“They're not Christmas songs, okay, they're just great songs,” Cher assured Billboard. “And I never say that, because I almost never like what I do.”
In a Paper in a magazine interview to promote the album, she candidly revealed, “I just never really liked my voice.” If I had my choice I would probably have another one, but I didn't get my choice. I have my mother's voice.'
