About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

It's no secret that Sting is a serious man, so it's only logical that his holiday album -- his first new music since the Police reunion, not that it really matters -- is a serious endeavor, thank you. No niceties for him, no comforts of carols; he favors formal over familiar, writing madrigals, not ditties. The austerity here is genuine, not affected, and the cerebral nature of the album is gently fascinating. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Customer Reviews

a genuine holiday CDby Terry_M

November 24, 2009: when pop artists do a holiday (Xmas) CD the effort can be frightening (Dylan) or just curious - with styles ranging from icy (jazz) to rock 'n roll. Sting's CD is different. though it eschews specific holiday iconography, all of the songs fit together as examples of genuine winter/christmas music - the music that has been handed down in hymnals and song books, and enjoyed for decades.

to those who find the music dreary - ok, its not for you. but listen to a clip or two. if you like the clips, buy the CD.

November 20, 2009: What a wonderful CD this is. Lovely music with vocals befitting this time of year. Like a walk alone in the snowy forest, the wonder of it all appears around you in quiet ways. This CD is musical version of that experience. Enjoy!
