A solid collection of seasonal favorites, the album features Midler in typically excellent voice backed with a kicky jazz combo and orchestra. Along with the usual standards, Midler dips into more personal waters, recalling her own Hawaiian childhood with the traditional island tune \"Mele Kalikimaka\" and performing a tongue-in-cheek rewrite of her previous hit \"From A Distance.\" A duet with Johnny Mathis on a medley of Yuletide favorites is equally endearing.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49268236648735,"sku":"886978789822","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/ee25ddc03787f1492441849dabb7f3b7_4a97a519-3a93-4253-bd9d-af5727b4da9b.jpg?v=1777685965","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/cool-yule-1","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
