Released as an exclusive at Target stores for the holiday season of 2007, the year between
Taylor Swift’s 2006 debut and her 2007 breakthrough
Fearless, The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection balances
Swift’s pop and country roots quite well. She contributes two originals - “Christmases When You Were Mine” and “Christmas Must Be Something More” -- to a collection that features the classics “Santa Baby,” “Silent Night,” “White Christmas,” and
Wham!'s modern-day standard “Last Christmas,” giving them all crisp, cheerful arrangements that are suitably seasonal but also faithful to her bright country-pop. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
