作者承認他從來不是那麼喜歡聖誕音樂,但是大衛聖誕專輯實在太棒了,讓他聽完後非常喜悅!(這篇簡直像粉絲寫的)
David begins Christmas From The Heart with several familiar
tunes, but have no fear! I promise you he sings them not only in such a
way that you'll forget you were ever tired of them, but with such (how
do you put his voice into words again?) next-to-Godliness that I simply
cannot deny the fact that it is the best I've ever heard the songs
sung. First up is "Joy To The World," which has an 'oo' intro to die for & sets the mood exquisitely well. "Angels We Have Heard On High" is sung with surprising maturity (yes, even for David!) & "O Come All Ye Faithful" features that clear, beautiful tone we all know & love. Mr. Archuleta enters epic territory on "Silent Night" with those strings! You feel like you're along for David's journey on "The First Noel,"
which with, among everything else, that "hallelujah" a little past the
halfway mark makes for a personal highlight. Then comes the
heartbreakingly gorgeous "O Holy Night." Goodness, this is too much.
Despite
having already reached what should be a lifetime limit of singing THAT
beautifully for THAT long, David continues on with "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" with guest Charice.
They sound good together--even if she makes you realize just how great
he is (if I'm being honest!). Alone again, Archie keeps his cool vibe
going with the extra-smooth "I'll Be Home For Christmas," but throws ya for a loop with "Pat-A-Pan."
As I've seen a number of you say... oh, to hear him do this live! He
sings some incredible harmonies here, though they can be found
throughout the album & are no small part in the reason I find this
album so special.
I can't help but feel that David must be tired from taking so many epic journeys as I listen to "What Child Is This," another gorgeous track. Boy wonder continues to put those amazing pipes to work by singing the foreign language songs "Riu Riu Chiu" & "Ave Maria,"
the latter of which is just incredible & holds a particularly
special place in my heart. David wraps things up with the album's sole
newly-written track "Melodies Of Christmas." Though an unmistakable pop Christmas song, Archie does a heck of a job keeping the focus on his wonderful voice.
Christmas From The Heart
is easily one of the best Christmas albums out there. There aren't even
that many--even of the ones I have--that I love, as I'm not the biggest
fan of Christmas music, but you wouldn't be able to tell that if you
saw me listening to this one because it's just so darn lovable (just,
of course, like David himself)! So, if you don't think Christmas music
could possibly be as blissful as I've described above, think again.
