Christmas [Ruby Red Vinyl]

by Cher

Overview

The pop icon's first-ever holiday-themed album, 2023's Christmas, finds Cher putting her distinctive stamp on both originals and a handful of yuletide favorites. The record follows 2013's Closer to the Truth and features several newly penned anthems, including the dance-oriented lead-off single "DJ Play a Christmas Song." More club-ready tracks arrive with the EDM-infused "Angels in the Snow" and the hip-hop-influenced "Drop Top Sleigh Ride," the latter of which features a guest appearance by rapper Tyga. Other guest spots include Michael Buble and Cyndi Lauper on "Home" and "Put a Little Holiday in Your Heart," respectively. Thanks to a little holiday studio magic, we also get Cher dueting with Stevie Wonder on his 1967 hit "What Christmas Means to Me" and Darlene Love on her 1963 classic "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)," both of which nicely balance an upbeat contemporary energy with the storied Motown sound of the original recordings. ~ Matt Collar
