Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review:
She's been hailed for her multi-octave vocal range--a tool that sometimes detracts from her pop recordings, but actually works quite beautifully in the context of this charming holiday collection. Fans will surely approve of Carey's renditions of slinky secular songs like 'Christmas (Baby, Please Come Home)' and a nicely subdued 'All I Want for Christmas Is You'. But where she really surprises is in her unadorned delivery of traditional carols, highlighted by 'Silent Night' (which she sings quietly, avoiding the temptation to wail those high notes) and 'Jesus, Oh What a Wonderful Child'. Merry Christmas is a must for die-hards and a pleasant surprise for the unconverted. --David Sprague

- The BEST Christmas album to dateI saw this and already have it but I just wanted to say that out of all the artists that have released their Christmas album - this one by Lady Mariah Carey is the BEST to date. Also, because it's 14 years old it's really cheap. So - buy the BEST Christmas album as the bargain of the century.

- the full range and beauty of her voiceMost traditional christmas songs are sung in a traditional way and have survived for so long because they sound so good.For a pop star to come along and make many of them sound even better is quite a feat but that is what Mariah Carey has done here.The full range and beauty of her voice are on display on this cd - when you listen to O Holy Night and God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen ask yourself this:is there anyone else in the world who could sing these this well? Only bettered by the christmas cd "christmas ... Read More

- A Christmas Album That Works Outside The Festive Season AlsoFestive albums seem like a time-stalling process, however not every artist that releases one can claim it sold 16 million copies. Merry Christmas was another success from the legendary Miss Mariah. Aside from the expected covers of classics, which she manages to do brilliantly, Carey creates some of her own Christmas masterpieces. The up-tempo plea of "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" and beautiful portrayal of isolated emotions in "Miss You Most (At Christmas Time)" are enough to weigh up the various ... Read More

- An absolutely wonderful Christmas albumFew commercial Christmas albums really appeal to me - too many of them mangle the traditional classics I love, especially the hymns, with all sorts of fancy modern sounds that ring hollow to my ears, and, loving the traditional songs so much, few modern Christmas tunes manage to win me over. Ten years after its release, though, Mariah Carey's Merry Christmas CD remains a perennial Christmas favorite of mine. Mariah's vocal talent puts her head and shoulders above every female vocalist out there, and she ... Read More
