Product Description
From Amazon.com
It was only a matter of time before the folks behind the wildly successful WOW series turned their eyes toward Christmas. After all, holiday releases by Christian artists flood the market every year, and there's plenty of stock to choose from. WOW Christmas does, indeed, capture a nice range of styles and artists from releases over the last few years. Among the sweeter moments are Michael W. Smith's new standard, "Emmanuel," Point of Grace's angelic "O Holy Night," Rebecca St. James's quirky "Sweet Little Jesus Boy," and the Mark Schultz-Nichole Nordeman gentle treatment of "Silent Night." There are a couple of curiosities here, as well: Avalon jazzing up the old standard "Winter Wonderland" with a Manhattan Transfer-like big-band sound; and Fred Hammond's soulful "Go Tell It on the Mountain." And if that's not offbeat enough, we also get the flat-out weirdness of Audio Adrenaline's punked-out "Little Drummer Boy." For the most part, though, WOW Christmas spices up the classic Yule tunes with freshness and creativity, making it a must disc for your holiday party. --Michael Lyttle

Best Christmas Album,
By A Customer
This review is from: Wow Christmas (Audio CD)
This is the best Christmas album I've heard in a few years. It has every style of music that you can think of. The musicians on this album are better than any of the top 10 mainstream musicians. This album is completely non-cheezy and, unlike some Christmas albums, is not too syrupy (sickly sweet).

A very refreshing change,
By Brian K. Vaupel (Rio Rancho, NM) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wow Christmas (Audio CD)
I don't understand the negative reviews on this one. If you are looking to traditional arrangements of all of these songs, there are thousands of other CD's to pick up. Stop and think for a second, "Would you honestly expect Audio Adrenaline to do a traditional version of Little Drummer Boy?" I can honestly say that is is one Christmas album that will NOT collect dust between January and November, and the ONLY other Christmas album I can say that about is Vince Guaraldi's Charlie Brown Christmas. Don't hesitate for a second on this one IF you are looking for the songs you love but want to hear them done in a different way.

WOW Christmas,
By A Customer
This review is from: Wow Christmas (Audio CD)
I am very disappointed in my purchase of this CD. I wish I would have read the other reviews on Amazon before purchasing. Why can't the popular Christian singers just sing the songs as they are instead of messing them all up with their own "creativity"! I actually bought 2 copies of the CD, one for me and one for my sister in law as a Christmas gift. I will be returning the one I haven't opened yet, for my sister-in-law, and get a different CD for her. I wish I could return mine as well! A waste of $20, which is what I paid at Best Buy.
