Summary: Christmas Spirit at it's best!
Comment: I bought this CD before Halloween and I've been listening to it everyday since. Even non David A. fans will love this. It has a spiritual quality that I haven't heard latley. LOVE "Pat-a-Pan" and "Riu Riu Chiu" the most! Silent Night and What Child is this come a close second. The first song starts out kind of cheap sounding. My first thought was, "Oh, No! David had some local non-pro make this Cd," but as the song develops, I forgot my initial reaction. The rest of the songs are well-done from the start. Definately add this to your Christmas music list this year!

Summary: You're better off buying Midwinter Graces by Tori Amos
Comment: The only thing this album has that will knock anyone off their feet are the pictures of Archuleta, and if you're not a rabid fan then you probably won't be interested at all.
I've never seen such a drab and uneventful collection of Christmas cliché in my life--oh wait, yes I have, in just about every crappy Christmas album that any artist has put out in the past 20 years.
Pros:
Archuleta's voice is spectacular
He doesn't disgrace any of the songs he covers.
Cons:
He brings almost nothing new to the table
It's the same junk we've been hearing for ages
There are so many slow songs I fell asleep before track 8.
Almost every song has the exact same sounding voice, regardless of tempo. It sounds very computerized.
Overall I would say that any David Archuleta fan will find this album a must and it's worth the price. If you're not necessarily a part of the Archuleta Zealotry Club and you just want a unique holiday album then you should probably look into Midwinter Graces by Tori Amos.
With an impressive set of classic interpretations and solid originals, Midwinter Graces blows Christmas From The Heart out of the water.

Summary: So Very Beautiful...
Comment: One can only wonder what the future holds for such a pure and powerful talent. Let's hope it is not forgotten in the midst of all the other voices we hear. A very beautiful collection, his voice seems to capture the true spirit of the holidays.

Summary: One of my favorite Christmas CDs!
Comment: A huge American Idol fan (no, I'm not a teenager!), I purchased this CD on a whim thinking it would be beautiful, given David Archuleta's wonderful voice. Wow! I was blown away! I listened to the entire CD three times last night and loved every song. I'd highly recommend this CD to anyone who wants to increase their holiday music collection and to anyone who thought David Archuleta also deserved to win American Idol. Christmas from the Heart is now one of my top three holiday CDs!

Summary: the sweetest
Comment: I love Archuleta's voice. it reminds me of John Denver in the natural beauty. He saols up and down his register and there is such an honesty to his sound. A great Christmas album.
