Christmas in My Heart is the first Christmas album and the fifth studio album by German recording artist Sarah Connor. Released by X-Cell Records on 18 November 2005 (2005-11-18), the album features cover versions of popular Christmas tunes and original material. Connor worked with frequent collaborators Rob Tyger and Kay Denar on the album.

Chart performance

[edit]

Christmas in My Heart peaked at number six on the Austrian, German, and Swiss Albums Chart.

In 2006 after a baby break Sarah decided to reissue "Christmas in my heart" with a new lead single "Best side of life". "The Best side of life" was featured in Coca-Cola's German Christmas promotional campaign. The single reached #4 on the German charts. The reissue didn't fare as well, however, debuting at #49 on the German charts, peaking at #25. On the same date Sarah also released a concert DVD of her performing the Christmas tunes under the same name as the album.
