While I did not purchase the volume 2(since the preview tracks were not enjoyable), I think this volume may be the best or next best in the series. The first Very Special Christmas album was a great album. It has almost all classic rock Christmas songs that have become staples every Christmas. And some would say they are overplayed. But this volume has some truly great renditions of some traditional songs as well as some even better original tracks that you may not have heard or get to on the local FM stations. Among the traditionals are Sting's "I Saw Three Ships", Natalie Merchant's "Children Go Where I send the, And A decent Sheryl Crow's "Blue Christmas". Most notable among the new tracks are Smashing Pumpkins' "Christmastime", Blues Travelers' "Christmas" , And the Christmas Allstars' "Santa Baby". Enyas rendition of Silent Night is fair. And Mary J. Blige's Christmas in the City" would be a must for those living in New York or those that just love the city of New York. While I didn't really care for the No Doubt original "Oi to the World", it might be just what the ex punk rocker turned parent might like to play as an alternative to the Christmas fluff. I am a fan of No Doubt, but I didn't care for this one much. Thats not to say its unlikable. Its just not my cup of tea. As for the other songs, I didn't care for them much. Lets see. That's 9 noteworthy songs with 6 that I found very enjoyable. But listen to the previews and judge for yourself. But if you are looking on adding some rock/alternative/rap sung songs to you christmas collection, I would definitely say buy it. This is a good addition to the first volume.

Several very good songs and many forgettable ones. I enjoyed songs from Sting, Natalie Merchant, No Doubt, and Chris Cornell...and found myself skipping the others to listen to the favorites.
"Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins, but Oi to the world and everybody wins!"
This is obviously the third volume in the highly successful Very Special Christmas series. It came out in 1997 and most of the performers here are ones that were popular at that time. Most of the performances are good, with nothing being flat out terrible, which is always a bonus. Which ones you like best will depend on your taste of course. Personally, I think I like the songs by Sting, Natalie Merchant, No Doubt and Chris Cornell the best. But that's just me, you might like some of the others better.
This cd is very good and should be in anybody collection
"If you're going to write new christmas stuff, you'd better be good at it or else stick to the classics"

The artists who stuck to the classics always come out better on these albums. It is a dangerous thing to write a new one unless you can come up with something really significant. Sadly "Christmas Time" by Smashing Pumpkins is not. It's maudlin (meaning sickly sweet and whingey) and the words are worthless. "Christmas time is fun presents for everyone" Ohhh please. Perhaps Bob Geldof and Bono could teach some wealthy rockstars that not everyone gets presents at Christmas and it ain't always fun for those whose families have difficulties or who are under persecution or war. Better to teach the real meaning of Christmas- that Christ was born to offer a new start to everyone. This makes every difficulty you are under fade and is a much better message than "presents for everyone". Sorry for the diehard pumpkins fans. I actually like their stuff, but Christmas Time is pumpkin pulp. hohoho
