Kundenrezensionen zu 'Joy: A Holiday Collection [Musikkassette] [US-Import]'

Jewel verwöhnt uns mit schönen Songs zu den Feiertagen (29. November 2005)

Jewel, eine begnadete Singer/Songwriterin aus Amerika, glänzt mit ihren musikalischen Interpretationen von amerik. Weihnachstliedern.

Musik - Gourmets kann ich grundsätzlich die CD`s von Jewel empfehlen.

A sensational Christmas album (26. August 2004)

Jewel built her reputation partly on her songwriting, so it came as a surprise to some that she chose to record an album of mostly standards. I wasn't surprised - I've heard many singers who didn't bother with covers, but made an exception for Christmas. I wanted this anyway, because Jewel has one of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard.

However, there are a few surprises here, although the album begins predictably enough. The first seven tracks are all extremely well known and all performed in a fairly conventional manner. What makes them refreshing is the quality of Jewel's singing and the simplicity of the backing. These tracks cannot be faulted in any way and if the rest of the album had been of the same standard, I would have been very happy. However, that's when things get interesting - and even better.

The next track, Rudolph the red-nose reindeer, is given a completely different treatment, mostly just Jewel and her mother, hardly any backing, and at a very fast tempo. You have to hear it to believe it. I wouldn't want everybody to do the song this way, but as a contrast to all the other covers, it's stunning.

Next comes Face of love, a brilliant song she wrote herself. Then, perhaps the centrepiece of the album - another new song, Life uncommon, in a medley with Go tell it on the mountain and From a distance. Absolute magic !

I wonder as I wander is another oldie, followed by two more of Jewel's own songs to round off a truly magical Christmas album.

Einfach Himmlisch (6. Oktober 2001)

Himmlisch und wunderbar! Manch einer muss zwar denken ich bin verrückt, wenn ich im Sommer Weihnachtslieder höre, aber bei Jewels zarter und schöner Stimme kann man einfach nicht anders!

Wunderschöne Weihnachts CD von der besten Sängerin der Welt (29. November 1999)

Jewel`s Weihnachts CD geht unter die Haut und stimmt in die Weihnachtszeit ein. Am besten sind definitv Winter Wonderland, Face of Love und ihre Weihnachtsversion von Hands.

Diese CD ist pure Joy.
