    Eh, Don't know about this one. In my opinion, she has gotten blander over the years and her voice is not as appealing as it used to be. I know that she will slay this album when she performs it live but I can't listen to this after hearing her other albums.

    Summary: Not her best album, Voice is worse, Bland
    Grade: 39%

    Clarkson takes the view that Christmas is as much about wistfulness and unfulfilled wishes as it is unbridled joy.

    Wrapped in Red is a stylistic maverick, for sure, but the original tunes are worthy of sitting next to the standards, and when Kelly sings, it’s like Christmas all year round.

    Wrapped in Red should prove a welcome gift to fans of the powerful pop star as Kelly Clarkson mixes classic carols and hymns with several originals co-written by the singer.
