Customer Review

Mariah Carey is sold with 18 number-one hits, five Grammys and more than 200 million records, without a doubt, one of the most successful singers of our time.

With "Merry Christmas II You" Mariah Carey released her 13th studio album, and thus their second Christmas album. In 1994 she traveled to wish their fans "Merry Christmas" and put it one of the most successful Christmas albums of all time under the tree. Unforgettable: The legendary anthem "All I Want For Christmas Is You". The single was able to prove time and again No. 1 on the American charts between 2005 and 2008.

This can also be found on "Merry Christmas II You", but in a new guise. In addition, listeners expect more contemplative twelve titles, including four new songs, including the opener "Oh Santa" counts. Click here for anything but calm, because all the typical Christmas-track is an uptempo number which will be opened by a gospel choir Cheerleader.

With "O Little Town Of Bethlehem / Little Drummer Boy Medley", "Christmas Time Is In The Air Again" and "The First Noel" it is classic after. Only "When Christmas Comes" is true then to modern and sounds more like an R & B than to a Christmas song. And "Here Comes Santa Claus" may surprise, because the song mixed with funk and a touch of the 80's a. The sequel to "Charlie Brown Christmas" first begins rhythmically, but then goes gently into "Christmas Time Is Here" above.

"O Come All Ye Faithful / Hallelujah Chorus" is the only song on the album, vocally gets support at the Mariah. Namely, by none other than Patricia Carey, her mother! A very special duet, in which Mariah than ever, her incredible vocal range more proof. With "O Holy Night" then a live recording that was recorded in the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Los Angeles follows. Is accompanied here by Mariah Carey a gospel choir.

After the peaceful "One Child" finally is then hear the hotly anticipated "All I Want For Christmas Is You". Namely, in a particularly festive and orchestral version. The end of the album forms the classic "Auld Lang Syne (The New Year's Anthem)". Accompanied by a choir and piano song starts restrained, but develops into a good-mood-dance number.

"Merry Christmas II You" is not a classic Christmas album. The songs were interpreted interesting and new and the influences of pop, dance, funk and R & B make it sound varied. Is only to be hoped that Mariah Carey can beat her first Christmas album "Merry Christmas" it.

The special edition of the album also includes a 30-minute DVD documentary about the work of the Mariah Carey during the recording of "Merry Christmas II You" had in the studio. In addition to an interview she looks also back to bygone days, such as that appeared at her first X-Mas album now than 16 years ago.
