This is what I've been waiting for! November 27, 2009 S. Matson 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I loved David's voice when I followed him on Idol, but I had no interest in buying his first CD. His voice was wasted on the teeny bopper songs. Here, finally, is an album that showcases his beautiful voice. I heard the first few bars of him singing "Joy to the World" and had tears in my eyes. His voice is a work of art, and sounds truly beautiful on this album.
"CHRISTmas from the Heart" is the perfect tittle November 26, 2009 Bob Waskiewicz (Wintersville, Ohio United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
"CHRISTmas from the Heart"is filled with the true meaning of CHRISTmas.My favorite cut from the CD is my all time favorite CHRISTmas song,"O Holy Night." There's not too many singers that can sing this beutifull number,but David's version is fantastic,along with
"Joy to the World,O come All Ye Faitful,and a cut written by David,"Melodies of CHRISTmas."Charice Pempengco,a youtube star collaborates with Archuleta on this cut and the Judy Garland Classic,"Have yourself a Merry little Christmas."
CHRISTmas from the Heart" is the perfect tittle,and a CHRISTmas CD I'll enjoy for many years.
One of the best! November 26, 2009 davidhq (Illinois) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
David has amazed me since the very start. His ability to convey so much emotion through his music is absolutely amazing and I love him for that! I smiled through this entire album, it's definitely one of my favorites and you can bet that I'll be listening to it with my family at Christmas. I just know they'll love it as much as I do! If you haven't purchased this yet, you must! It's worth every penny.
Christmas Spirit at it's best! November 24, 2009 Mom in Utah (Salt Lake City, Utah United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this CD before Halloween and I've been listening to it everyday since. Even non David A. fans will love this. It has a spiritual quality that I haven't heard latley. LOVE "Pat-a-Pan" and "Riu Riu Chiu" the most! Silent Night and What Child is this come a close second. The first song starts out kind of cheap sounding. My first thought was, "Oh, No! David had some local non-pro make this Cd," but as the song develops, I forgot my initial reaction. The rest of the songs are well-done from the start. Definately add this to your Christmas music list this year!
You're better off buying Midwinter Graces by Tori Amos November 24, 2009 S. Cooper 2 out of 12 found this review helpful
The only thing this album has that will knock anyone off their feet are the pictures of Archuleta, and if you're not a rabid fan then you probably won't be interested at all.
I've never seen such a drab and uneventful collection of Christmas cliché in my life--oh wait, yes I have, in just about every crappy Christmas album that any artist has put out in the past 20 years.
Pros:
Archuleta's voice is spectacular
He doesn't disgrace any of the songs he covers.
Cons:
He brings almost nothing new to the table
It's the same junk we've been hearing for ages
There are so many slow songs I fell asleep before track 8.
Almost every song has the exact same sounding voice, regardless of tempo. It sounds very computerized.
Overall I would say that any David Archuleta fan will find this album a must and it's worth the price. If you're not necessarily a part of the Archuleta Zealotry Club and you just want a unique holiday album then you should probably look into Midwinter Graces by Tori Amos.
With an impressive set of classic interpretations and solid originals, Midwinter Graces blows Christmas From The Heart out of the water.
