"These Are Special Times 2.0"

[SuperLove4Celine]

With Christmastime fast approaching, some of us are starting to pull out our copies of "These Are Special Times." The sounds of "O Holy Night," "Christmas Eve," "Don't Save It All For Christmas Day" and "The Magic Of Christmas Day" can be heard coming from our bedrooms and living rooms. This got me to thinking if Céline will release a second Christmas album in the near or distant future, and if so, what this second holiday collection will look like. What would you all like for this follow-up to "These Are Special Times" look like? Would you want it to stick to traditional holiday favorites? Would you want it to include primarily new material?

 

Here is what my dream "These Are Special Times 2.0" album would look like (tracks in no particular order):

 

1. Silent Night

2. O Christmas Tree

3. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

4. Joy To The World

5. Do You Hear What I Hear

6. Carol Of The Bells

7. Silver Bells

8. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

9. The First Noel

10. Jingle Bell Rock

11. New Song (written by Diane Warren)

12. New Song (written by Maria Christensen)

13. New Duet (feat. Shania Twain)

14. New Song

15. New Song

Deluxe Edition Tracks

16. I Met An Angel (On Christmas Day)

17. Petit Papa Noel (feat. The Chipmunks)

18. Winter Wonderland (feat. The Dion Family)

 

While I would never expect to actually get an 18-track Christmas album from Céline, it is my dream collection for her next holiday release.

 

Happy holidays, everyone!

that song list has pretty much cover every thing i wanted Celine to do!!

but maybe i'll add

Let it snow, let it snow let it snow

baby it's cold outside (duet with someone)

Angels we have heard on high

and maybe 1 or 2 french xmas songs!!!

[CelineDionFreak]

I would love this! I would love her to do Silver Bells and Carol of the Bells! She should have one in french... And one produced by David Foster!

[Del]

One of my favourite Christmas songs is Old Toy Train. Would be nice if Celine recorded this one if she were to do a second Christmas album.

[Shaun]

I would like a second Christmas album but I also kinda like the fact that "These Are Special Times" continues to sell every year and is the Celine Christmas album.

Here's mine!

 

1) Grown Up Christmas List - with David Foster

 

 

Oh, yes, yes, yes! Love this song, especially the Amy Grant version. But I"m sure Celine's would be so much better.

6) Baby It's Cold Outside - with Michael Buble

 

 

Michael Buble just did a new duet of this song w. Idina Menzel, if you're interested.

OMG! Yes Celine would be soooo much better! Why doesn't anyone listen to us!? (the fans that know better, that is!)

Oh bugger. Thought I'd thought of a decent Christmas duet he hadn't done yet! Lol

[sfbaysinger]

She did a lot of the songs I wanted her to do on the first one, so i really don't know what I would want. I'd love her to do one though, I know that. Oh, and put "I Met An Angel on Christmas Day" on there. Great rare/unreleased/unknown song by 95 percent of fandom.

[Ukrfan]

Mary, did you know.

[nuts2you]

I have to add good luck trying to find this album anywhere , cause I cant find it, likely I have a copy of it,

[Davey84]

I would love to have a new Christmas Album. I don't really care which kind of songs are on them, as long as they aren't the standard ones that have been covered a zillion times, nor I Met An Angel, cos common that song is 15 years old already! Yes it is a great song, but on a new album I want NEW songs!

 

There is one Christmas Song that I would have LOVED if Céline had recorded it (first). It's Faith Hills A Baby Changes Everything. It is such a powerful and meaning ful song, it can bring tears to my eyes! I don't know if Céline could anything else to this song, so I aint wishing it for a new album, I just wished Céline was the first one recording it

I'm already diving into my holiday music!

 

Celine, Faith, Rat Pack, etc. -- but no one sings Christmas songs quite like the warm, like-honey, smokey firewood, velvety smooth, hauntingly nostalgic voice of Karen Carpenter....

 

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Speaking of TAST... the album re-enters the Billboard 200 at No. 128 this week! :-)
