"My wife remembered this album from when she was a kid. So I ordered it for her. The album is an import from Japan so much of the writing is in Japanese. But the songs themselves and much of the text inside are in English.



We had to risk it since Amazon didnt know if it's in English. Wanted to make sure future purchasers know that it's in English.

"I absolutley love this CD! But beware of the title, and picture on the CD cover! The 7 songs are NOT sung by the Disney Characters like Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Pluto. There is only 1 song of this 7 song CD that features Disney characters singing, and that is Song 5 (Chipmunk Song. As the title suggests, it is sung by Chip and Dale, with a breif appearance from Donald who interupts them!! So if you are hoping for Disney Characters singing these songs, look elsewhere. Unless you want to buy it for the only Disney related song sung by Chip and Dale!



I wish I could read Japanese, because that is what the print is in, except for the title of the songs!



As for the songs, they are sung I think by the same person who sings on The Disney Children's Classics albums 1-4. That is Larry Groce. Wow, this guy is so relaxing, soothing, and just plain awesome. He is sort of John Denver-ish or children's singer-songwriter Red Grammer.



If you have heard Red Grammer's music, then you might like this guy, sort of has that quality. If you like John Denver, Larry Groce sounds very similar!



A superb chorus sings "Do You Hear What I Hear?". They are called the Mike Sammes Singers.



I had the tape of this thing years ago when I was a child, but as a previous reviewer said, the song listing is different. I desperately missed that tape, so I looked for it on here, and I cannot believe my luck!



This CD has inspired me to get the Disney Children's Classics CD's! All 4 Volumes! I also plan to look for more CD's by the Mike Sammes Singers...



All in all, don't be fooled by the cover of this CD! This is a 7 song album of superb Christmas tunes that is fitting for the Holidays sung by Larry Groce.



And as far as for the Disney Children's Classics, they are not even sung by Disney characters, but Larry Groce also! These albums should be retitled Children's Classics by Larry Groce. And the Disney Art is misleading for those who expect Disney Characters to sing on albums with artwork depicting them on the front!



So, all songs are sung by Larry Groce. One song, song 2 is sung by Mike Sammes Singers, while Chip and Dale do song 5, "The Chipmunk Song"..



Disney fans wanting Disney characters singing should look elsewere!



Enjoy!"

Not enough songs!

"The CD cover is the same as the old LP we had purchased in the 1970s, the title was the same too, but the content was only seven songs compared to thirteen on the original. It was quite disappointing, but when I notified Amazon.com of this, their response was speedy and most satisfactory. Delivery of the CD was prompt, arriving exactly on the day it was expected, so while I was disappointed in the lesser content of the CD compared to the LP, I was more than happy with the service provided by Amazon.com."
