I am a huge music lover, and I LOVE Andrea Bocelli and The Canadian Tenors, so when I got the opportunity to check out both of their holiday albums, I jumped for joy. (I mean that quite literally!)
My Christmas is Andrea Bocelli's first-ever Christmas recording, and it is so beautiful. It is full of deeply moving, peaceful and uplifting songs. I was pleasantly surprised by some of his special guests, such as: Mary J. Blige and Natalie Cole. His version of "What Child Is This", done with Mary J. Blige is one of my favorites on the CD. My other favorite is "The Lord's Prayer" with special guests, The Mormon Tabernacle Choir. So fabulously done...
Their CD The Perfect Gift is my new favorite CD of all time. It is so dreamy and inspiring. My new favorite song of all time is their "Instrument of Peace." I recognized the words immediately from one of my favorite prayers. Let me just share a few of the inspiring words -
Where there is hatred, let me bring love.
Where there is doubt, let me bring faith.
Where there is falsehood, let me bring truth.
Where there is pain, I'll comfort you.
Where there is silence, let me sing praise.
Where there's despair, let me bring hope...
And with these words I speak
Grant that I may not so seek
To be heard, but to hear
To be consoled, but to console
Not to be seen, but to see
To be loved, but to love...
The words are so full of meaning and a message we all need to hear. And they sing it with so much passion, you can't help but be inspired. LOVE it! Plus, their "Wintersong" with Sarah McLachlan is peaceful bliss. It gives me the goosebumps, it is so good. Their version of "Hallelujah" is perfect! Like I said, this is my favorite CD ever, and it plays in my house on repeat almost all day long. My new dream is to see them live in concert! Ahhhh...that would be heavenly.
I highly suggest you not walk, but run to the nearest store and get both of these CDs. You may want to get several for anyone and everyone on your holiday shopping list. Even better, just order them online. You can buy The Canadian Tenors "The Perfect Gift" on their website or Amazon. You can buy Andrea Bocelli "My Christmas" on his Amazon site.
Plus, (1) lucky reader is going to win (1) Andrea Bocelli CD and...
(1) lucky reader will win (1) The Canadian Tenors CD!! Merry Christmas to you!
