Luis Miguel's strong, often serious voice isn't the first you'd think of to breathe life into a succession of giddy Christmas carols and holiday favorites. But the singer positively soars on Navidades, a slick collection of American classics translated into Spanish. He kicks things off with an inspired, big-band take on "Santa Claus Llego a la Ciudad" ("Santa Claus is Comin' to Town"), and the lush arrangement is indicative of the disc's classy, classic tone. Miguel emotes beautifully during "Te Deseo Muy Felices Fiestas" ("Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas") and "Blanca Navidad" ("White Christmas"). He offers inspired takes on the sentimental "Mi Humilde Oracion" (David Foster's modern holiday gem "My Grown-Up Christmas List") and Charlie Chaplin's "Smile" (an odd, if fitting, inclusion). The best, however, is a brassy, gospel-infused reworking of "Silent Night," complete with rousing chorus and blaring horns. It's a stirring, soulful disc closer, and the perfect bow on a glossy, glowing Christmas collection. --Joey Guerra

Summary: classic luis miguel 2006-12-12
Comment: i was kind of skeptical when i heard that luis miguel was going to do a christmas album with english covers translated into spanish, but now i have an album that i plan to play for many christmas's to come.luis has taken these christmas classics and given them his own personal touch, and it works. from upbeat tunes such as " va a nevar" and "santa claus llego a la ciudad" to ballads such as " te deseo muy felices fiestas" and "estare en mi casa esta navidad" luis proves once again his versatility as an artist. Going with the whole big band theme was a great choice for luismi. it suits him perfectly. a definate must own for fans of luis miguel and anyone who enjoys his music.
