I love when she forgets what the words are and, instead of making the mistake obvious, she seamlessly substitutes other words into the song. "Think you had the best of me, baby you don't know me now, you don't know me 'cause you're dead wrong" is pretty great compared to the one time she sang something along the lines of "all I ever wanted was horses." ETA: Okay, I don't know where my brain got the "horses" thing from, but my point was that the mistakes made during the performance today were covered much better than when she performed "Because of You" at the Echo Awards.

Your brain is right Censor, she did get the words wrong and sang "all I wanted was horses" somewhere in Breakaway on SNL, I believe.

I feel that her voice has been changed since her pregnancy. Maybe, I want Kelly to train her voice. She seems to be a little bit tired when she sings.... However, it's so soulful and still great.

It is so funny because everyone was ready to absolutely hate on Winter Dreams when we saw it was called "Brandon's Song." It is one of my favorites, as it is for most on the board. Wrapped in Red, Every Christmas and Winters Dream have really held up well for me. I also love Run Run Rudolph and that was the cover I was LEAST excited for when I saw the track listing. UTT is a fav but I don't play it as much since I can hear it on my local AC station quite often and I played it so much last year.

"Winter Dreams" is extremely good. "Every Christmas" is phenomenal on every level. I'll be pissed if that never sees a holiday release.

Wrapped In Red is actually my least favorite original on the album. Never quite got the love for it.

Slight correction but she been around doing this longer than Adele, so not sure she reminds me of Adele as much as Adele reminds me of her. I might be taken as being shady but its actually a compliment. There is a certain raspy, hoarseness in her voice that actually makes it more interesting to me. Its less perfect and note focused and more soulful, to me anyways. It adds a layer of life into that performance than some others of that song. I'm not saying her voice is sterile just that her voice is less Celine like and more soulful like in that clip.

So I'm guessing I need to listen to "Winter Dreams". I have only listened to the singles from the album. What other tracks should I check out?

It's one of the best/most coheisive Christmas albums to come out in years. "Winter Dreams" is great, but so is pretty much everything. The other great original is "Every Christmas", at least that's my favourite after UTT, WIR and WD. Her versions of the traditional songs are really stellar, too. "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas", "Please Come Home For Christmas", "Silent Night", "I'll Be Home For Christmas" and "White Christmas" are probably my favourites though. But if you like Christmas music, hers is definitely an album to get.

My favorite traditional song is Please Come Home For Christmas. Those vocals slay me every time.

She really did have a different tone in that BOY performance. Did the pregnancy turn her soulful side to maximum?
Skyfall teas tbh.

Not surprised about SN. It's one of the best on the album.
