It Must Be Christmas

The album features collaborations with Boyz II Men, Brad Paisley and Alan Jackson.

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic rated the album three stars out of five.

"[It] does everything a modern mainstream holiday album should do," writes Erlewine, "it plays upon memories of Christmas while appealing to the moment at hand."

He added that the original songs "feel like radio tunes" rather than seasonal material.

[1] Chuck Dauphin of country music blog Sounds Like Nashville wrote a positive review in which he praised Young's "classic approach" to the holiday fare.
