Product Description
A Tweenies Christmas comes hot on the heels of their sell-out stadium tours, the success of their debut album Friends Forever and the continued success of their TV show. Filled equally with new compositions and cover versions of favourite festive tunes (there's seven of each on the album), this is the ideal collection for getting children (and parents) into the Christmas party mood. Opener "I Believe in Christmas" is a swinging, pop number in the style of S Club 7's "Reach" but with added sleigh bells. If it wasn't for the baby-speak Tweenie vocals, it would be difficult to differentiate between this track and Rachel and Co "doing their thing". Another new tune "Light Up the World" is a warm, feel-good song set on Christmas Eve, while "Fab-A-Rooney Christmas" is the Tweenies jovial Christmas anthem. At times though the toddler-talk (or singing) does complement the song, for instance Milo's nasal rendition of "Merry Xmas Everybody" almost resembles Noddy Holder's blaring vocals on the Slade original. --John Galilee

tweenies without the irritation!!!, 06 Oct 2005
I have just bought this for the second time (1st one got mutilated!). Normally I cannot stand the tweenies but this CD is really quite good, and much better than some of the rubbish childrens music you can buy. It even manages to get both my kids away from the telly and up and dancing together without any arguments!
christmas goodies, 12 Dec 2003
it speaks for its self. the kids loved this one.only downside is its for christmas hence the 3 stars
fab-a-roony!, 24 Nov 2003
if you are the sort of person who buys a "childs" christmas cd for your little one, but then feels like chucking it out of the window after a week of non-stop play, then you really should try this. don't let "The Tweenies" tag put you off, what you get here is a cd full of modern, well produced music that wouldn't sound out of place in an adult disco (some of it sounds more like S-Club than they do..). Your kids will love it, and you'll find yourself singing along too, i guarantee it. This is the only childrens christmas cd i've ever bought that i can enjoy too. RECOMMENDED.
excellent fun for all the family at Christmas, 13 Jan 2002
I can honestly say I didn't play any other Christmas Album, my Son and I just loved it(and he is only 1 years old), we danced and we sang, I thought it was just great. The songs were very hip-hop with a very exciting feeling that Christmas was on it's way. With a variety of childrens traditional carols and new songs sang by the tweenies, a great addition to anyones cd collection for Christmas.
