“The song, which speaks about sweet revenge, has
been revived very successfully by Cynthia Basinet. While there are hints of the original Julie London version, Ms. Basinet's
rendition is particularly bluesy, while being a bit more sensual. Accompanied by a sensitive rhythm section, the singer displays
her beautiful voice on a version full of desire, regret, and quiet satisfaction at how the broken love affair turned out.
The results are haunting and memorable.” -Scott Yanow, author

"Known for her
smoldering seasonal version of “Santa Baby,” actress, singer Cynthia Basinet releases a jazzy version of “The
Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire).” This gorgeous version of Nat King Cole’s holiday
nugget was arranged by Tony Bennett’s arranger and pianist Lee Musiker, and while the song features A-List musicians,
it’s Ms. Basinet’s approach to the vocals that steals the show! Warm, rich and delightful… Cynthia Basinet’s
version of “The Christmas Song” is a must have download this holiday season!" ~SmoothJazz.com
