Positive: Mandisa's vocals really shine on her renditions of 4 Christmas songs. My favorite is the only original song ("Christmas Makes Me Cry"). This song has a beautiful melody and Matthew West's guest vocals add to it a lot. The other 3 are remakes of classic Christmas tunes, my favorite of them being "O Holy Night."
Negative: "CMMC" is the only track that actually sounds like it belongs in 2007. The others have a big band 1940s feel. They are pretty good, but I wish they could have been a little more updated. Also, I think Mandisa deserves a full album. A 4-song, barely 20-minute EP is just not enough! I think 'Disa could make killer versions of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" and "Breath Of Heaven." Since "God Speaking" was included on the WOW Gospel Christmas compilation this year, and is also her 2nd single, she could have re-recorded it for this EP too.
