The first in a projected series of yearly seasonal EPs, One Christmas , thankfully, a more eccentric holiday album than LeAnn Rimes' What a Wonderful World. That 2004 Christmas record played it straight, but here Rimes launches into the 1953 novelty "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" on the second track, then slides into a soulful rendition of "Blue Christmas" after that.
