If you're looking for something out of the ordinary for the season, The Lost Christmas Eve is for you. This final entry in the Trans-Siberian Orchestra's rock opera trilogy is perhaps their most ambitious and complex in the series. Like its predecessors, The Lost Christmas Eve tells the story of heaven's youngest angel called back to earth to continue Jesus' unfinished work. This time he lands in New York City to help redeem not only Christmas, but the soul of humankind itself with a story line that rivals anything Frank Capra ever dreamt up for the big screen. Conceived and composed by Aerosmith and Savatage producer Paul O'Neill, most of the song were penned O'Neill, Robert Kinkle, and Savatage founder and keyboardist Jon Oliva, and features the rest of the seminal Florida metal band on the record. While not as bombastic as Savatage's fourteen rock epics which touch on topics as diverse as the Russian Revolution, the 15th century explorer Ferdinand Magellan's descendants, and Beethoven's last night, the record still has a grandiose, almost over-arching baroque feel, with its prog-rock organ swells and electronic alchemy. The best moments are during the soaring instrumentals, on tracks like the "Wisdom of Snow," "Wish Litz," "Christmas Bells, Carousels & Time," and the majestic rendering of "O Come All Ye Faithful." --Jaan Uhelszki

A very different Christmas CD January 7, 2009
M. Murphy (Mesa, AZ United States)
This was unlike other Trans Siberian Orchestra music I have heard. Many tracks have vocals and while it was enjoyable it was not what I expected. You may want to listen to the sample tracks to make sure this is the CD for you.
Lost Christmas Eve review December 26, 2008
Dryheat 45 (Phoenix, AZ USA)
This album has been reviewed many times with some very outstanding reviewers, so I won't go on ad nauseum about it. I attended one of the TSO concerts and I would classify the album as a great soundtrack to the show. If you have not attended a concert, I encourage you to do so; the experience is magnificent.
 Terrific Rock Christmas CD December 18, 2008
Joshua Lee
This CD has quickly become my favorite Christmas CD. The combination of catchy melodies and excellent rock performances are unmatched by any other group I have heard.
 Euro-Metal Meets Christmas? December 17, 2008
Slim Pickens
This CD reeks of Euro-Metal of the worst kind! I give it two stars because there are some decent musicians who play the music. It's just that this music was done and done and done throughout the 80s. I agree with the other reviewers who have said they couldn't believe this music was for real. It is so over the top as to come across as a caricature of bad 80s metal.
