A good Christmas compilation should contain
the following things--a selection of old classics to warm your cockles by
the fireside, some of
the classic pop titles that people always seem to find
themselves singing along to in
the pub on Christmas Eve, some carols and a handful of oddities to keep everyone on
their toes.
The Best Christmas Album in
the World Ever manages to fulfil all
these criteria--on
the classic front
there is Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" and Dean Martin's "Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow", on
the classic pop front
there's Slade's "Merry Christmas Everybody" and Wizzard's "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday", traditional carols "Silent Night" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" head
the field and as far as oddities go, look no fur
ther than
the double whammy of "Lonely Pup (In A Christmas Shop)", courtesy of Adam Faith, and "Angels" by Robbie Williams (a pretty tenuous inclusion, especially considering
the angel in
the title is his mum). All in all, small gripes aside,
The Best Christmas Album In
The World Ever manages to live up to its name.
