There was something about 'Return To Cookie Mountain' that intrigued me and I tried repeatedly to get into that record. Ultimately, I came away liking only a couple of the songs but also with great respect for the band's creativity. It was an unusual combination of feelings.
For me, 'Dear Science' resolves that conflict. There is no sacrifice in imagination or creativity and the songs have a more accessible style which peaks in track two, 'Crying'. However, there is no lack of dark sentiment here, both musically and lyrically. In particular, 'Halfway Home' and 'Family Tree' two of the record's highlights, generate a feeling of weird dread and disturbance due to the ideas and pictures they suggest but never fully reveal.

Has there been an album by Celtic Woman that hasn't offended me? No. But I've always bit my lip and shrugged it off. But this album really pushed me over the edge. I heard it at my cousin Bike's Christmas party last year- I couldn't believe what I was hearing! Are they deaf?, I thought to myself. I guess no one was paying attention to the lyrics- this album is filled with filthy innuendo! I am offended and disgusted! And they call this a CHRISTMAS ALBUM? I guess Christmas has changed... sigh.

I like Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Their first CD (CHRISTMAS EVE AND OTHER STORIES) is easily one of my top ten favorite Christmas albums. (Maybe even top five.) Two years ago, my wife and I had the pleasure of seeing them in a sold-out concert performance in Houston. And I hope they continue to make great Christmas music in the future, although I've heard that LOST CHRISTMAS EVE will be their final venture into the Christmas music arena.
LOST CHRISTMAS EVE will not disappoint anyone who loves hard rock instrumental. It will, in fact, disappoint only a few Christmas music enthusiasts who enjoy a wide variety of Christmas music; and anyone who does is probably already a TSO fan to some degree. LCE has some true power-house songs such as ... Read More:

With all due respect to all you people who loved TSO, I think you should wake up and go straight to the nearest CD store and buy Savatage albums and give it a listen because TSO=Savatage! and Basically the Christmas Eve/Sarajevo song is basically a song on the Dead winter dead album for Savatage! Even Back to a reason II is the same Back to a Reason song sung by Jon Oliva in Poets and Madmen album for SAVATAGE! So,, why does TSO get the credit and Savatage doesnt! Is this Fair!

There is a LOT of information on this disc. They explain how surround sound works and the best setups. They discuss HD video and how to get the optimal image from your TV.
Worth the price. It really helped me configure my HD TVs to look their best.

I have loved James Taylor music since my teens. This Christmas cd is wonderful. The song choices are varied and he only gets better with time.

This is not only the perfect musical accompaniment for the holidays (i.e. day after Thanksgiving through New Year's Day), it's a fabulous jazz piano album that you can listen throughout the year. One of my all time favorite recordings, period.

"This Warm December" is the first volume of what hopefully will be a long-standing Christmas offering from Brushfire Records artists. The CD is 11 songs, somewhat short at a bit over 31 minutes, but the songs are well done.
You've got a good mix of standards and covers. While the covers are good, I'm focusing mostly on the four new songs for the review.
"No Christmas for Me" by Zee Avi is a new song I think we're going to hear a lot particularly in love song dedications of people wanting their baby back. Avi sounds a lot like Madeline Peyroux to me with a very light jazzy voice.
"Stuck at the Airport" by Money Mark is another new song. Definitely a theme many of us can identify with.
"Christmas Baby" by G. Love is an upbeat, ... Read More:

I've read other reviews and all the ones 3* and below seem to be looking for a live performance video and not the Christmas story it was meant to be. I absolutely LOVE this video. I've seen them live 4 times as well and would love a DVD of that, but I wonder if they could possibly capture the magic of the live show. This DVD attempts to tell a story with music and I feel it does a wonderful job. I get chills EVERY time I watch this video and usually it's the one thing that can get me into the Christmas spirit anymore. The music is absolutely uplifting! while the story is more than adequate. Go with the vast majority and purchase this item. You won't be sorry.
