It’s Christmas Time is one part holiday, one part rock, one part cheese and all parts wonderful. Seven of the 10 tracks are pretty rockin', and Elvis’ voice carries them all. More cloying than cute, more maddening than catchy, 'The Little. Sorry drummer fans, but this popular carol ranks absolute last on my list.

This Xmas Background track is suitable for your Kids Fun Holiday movie or Jingle video. I’m pretty sure that the line “Santa Claus is coming down your chimney tonight” is not about his want of milk and cookies. A carol has to be traditional or biblical in nature. Inspired by classic pop rock’n’roll festive songs, this stylish track captures the spirit of Jingle Bell Rock, Rocking Around The Christmas Tree and All I Want For Christmas Is You.
