What a Wonderful World Reviews:
Love it! 
2009-01-20 - I heard one of the songs on the radio on my way into work one morning in December; I enjoyed it so much that I wanted to listen to it again. I researched the name of the song on google (as soon as I got to work) which directed me to amazon.com. I listened to clip-its of each song to confirm that I liked more than just that one song... LeAnn's voice is amazing on every song so I purchased the CD. $6.99 was a bargain!
LeAnn Rimes What A Wonderful World 
2009-01-14 - After watching Biography on LeAnn, I bought a few CD's for my wife. This one must have played a thousand times! She has a wonderful original style and amazing voice in general. It has a country feel, and although I rarely listen to country music, I / we really enjoy this CD.
Not what I expected. 
2009-01-06 - Leanne, This album was "TOO" traditional. It didn't have the life and wonder I expected from you. I like your little known B side of "put a little holiday in your heart." I could play that over and over again. Your unique voice needs a unique collection of christmas songs. Sorry, didn't like this one.
The WORST Christmas album ever 
2008-01-02 - ...and I've heard Elvis's Christmas album in which he sings "Blue Christmas" like he's having a seizure. I was skeptical when I saw the only religious song was O' Holy Night, which she absolutely massacred to the point of sacrilege. I would be ashamed to put out such a disgusting album. The only song she sang right was "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree", but it's still Brenda Lee's song. And what the hell does "What a Wonderful World" have to do with the Christmas holidays? (Though I did sort of enjoy this song in a "Who's that Doggie in the Window" kind of way.)
Leann does have a voice ("Blue" is amazing and her inspirational CD, "You Light Up My Life" had a couple of good songs, so I know she can do MUCH better). There was too much heavy breathing, ad-libbing "oh yeah", for example, and singing monosyllabic words as polysyllabic (I don't know what you call that in musical terms, I just know what I heard was caterwauling). Sometimes it sounded like she was trying to sing in the middle of an orgasm, and I felt like a weirdo for listening.
If you want to listen to "White Christmas", listen to Bing Crosby sing it, if you want to listen to "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas", listen to Judy Garland sing it in "Meet Me in St. Louis", which it was actually written for, and, of course, Brenda Lee's version of "Rockin'" is still the best and the only version I've heard in all the Christmas movies I've seen.
I think "Just Love Me" was just about the worst (badly written) song on here. It should have been titled "A Trailer Park Christmas". If I want to hear a redneck, white trash, blue collar "holiday" song, I'll listen to "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer"--at least it's somewhat entertaining.
If you want to listen to a GOOD Christmas CD, get Jim Reeves's "The Twelve Songs of Christmas" (which has "Senor Santa Claus" on it--such a cute song!).
Now that I think about it, even though "O' Holy Night" was the only religious song on here, she didn't sing any about Santa Claus either. What's with that?
Merry Christmas, My Friends! 
2007-07-16 - LeAnn Rimes is one of my favourite artists. Her voice is amazing and the songs are usually great. This album is quite a good one. Well, the songs are probably too peaceful. I would have wished more rocking songs like the opening track "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree". The album is not so good as a normal album but I bet it is great to listen to in Christmas time.
