AMG Review of Platinum Christmas

Zac Johnson
All Music Guide

A collection of traditional and original holiday songs makes up this release from BMG/Jive Records. Contemporary hitmakers TLC, 'N Sync, Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys, Christina Aguilera, and others perform their own takes on Christmas cheer. While the majority of the artists are bright pop stars or soulful urban vocalists, the Christian alternative band Jars of Clay and jam-rockers the Dave Matthews Band also make appearances.
