Album Description

GREAT CD FOR NSYNC FANS

THIS CD IS HALF REGULAR NSYNC MUSIC AND HALF CHRISTMAS MUSIC. I JUST GOT THIS CD AND IT WAS KINDA WEIRD LISTENING TO CHRISTMAS MUSIC IN MAY. THE SONG "I DRIVE MYSELF CRAZY" IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT DUE TO THE FACT THAT THIS CD IS AN IMPORT. IT ALSO HAS
"GOD MUST HAVE SPENT A LITLLE MORE TIME ON YOU", AND "I JUST WANNA BE WITH YOU" FROM THERE FIRST CD. THERE'S A FEW SONGS ON THERE NOT RELEASED ON THERE FIRST CD BUT ONCE AGAIN ITS AN IMPORT. ON THE CHRISTMAS END IT HAS THERE SMASH HIT "MERRY CHRISTMAS HAPPY HOLIDAYS". I LOVE THAT SONG ONE OF MY FAVORITES. ALL THE MEMBERS OF THE BAND WROTE IT TOGETHER AND SHOWED THERE FAMILY THERE TRUE HOLIDAY MEANINING. WELL ENOUGH SAID BUY THE CD. May 25, 2007

question....

ok, i bought this cd somewhere else today (I still love you Amazon!) I had seen this cd before in stores, and i remember having seen family affair right after "I just wanna be with you" in print on the back. The one i just bought has nothing after that song on the back, it just has another song. Since it's really "hidden" does that mean they took it off but it's still there? I have read the replies and it seems it's a musical interlude of some sort. I don't know, I haven't opened the cd yet. If anyone knows what's up, post. :) May 10, 2001

It's worth getting this!

First of all I love *nsync and all their music...they are truely amazing! This import CD is well worth it...trust me. "You Drive Me Crazy" is such a hot song and makes you wonder why they never released it here! And "Thinking of you (*I drive myself crazy*)" sounds so great! The way the guitar is in the beging and this version is awesome!

So the moral of the story is....get this CD...it's worth it :-) April 26, 2001

Terrific CD!

This is an absolutely great Winter Album. It's got terrific Christmas songs and non-Christmas songs. The non-Christmas songs aren't on the import version of the debut album. U Drive Me Crazy isn't available on any other album. If you want some terrific Christmas music & non-Christmas music, GET THIS CD! (Especially if you're an *NSYNC fan.) You'll never regret it.

Everything About the Winter Album

First of all let me say this, I LUV *N SYNC and this CD is really amazing! The first half(6 songs) of this German released CD are anytime and New Year's songs while the other 6 are Christmas songs. Some of the first songs are different versions of the US releases. Scroll down for a quick synopsis of each song. Stay *N SYNC everybody!

U Drive Me Crazy(Radio Edit)- fast song with solo verses by Justin and JC. Kind of like a cross between "I Want You Back" and "Tearin' Up My Heart"

(God Must Have Spent) A Little More Time On You- REALLY sweet ballad about how precious your loved one is. Amazing harmonies in this song.

Thinking of You(I Drive Myself Crazy)- Very different from the US release. JC sings the first verse instead of Chris. Really beautiful ballad about missing your love.

Everything I Own- Sorta-slow song, not a ballad, but with ballad type lyrics. Really sweet and about wanting someone back who you let go cause you weren't really thinking. Lance has a speaking part and a little solo part, kinda like in a stack.

I Just Wanna Be With You- Basically the same as the US version, maybe a little longer. Fast song with JC and Justin on the verses.

Kiss Me At Midnight- Fast, party song for New Year's Eve. This song is probably my favorite cause of the great dance beats and the great improv and vocals.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays- The first of the Christmas songs. Fast, cute song about celebrating Christmas. It's cute cause Justin starts laughing while doing improv. In the end you hear all the guys laughing and talking at once to eachother.

All I Want Is You (This Christmas)- Sweet, slow song about not wanting any gifts, just your girlfriend/boyfriend on Christmas. Chris actually sings one of the verses.

Under My Tree- Sweet, not really slow or fast song about just about being with the one you love.

Love's In Our Hearts On Christmas Day- Really sweet, slow song about being away from the one you love on Christmas, but knowing that you will still make it through. Justin and JC do main vocals, mostly Justin though.

In Love On Christmas- Starts out with a cool version of "Jingle Bells." A little different, it might take you a while to get used to. JC and Justin do main vocals with a little harmony by Joey(?) or Chris. This is the longest song on the album at over 4 minutes.

The First Noel- The familer tune with *N SYNC's trademark harmonies that just give you chills. This song is so incredible it made me cry the first few times I heard it. JC and Justin sing the verses. The haromines in this song will supprise you with their beauty even if you are already a huge *N SYNC fan because they are so amazing. November 5, 2000
