The Sixpence None the Richer singer knocked off this extended EP in 2006 during her solo career phase. It doesn't sound much different from Sixpence's work, but those who like one will like the other. Two original songs, the title song and "Eternal Gifts," are achingly sincere, and she does a version of "Maybe This Christmas" from the Nettwerk series of compilations that was originally performed by Ron Sexsmith. Covers include a duet with Gabe Dixon of "Baby It's Cold Outside" and her version of "Last Christmas," fairly faithful to the Wham original. A version of "O Holy Night" rounds out this collection. Update: Ken Ingram flags my lack of show tunes knowledge. I had "Hard Candy Christmas" as an original but it's actually the song from "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas."
