Should have read the review on amazon first... This is a poor quality DVD and I do not suggest anyone else gets it.
The "Sights" in this "sing-along" are just pictures of paintings or drawings taken with a poor quality camera, or they could also be someone's old family photos or videos (no idea who these people are). Although the pictures are Christmassy, I wouldn't say that they all really capture the spirit of the holiday.
The "Sounds" on this disc are also just bad. Only every other song has people singing, if they wanted an instrumental disc they should have made it one, or if they wanted a true "sing-ALONG" they should have gotten the songs with people singing. Now the quality of the songs and the choice of songs is to be expected. The quality is poor just like the rest of the dvd. The choice is perfectly fine, and does contain many religious songs.
The thing that really made me write this review though is the bouncing ball is always 1-note behind! How are you supposed to sing along when the screen tells you to be slow with the music! and for the songs without people singing you really have to know the song to be able to follow along.
The one possible redeeming thing is it comes with a good copy of the 1940s Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer cartoon short. Better than some other copies I've seen, but not worth the rest of this DVD.
I won't even be posting this back in to the system.
