I think the title says it all. If I could give 1/2 stars, I'd give it 3 1/2.

The warmth and talent in this artist's songs are thoroughly enjoyable! Miss Estefan's arrangements and orchestrations for all 11 tracks on this album are well-done. The list of songs includes some more-traditional and some more-contemporary...

I Love Gloria Estefan...but this album is not her style. Songs sound forced, sometimes out of control. One or two songs are ok.

When it is time to break out your Christmas collection once a year you might want to add this disc;you will definitely play it year in and year out. Gloria Estefan does a very good job with the traditional songs of Christmas , adding a little flair, extended notes that swing but never over done. There is a certain Latin jazz feel to this disc because of the percussion and the background singers at times harmonizing like The Manhattan Transfer. There is plenty of variety so really it is a mix of styles but always with class. She reminds me at times like the late female Karen Carpenter of The Carpenters who have a good Christmas disc too. Her voice is very sweet yet forceful enough to grab your attention. The arrangements are elegant and impeccable. The top notch production is by Phil Ramone with various arrangers but most noticeably beautiful when the orchestra is conducted by Patrick Williams. Top tunes include the Mel Torme penned made famous by Nat King Cole song "The Christmas Song," the swinging ""Let it Snow," the simple yet eloquent "I'll be Home For Christmas" that has an inspiring choir that elevates the song to another level, the Irving Berlin masterpiece "White Christmas" that is stripped to guitar and bass and programmed music, Gloria Estefans own composition and title track "Christmas Through Your Eyes" and the only Spanish song that has plenty of sabor "Arbolito de Navidad." If you are loking for some fine Christmas music for your collection try Gloria Estefan, you won't be dissapointed.

Although other reviewers do not like Gloria's "I'll Be Home For Christmas," I consider this arrangement of the Christmas classic worth the price of the CD. The complex harmonies sung a cappella by the American Boy Choir with only a hint of orchestral bells before the chorus create a hauntingly beautiful rendition like none ever before enjoyed. The impeccable diction and precision of this fine choir adds to the grandeur of this performance. This amazing track along with the other songs on this CD have made me into a tremendous fan and admirer of Gloria Estefan.

Merry Christmas!
