Product Description
From Amazon.com
Toby Keith's got a big heart, judging by the songs he's written and the songs he's chosen to sing on Christmas to Christmas. Many show concern for the homeless ("Santa I'm Right Here") or disdain for the crass commercialization of the season--told through the voice of a small girl ("Jesus Gets Jealous of Santa Claus")--and other timely sentiments. Trouble is, Keith's not a great songwriter (although he's not bad storyteller). What adds to his shortcomings as a wordsmith are his melody lines, which generally sound punch pressed from that crass commercialized Nashville mold. Keith fans will enjoy the selections, however, and nearly anyone can appreciate the fact that he chose not to make a record of the same tired old standards played in the tired old contemporary-country way. --Martin Keller

Typical Toby - A Great Album!,
By
This review is from: Christmas To Christmas (Audio CD)
I *love* Toby Keith. I realize that people are entitled to their own opinions, but if they don't like an artist, at least make the complaints valid.
As an example, I'm talking about the Amazon reviewer. Is this person even aware that Toby *did not* write all the songs on this album - one of them was penned by Keith Urban. Regardless, I bought this album a month ago. I have it on my mp3 player. The songs play randomly along with Toby's other material. I'm a "bah humbug" type of person ... I think Christmas is way too commercial, but I love this album. It is one of only two Christmas albums that I can abide listening to - the other is by Nana Mouskouri. I, for one, don't ever want Toby to change how and what he records. He is, without a doubt, my favourite artist and I pity the people who don't understand and appreciate his talent. This album gets a big thumbs up from me.

Plenty of original songs,
By Peter Durward Harris "Pete the music fan" (Leicester England) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Christmas To Christmas (Audio CD)
Toby avoided all the obvious songs for this collection of Christmas songs. Indeed, the only cover (as far as I know) is the title track, an outstanding love song which I first came across on Lee Greenwood's 1985 album, also titled Christmas to Christmas, and which has also been recorded by Tanya Tucker among others.The songs here include all aspects of the festive season and cover all moods, mixing sad songs with happy songs. Christmas rock is a great rocking song. Blame it on the mistletoe is a reflective love song. Hot rod sleigh is an amusing song that will appeal to children of all ages. In another amusing song, Toby has problems with his woman and warns her that Santa's gonna take it all back. Santa I'm right here is a sad song about a homeless family. Perhaps the outstanding song here is Jesus gets jealous of Santa Claus, a song that points out the problems that some people have in combining the religious and festive aspects of Christmas. There are many other great songs here. If you enjoy country music and you are looking for a collection of original songs, this is just what you are looking for.

A terrific holiday album.,
By Deanna (Maryland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Christmas To Christmas (Audio CD)
If you're a fan of Toby Keith or even a country music fan, you must have this CD! On this album, instead of having Christmas tunes everybody has heard before, Toby uses original holiday music. "Hot Rod Sleigh" is a funny song about how Santa has a new, fast hot rod sleigh to keep up with all the children. "Christmas Rock" and "Santa's Gonna Take It All Back" are also fun! "Santa, I'm Right Here," which is about a homeless family living on the street, is touching. "Bethlehem in Birmingham" is very sweet and so are "Jesus Gets Jealous of Santa Claus" and "All I Want for Christmas."All of the songs on "Christmas To Christmas" are wonderful! It's truly one of my favorite holiday albums of all-time. Toby Keith is a great singer and songwriter and it shows on this record. I highly recommend it!
