Product Description The first holiday album from super-star Faith Hill, 'Joy To The World' is a joy to behold, featuring beautiful new versions of ten traditional and modern classics, complete with horns, strings, woodwings, percussion and chorales, much like the big-band orchestras of the 40's and 50's. One of the most popular music stars in America, Faith Hill celebrates the joy-and faith- of the season with 'Joy to the World.'

Faith & Joy! December 1, 2008 CJ (Wisconsin) This is an outstanding CD! Faith has the most beautiful strong voice for all the songs on this CD. Not a bad song on the CD. I just wish there would have been even more songs. I'm already hoping she makes another Christmas CD next year. A must have! 5 Shining Stars!!*****
Christmas Carols Done Right! December 1, 2008 Leslie Moschetti (CO USA) While I like Faith Hill, this is the first CD I have purchased. Wow!! The songs are sung in a traditional chord, not all tanged up Country beat. I have been looking for simple Christmas Carols that my kids can learn from (seeings how all the PC BS has kept the public schools from singing Away in a Manger) and Voila have found it........Faith does an excellent job of singing so that everyone can sing along!!

I was SOOO looking forward to this album but was SOOOO disappointed when I listened to it. I love Faith Hill but it sounded nothing like her.
not so joyful November 27, 2008 E. Seagle (Chico, CA, USA) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This CD was an extremely disappointment! If I did not look at the cover, I would not have know it was Faith Hill. Faith is a great singer, but this CD does nothing for her.
Good, traditional style Christmas classics November 27, 2008 Long Ago 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Every year I buy one new Christmas album for the season. This year I bought Faith Hill's Joy To The World. When it comes to Christmas music I'm pretty much a traditionalist, preferring the Christmas classics presented in their traditional renditions and arrangements. I don't want to hear Silent Night in a Blues rendition or The Little Drummer Boy with a country twang. Faith Hill, though she's a country music star, really did a nice job of staying traditional in this album. The arrangements are traditional and she's not infused them with elements that might be more indicative of the country genre. In some of them she's used the backing of choirs and the accompaniment of orchestras and symphonies. In another song she performs a beautiful a capella arrangement of the Little Drummer Boy accompanied by only background vocals. So I'm overall very pleased with this year's Christmas album purchase and look forward to enjoying it for years to come.
