Amazon Description:
What if someone made a Christmas album for everybody else? That\'s exactly what Melissa Etheridge has done. Working alongside her producer David Cole, Melissa\'s songs celebrate a spiritual time of year where people can rejoice in their traditional, or non-traditional ways, and celebrate a winter solstice filled with love and peace. This ten song album has newly composed songs such as \"Ring The Bells,\" \"Light A Light,\" and \"It\'s Christmas Time\" interspersed with traditional holiday standards such as \"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas\" and \"Blue Christmas.\" This album begs the question, \"If we\'re all talking about peace on earth, what if we all concentrated on peace on earth and made it happen?\"

Allmusic Review:
Melissa Etheridge\'s Christmas album -- released in 2008, reissued in deluxe form the following year -- is faithful to her blues-rock beginnings while retaining a pleasant, relaxed, seasonal vibe. To Etheridge\'s credit, she devotes a considerable chunk of the record to originals, mostly slower, meditative pieces, but she kicks up the tempo on \"It\'s Christmas Time,\" which stands alongside the bluesy shuffle of \"Merry Christmas Baby\" and \"Blue Christmas\" as the liveliest stuff here.
