more than a bad collection of granny songs dusted off to sooth drunk uncles who will not leave your home on the 26th after the parties of the 24th - 25th are over. This CD will clear out any party. A down, dull musical journey and it's too bad that DEBBY's vocal talents have been wasted on this project.

THANK YOU CURB RECORDS!Nov 11, 2002 Someone there at Curb Records truly appreciates great music, as they have been doing a great job getting the magnificently effecting voice and music of Debby Boone back to the masses where it belongs.On this holiday collection Boone sings some classic Christmas songs using great arrangements and touches.This cd (unlike some holiday collections) is great all the way through. Must hears are "Some Children See Him" - an instant personal holiday classic, "Christmas Time Is Here" - another classic delivery, "O Holy Night" - great version of an often covered classic, and " White Christmas" sung with the legendary late Rosemary Clooney who just happened to be Debbys' mother in law. The two had toured for years with a Christmas concert and this gem is a way to experience first hand some of that magic. A must have for the holidays!

A Classic Voice Singing Classic Holiday SongsOct 30, 2002 Best known for her 1977 hit single "You Light Up My Life", Debby Boone is a three-time Grammy winner with a diverse catalog of recordings. She's done pop, country, contemporary Christian, and show tunes. Her album of Christmas music certainly showcases her lovely voice, with an interesting and satisfying selection of songs. This album was originally released by Lamb & Lion Records/Sparrow Records in 1989, and re-released by Unison Records in the mid 1990's. As much as we would love for Debby to get back into the recording studio, "HOME FOR CHRISTMAS" is one way that we can enjoy Debby's wonderful way with a song until that happens again. Best cuts: "Some Children See Him" (an Alfred Burt carol that you don't hear very often... with a great message of inclusivity), "Christmas Time Is Here" (introduced in the Charlie Brown Christmas Special) and "White Christmas" (a duet with Rosemary Clooney, a recording even more poignant now that Rosemary is no longer with us).
