Mariah Carey – Christmas Time Is In The Air Again single review

Christmas wouldnā€™t be the same without a festive tune from Mariah Carey. Since she releasedĀ All I Want For Christmas Is YouĀ in 1994 it has dominated most Christmas playlists over the years. In 2010 she released a second Christmas album,Ā Merry Christmas II You, and scored another festive hit with the uptempoĀ Oh Santa. With the festive season upon us once again, Mariah has selected another cut from that album to release;Ā Christmas Time Is In The Air Again.

Christmas Time Is In The Air AgainĀ is one of the original tracks recorded forĀ Merry Christmas II YouĀ and is a million miles away from her previous Christmas singles. Rather than opting for another uptempo track, Mariah has selected the rather sultry and wintry track for this festive season. Opening with a luscious string section the ballad is pure class featuring Mariah singing in her infamous whisper register. Donā€™t worry though she does unleash those powerful pipes in the songā€™s second half soaring to notes most of us could only ever dream of being able to reach.

Classy, soulful and sumptuousĀ Christmas Time Is In The Air AgainĀ is yet another festive classic from the Queen of Christmas music herself. It should also propel herĀ Merry Christmas II YouĀ album back up the charts and get it some more well-deserved attention. If you donā€™t have the album yet we urge you to go and buy a copy. If you loved 1994ā€™sMerry ChristmasĀ then youā€™ll loveĀ Merry Christmas II You. No one does Christmas as well as Mariah.
