Christmas Through Your Eyes Songwriting Credits by Gloria Estefan

Estefan sings all eleven tracks and wrote exactly one. The title song is hers with Diane Warren, and every other copyright on the record belongs to someone else: Irving Berlin on 'White Christmas', Jule Styne and Sammy Cahn on 'Let It Snow', Mel Torme and Bob Wells on 'The Christmas Song', Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane on 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas'. Two tracks reach outside the American songbook. 'Arbolito de Navidad' is by the Colombian composer Jose Benito Barros Palomino, and 'Silent Night' is the 1818 carol whose words are Joseph Mohr's and whose melody is Franz Xaver Gruber's. On a covers record the creative authorship shifts to the arrangers, which is why the per-track credits matter here: Patrick Williams took the four orchestral cuts, Rob Mounsey three, and Juanito Marquez and Clay Ostwald one each.
