Moved "Jingle Bells" from a "2" to a "1".
Moved "Let It Snow" from a "0" to a "2".
Moved "My Gift Is You" from a "0" to a "1". The main thing here though is that this song vaguely has a holiday feel to it.
Moved "Christmas Eve" from a "1" to a "0".

Summary:
I wasn't fond of some of the album's original holiday tracks. In particular, I felt one or two tracks lacked any relation to the holiday season. With that being said, despite the ratio of original tracks, I found the album more pleasing to listen to compared to A Very Trainor Christmas (Meghan Trainor holiday album).

Overall Rating (Standard): 3.6/5
Overall Rating (2018 Deluxe): 4.0/5
Overall Rating (2020 Deluxe): 4.2/5
Favorite Song: "You Make It Feel Like Christmas" (with Blake Shelton)
