Danny Gokey – ‘Christmas Is Here’ album review 3.5 Overall Score Label:BMG We Like:“The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year” Danny Gokey – ‘Christmas Is Here’ album review CCM Magazine November 16, 2015 Christmas may be here, but Danny Gokey’s vocals are always in season. Performing an album full of classics, including vocally demanding selections like “Mary Did You Know,” Irving Berlin’s “White Christmas” and the traditional “O, Holy Night,” Gokey’s silky singing will warmly fill your dwelling on the coldest of holiday evenings. Mostly reflecting the gleeful exuberance of the season, the album does close with a touching rendition of “Give Me Jesus,” appropriately reminding listeners of why we celebrate. The two originals co-penned by Gokey, “Lift Up Your Eyes” and the title track “Christmas Is Here,” will closely appeal to the American Idol demographic, and his performance of “The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year” may eventually become a Christmas compilation standard.
