Always brings a smile to my face (4 stars)
Even though I wasn't a mondo New Kids fan like seemingly every other early-teen girl back then, I did buy this album shortly after its release in that other dimension known as 1989 and I thought it was okay, yet it stuck with me for my not being all that crazy about it.
One *would* think that as you grow older, you'd outgrow the teen stuff (or the so-called bubblegum sound), but "Merry Merry Christmas" retains its charm for me all these years later and I'm very happy to have this album in my music collection again.
Now, there *are* some tunes that sound very dated such as "This One's For the Children" and "Funky Funky Christmas." Then again, the dated sounds of albums are what make, or should make, the listening experience complete for those who were around when it was originally released as well as for those who weren't even a thought.
The album cover captures the feel-good image of New Kids as well as the music itself, with pretty good renditions of Christmas classics such as "White Christmas" and "Little Drummer Boy." In that sense, the 1980's ended on a pretty good note (along with the rest of the string of solid pop albums released that year).
Listening to anything New Kids On the Block does bring a smile to my face. - Donna Di Giacomo |  | | | Love it! (4 stars)
This is a cheesy but fun Christmas CD for you NKOTB fans out there. This CD brings back so many memories! | | | | A New Kids Christmas (5 stars)
I bought this album to reminisce my childhood Christmases since they reunited and totally fell in love all over again. This album is worth every penny and even after Christmas, I find myself popping the CD into my stereo! | | | | Funky Funky X-Mas Indeed (4 stars)
I remember listening to this album when I was a kid and it is still fun to listen to as an adult. Classic Christmas tunes like The Christmas Song, mixed in with the non-traditional, like Funky Funky X-Mas, make this Christmas CD fun and if you're a New Kids fan it's a must have. | | | | Love it!!!!! (5 stars)
I have been a NKOTB fan since they came out with their first album and I am so happy to have this on CD now! I was almost afraid to play my old tape because it was so worn. My kids love the silly songs, and I like the traditional as well as the original songs on this CD. | | | |
